About Mim
Mim McConachie works in an approachable, practical way to help people build confidence and set boundaries. She draws on four years of experience and a BACP registration to offer calm, straightforward support for anxiety, stress and relationship-related concerns. Mim understands how hard it can be to speak up or say no.
She describes herself as a recovering people-pleaser and aims to create a non-judgemental space where people can practise finding their voice.
Background and approach
Sessions are relaxed and paced to the individual, with an emphasis on small, achievable steps. In meetings she focuses on what shows up day to day - anxious thoughts, difficulty communicating, low self-esteem and trouble managing life changes. Practical tools form a core part of her work, such as strategies to reduce overwhelm and ways to experiment with boundary-setting.
Conversations also look at patterns like people-pleasing and how they affect feelings and behaviour. She also pays attention to body image concerns, attachment difficulties, guilt and shame, isolation, and social anxiety. The aim is to help people feel steadier and more able to make choices that reflect their priorities.
Over time this can include changing old habits and developing clearer self-care routines. Mim offers sessions by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, so people can choose what suits their life. To begin, visitors complete a short matching questionnaire and then book sessions according to the therapist's timetable.

Focus areas and approaches
What Mim works with
Everything Mim lists, in their own terms.
Online support
She also uses person-centred ways of working that prioritise listening and acceptance. That means sessions give space to what matters most to the individual and to build trust, which supports work on self-esteem, shame and relationship concerns.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Mim will discuss different ways of working and decide together which to try based on the person's goals, preferences and what feels most helpful in session. The plan can be adjusted as progress is made.
Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls let people use visual cues and more natural conversation, phone sessions can be shorter or need less bandwidth, live chat suits those who prefer typing, and text messaging provides ongoing check-ins between sessions. These options give flexibility so the person can choose what works best for them and their routine.
