information DESCRIPTION

NEECS was established in 1995 to support the people of North East Edinburgh improve their mental wellbeing. We provide free and donation based one-to-one professional counselling for young people and adults who are experiencing poor mental health.

Our aims are to reduce anxiety and depression, build resilience, and equip clients with the tools and confidence to make positive choices about their future

We are proud and privileged to serve the people of Leith, Lochend, Restalrig, and beyond into parts of Piershill, Pilrig, Newhaven and Portobello. The area is diverse, vibrant and creative, but it also represents some of the most deprived postcodes of Edinburgh.

NEECS is a small charity, but we make a significant difference to local people’s lives. Counselling offers a safe space for clients to talk through their mental health difficulties, explore their feelings and process their thoughts without judgement. We teach coping techniques, offer tools grounded in psychological theory, and build clients’ self-confidence so that they develop constructive, effective strategies to overcome challenges and make positive decisions going forward.
