About Us

Lanarkshire Counselling Services 

Liber8 Lanarkshire is a grassroots counselling and support organisation. We provide a wide range of community-based services and counselling services to adults and young people throughout Lanarkshire. Our reputation has been established over 18 years of working with individuals, groups and families requiring support in their recovery from poor mental health, alcohol misuse or substance use. We have worked extensively within the public, voluntary, and private sectors throughout Lanarkshire, and have developed links with all the key agencies and services to support those struggling with mental health. 

From the beginning, we set out to offer services that were tailored to target specific groups, focusing on individuals, families and communities struggling to cope within those sectors. We continue to follow this ethos. Today, our primary focus is to offer therapeutic interventions, including Person-Centred and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. In addition to psychotherapy services, we also provide psychological and psychosocial interventions.
