The most forward-thinking and most successful employers know the value of good staff. They often use an Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) because of the benefits it brings to both employer and employee. They provide their employees with a highly effective problem-solving resource to ensure their employees feel valued and supported. There are no upfront fees, we only invoice for sessions used.
Nightingale Counselling is unique in the fact that we will assess the individual’s issues and ensure they are aligned to the most effective and appropriate counsellor and counselling discipline that best suits their needs.
Different models of counselling and therapy bring different results and therefore, as a duty of care to your staff, we want to ensure the work is effective and brings the right results as soon as possible. Our aim is to help your employee regain their ability to work at full capacity.
We will see your employee within 48 hours from the initial contact.
Booking your initial appointments
In the first instance generally, we will be asked by the employees HR department or manager to contact the employee directly to book a session for them or the employee can access the EAP service by self-referring, confidentially. During the initial call, the employee will be assessed and referred to the most effective counsellor.
They will be invited to see their counsellor in our consulting rooms near Charing Cross in Glasgow. We also offer telephone sessions, Facetime, WhatsApp, or online sessions via Zoom, Skype and Microsoft Teams. Most companies offer four to six funded sessions for employees. If further work is required, we will seek permission from the source of the referral. If it is a self-referral, we can offer four funded sessions without your company knowing who accessed the service.
Testimonial
Our organisation has worked with Nightingale Counselling for six years and have found it to be an invaluable proactive service that works in partnership with our organisation. Nightingale has successfully worked with employees from various areas within our organisation and has helped staff with varying personal and work-related issues. From positive feedback received from our employees, we would be confident to recommend Nightingale Counselling as a professional expert employee counselling service to any prospective client.

Florence and the team are amazing! I think it is very unique that Florence does not apply a one size fits all approach to employee assistance. Florence has a chat with the individual prior to allocating them a therapist to ensure they receive the correct therapy and therapist for them. So often individuals don’t get the most from therapy as they don’t connect with the therapist. I can honestly say this has never been the experience of my organisation, everyone who has used the service speaks highly of the counsellor and help they were given.

We take the mental health and wellbeing of our team seriously—not just in theory, but in practice. That’s why we partnered with Nightingale Counselling, and I can personally say it’s been one of the most valuable decisions we’ve made.
I’ve been accessing Nightingale’s support myself, and it’s been immensely helpful—both personally and professionally. Having a safe, non-judgemental space to talk through challenges has allowed me to reflect more clearly, navigate pressure more effectively, and ultimately feel more grounded and resilient in the work I do.
It’s not just about managing difficult moments—it’s about safeguarding your wellbeing, building self-awareness, and showing up better for the people you lead and work alongside. Nightingale’s approach is thoughtful, compassionate and rooted in real understanding. It’s been a huge asset, and I’d recommend them to anyone looking to develop not just as a professional, but as a person.
We’re proud to have them as part of our support structure.

Stephen made such a difference to my life when I was feeling overwhelmed and low. He suggested we do CBT together and that was the right choice for me. Stephen was very intuitive and instinctive and seemed to understand what I was trying to convey even if I couldn’t find the words. After only the first session with him I already felt more able to cope, and after our three sessions I felt a hundred times better. Now, a few months down the line, I am still using the tools and techniques Stephen taught me about. He is a star!
Employee Experience
When I stepped through the door at Nightingale Counselling, my self-esteem was somewhere between my socks and the pavement. I had some really destructive habits and traits that were unknown to me but were causing absolute havoc in my personal and professional life. My counsellor quickly identified the negative patterns and was able to articulate them in a way that gave me many “light bulb moments”. It was great to be able to openly talk and honestly be listened to, but on top of this I came away with life skills that I will be able to use whenever times get tough. I wouldn’t like to think what would have happened if I didn’t have my time at Nightingale Counselling
Employee Experience
When I first walked into my first session I was at rock bottom and spiralling further but Stephen put me at ease almost instantly and over the courses of our sessions he installed better ways of thinking, gave me the tools and helped me build my confidence back through a very difficult time in my life. He listened and he helped change my point of view about myself, let me feel that my feelings were valid and allowed me to be more positive than I have been in my life. I highly recommend him and his process if you are feeling you need help. I can’t thank him enough for helping me.
Employee Experience
Redundancy support
Sadly, due to recent events, some companies will have no other option but to make some of their employees redundant. Although most employees understand why a company may have to make this sad decision, it can still leave employees feeling a deep sense of loss and grief. Some clients will suffer a detrimental effect on their self-esteem and confidence. Employees may also feel trauma and become stuck in a cycle of depression and anxiety.
Offering employees one-to-one counselling to work through their feelings about losing their job, can help them to come to terms with the situation and help them to put it into a better perspective. We would recommend six sessions, four sessions in counselling and two sessions of coaching, to formulate a plan of action to move forward in a more positive way.
