A therapist provides professional support for mental health and emotional wellbeing - from anxiety, depression and stress to relationship difficulties, grief and life transitions.

Anstruther is the largest of the East Neuk fishing villages, sitting on a sheltered harbour that was once one of the busiest herring ports in Scotland.

The Scottish Fisheries Museum, housed in historic buildings around the harbour, tells the story of Scotland's fishing industry and is one of the best small museums in the country.

Anstruther is famous for its fish and chip shops - the Anstruther Fish Bar has won national awards and draws visitors from across Scotland.

The village has a charming mix of crow-stepped gables, pantiled roofs and narrow wynds typical of the East Neuk and is a popular base for exploring the Fife Coastal Path.

Fife is a large peninsula in eastern Scotland, bounded by the Firth of Forth to the south and the Firth of Tay to the north - a geography that has given it a distinct identity and earned it the traditional title of 'The Kingdom of Fife'.

Dunfermline is the largest settlement and a former capital of Scotland, granted city status in 2022, while Glenrothes serves as the administrative centre and St Andrews is known worldwide as the home of golf and Scotland's oldest university.

The south-west of Fife has a strong industrial heritage - coal mining and shipbuilding shaped towns like Cowdenbeath, Lochgelly and Rosyth - while the East Neuk coastline is defined by a string of picturesque fishing villages: Anstruther, Crail, Pittenweem and St Monans.

Inland, the Howe of Fife is fertile agricultural land dotted with market towns like Cupar, Auchtermuchty and Falkland, the last of these home to a beautifully preserved Renaissance palace.

Fife is well connected to Edinburgh via the Forth Road Bridge and Queensferry Crossing and to Dundee via the Tay Road Bridge, making much of the region practical for commuters while retaining a strong sense of local identity.
