About

Dr. Susan McGarvie, a Mindfulness-Based Therapeutic Coach, draws upon a vast and expanding body of research that highlights the unnecessary suffering caused by unconscious beliefs and patterns. Through mindfulness-based therapy, she assists clients in uncovering and challenging these limiting or outdated ideas through a process of guided self-study and self-discovery.
Her approach goes beyond simply discussing problems or past history; instead, it focuses on examining how these issues manifest in present behaviours, habits, and emotions. Through collaborative facilitation, Dr. McGarvie helps clients bring mindful awareness to their beliefs, memories, and behaviours, empowering them to make conscious choices that lead to more fulfilling lives and relationships.
Prior to establishing her private practice, Dr. McGarvie spent nearly two decades working in various sectors including healthcare, non-profit organisations, and academia. Her roles encompassed coaching, counselling, consulting, strategic leadership, and training and development at different organisational levels.
Driven by a passion for facilitating personal growth and development, Dr. McGarvie's research has primarily centred on exploring ways to support individuals, particularly healthcare and care professionals, in their journey towards self-improvement and fulfilment. Her approach is informed by the plethora of research in positive psychology, mindfulness, and adult learning, ensuring that her practice remains up-to-date and effective.

“Evidence-based care tailored to each patient — taking the time to explain options and shared decisions.”
