The McGilligan Practice in short
The McGilligan Practice offers counselling and psychotherapy from business premises on Stafford Park, covering anxiety, low mood, ADHD and autism support alongside relationship and family pressures. Our view is that breadth from a professional setting is the appeal: neurodivergence-related support sits beside general counselling, with an initial consultation for people weighing whether the approach suits them.
Sessions run from Suite A at the Business Development Centre on Stafford Park, serving Telford and the surrounding area, with contact through the site's initial consultation route. The published scope is wide, from anxiety and low mood to ADHD and autism support alongside relationship and family pressures. That breadth suits people unsure exactly what kind of support fits.
Customer evidence for the McGilligan Practice is a single 5.0 Google review, and Google is the only public review source on record. This review reads that lone rating as encouragement rather than proof. Nothing on the wider record contradicts it, but nothing corroborates it yet.
What counts against the practice, in our judgement, is the slender customer base combined with no stated professional registration, session fees, insurance details or trading history. It suits anyone seeking counselling or neurodivergence-related support from Stafford Park premises who will confirm the credentials in person. The Stafford Park setting gives the practice a professional front door that suits uncertain first-time clients.
Our verdict
Our judgement: The McGilligan Practice suits you if you want counselling or neurodivergence-related support from Stafford Park business premises [1]. The published scope is broad, from anxiety to ADHD and family pressures [1]. What counts against it is a single-review record and no stated registration, fees or insurance details [1] [2].

Questions about The McGilligan Practice
Is the McGilligan Practice any good?
Our judgement: plausible for broad-scope support. It ranks tenth of ten in our September round, with counselling plus ADHD and autism support from Stafford Park premises [1]. The caveats are a single Google review and no stated credentials. Use the initial consultation to judge the fit. Go in with your questions written down.
Is the McGilligan Practice on a professional register?
No professional registration could be sourced from the registers, the website or the platforms checked [1]. This is the barest registration picture in the round, so the direct questions matter more here than anywhere else. Ask which body, if any, holds the practitioners' registration and what supervision sits behind the work, and how to complain if needed, before you commit.
How much does the McGilligan Practice charge?
No session fees are published on the pages checked, though an initial consultation is offered [1]. Ask for the fee, session length and cancellation terms in writing before the first paid session, and compare the figure against one other quote. With no published starting point, the written reply is the whole price picture, so keep it.
Where does the McGilligan Practice work?
From Suite A at the Business Development Centre on Stafford Park, serving Telford and the surrounding area [1]. Contact runs through the site's initial consultation route. The initial consultation is the way to test both the approach and the journey. Send your postcode to confirm the arrangements suit you, mentioning evenings or weekends if days do not suit.
How is the McGilligan Practice ranked?
It ranks tenth of the ten psychotherapists in our September round, the pick for counselling and neurodivergence support at Stafford Park [1] [2]. Practices appear in score order, with what clients say counting most. Its single-review base is the thinnest in the round, shared with two other practices, and the breadth of the stated scope is what distinguishes it from the practices above.
How do I get a quote from the McGilligan Practice?
No fees are published, so use the initial consultation route to ask for the session fee, length and cancellation terms in writing [1]. Describe your needs, including any neurodivergence-related support, so the reply reflects the right kind of sessions. Compare the written reply against one other Telford quote. Keep both replies for your records.
What do the McGilligan Practice's reviews say?
The public record holds a single Google review at the top rating, with no other platform carrying the practice [2]. One rating reads as encouragement rather than proof, so the stated scope and the consultation carry the firmer part of the story. If you become a client, an honest review would give the next reader far more to go on.
