Welcome to Eilidh Macdonald-Harte, Psychotherapist, EMDR therapy for trauma, Perinatal mental health and Clinical supervision
We are delighted to welcome Eilidh Macdonald-Harte to Mulberry House.
Eilidh is a psychotherapist whose approach is integrative and person-centred, drawing primarily from psychodynamic and neurobiological understandings of trauma to create a therapeutic space where healing, recovery, growth, and change can occur. Eilidh is also a EMDR therapist, perinatal mental health counsellor and offers clinical supervision.
Eilidh creates a safe, confidential space where building trust, respect, and genuine care are central to the therapeutic relationship. Eilidh believes that therapy is as individual as the person who steps into the therapy room. Each therapeutic relationship is a partnership, and the work together becomes a unique co-creation tailored entirely to what you need. She works at your pace, led by your needs, holding deep respect for your lived experience and believing that you are the expert on your own journey.
As an EMDR therapist, Eilidh offers Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing for clients whose difficulties stem from traumatic experiences. EMDR is an evidence-based approach that helps the brain process difficult memories that have become 'stuck' in our physiology. Through bilateral stimulation - typically gentle eye movements or tapping - EMDR helps integrate these experiences so they no longer carry the same emotional charge or disruptive power in daily life. This work is always done at your pace, within the established therapeutic relationship, and only when you feel ready.
Eilidh also specialises in Perinatal Mental Health Counselling, providing compassionate, specialist support for people navigating the emotional complexities of pregnancy, birth, and early parenthood. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, birth trauma, or the challenges of adjusting to parenthood, counselling offers a safe, confidential space to explore your feelings and find your way forward.
The perinatal period is from conception through 3 years after birth and can bring unexpected emotional challenges. Many people experience anxiety or low mood during pregnancy or after birth, and these feelings are more common than we think. Having a space to talk about your experience, without judgement, can help you understand where these feelings come from and how to move through them.
Perinatal counselling can support you through fertility challenges and loss, anxiety or depression during pregnancy, preparation for birth, postnatal depression and anxiety, birth trauma and PTSD, relationship changes during the transition to parenthood, and the emotional adjustment of becoming a parent. This support is available to all parents and partners, recognising that perinatal mental health affects the whole family.
Eilidh works with people experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, life transitions, grief and loss, trauma, and the general challenges of being human in an often-difficult world. She also works with those seeking personal development and deeper self-understanding. Whatever brings you to therapy, she believes in your capacity for growth and change, holding faith in your resilience and ability to heal, adapt, and flourish.
As a clinical supervisor, Eilidh provides professional support to other therapists and counsellors, helping them reflect on their practice and continue developing their therapeutic skills.
Eilidh works every Tuesday at Mulberry House. If you would like to book an appointment with Eilidh, please call us at Mulberry house on 0131 225 2012 or email enquiries@mulberryhouse.co.uk
