Calum Ramsay
Calum Ramsay is a Registered Clinical Counsellor who uses an integrative and experiential approach, drawing from narrative therapy and emotion-focused therapy. He believes therapy is a space to reframe our inner narratives, explore emotional patterns, and build self-compassion. With a background in engineering and high-performance sports, Calum brings a unique, grounded perspective to mental health care. Clients often say they feel understood, especially those who were previously skeptical about therapy or struggled to find the right fit. He has a special interest in self-esteem, identity, and helping people navigate internal conflict or life transitions. Calum welcomes you to connect—on your terms, at your pace—when you're ready to explore what change could look like.
