Nightingale Consultancy | Consultancy Services Based in Glasgow

Welcome to Nightingale Consultancy

Hello, my name is Florence Gray. I am the Managing Director and Senior Counselling Consultant at Nightingale Counselling Consultancy. I have worked in private practice with couples, individuals and organisations for twelve years. I founded the company in Glasgow in 2002, after I completed my three year training programme with Glasgow Marriage Counselling Service, the Scottish branch of Relate.

I also draw on other counselling disciplines and methodologies such as Person Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Transactional Analysis and Coaching.

Prior to counselling I had a long and successful career spanning twenty years working in Glasgow and London in large corporate organisations in a variety of roles, both as an internal and external consultant. I gained expertise in Coaching, Training, Consultancy and Business Development. .

I have worked for Rothmans, SmithKline Beecham, Max Factor and Proctor and Gamble as an employee in Glasgow and London. As an independent consultant, I have worked with companies in plant hire, construction, engineering, shipping, finance, social care, insurance, interior design, street papers and fast food retail. Nightingale maintains a strict policy of confidentiality with all our clients. We never disclose the companies we work with.

We all need someone to talk to who is non judgemental, really listening and honest in their responses. If you are in a senior position in your organisation or own your organisation, there are very few people you can speak to who will only focus on you. When you talk to family members they can only grasp a certain amount and generally want you to detach from work when you are at home. If you talk to a business associate they will often end up talking about themselves. This can leave you feeling frustrated. Working with us gives you the space to focus on you, your organisation and the challenges and ideas you have for growth and development and assist you to implement changes and develop your vision for the future.

TESTIMONIALS

Company Director

As a long established business we had a large restructure within the company last year, with a key member of staff moving on. We very quickly identified that we needed specialist help and after much research and several recommendations, engaged the services of Nightingale Consultancy. As this was the first time we had used the services of a consultant, we were very quickly reassured and very impressed by the professional, friendly manner in which Florence extracted the necessary information from us to identify the correct candidate. Many of these attributes we were not even aware we required ourselves. She subsequently found and interviewed, alongside myself, each prospective candidate until we found the right one, who has proven to be a huge asset to our company and a central part of our success. We thought our staff member who moved on was irreplaceable but soon found a new candidate who "ticked all the right boxes" and so much more. Good job, very well done!

HR Manager

Our organisation has worked with Nightingale Employee Counselling service for three years and has found it to be an invaluable pro-active service that works in partnership with our organisation. Nightingale has successfully worked with employees from various areas within our organisation and has helped staff with varying personal and work related issues. From positive feedback received from our employees, we would be confident to recommend Nightingale as a professional expert employee counselling service to any prospective client.

Consultant

Florence instinctively knows when to be stern, sympathetic or humorous - whatever it is you can be sure she has your best interests at heart. I can safely say I have always left her consulting room lighter-footed than on arrival and, as a result of our work, I am now in a stable and happier place where I am in control of my life.

Company Managing Director

Florence has been an excellent ‘sounding board’ to explore my inner self in a positive, constructive manner. She has helped me face personal and business issues that I was ignoring. I feel the real benefit of our time together. Through talking to Florence, she has helped me develop into a more emotionally secure and naturally confident person. In essence I have become the person I always wanted to be.
