About me
I’m Cathy, a Psychotherapeutic Counsellor and Hypnotherapist based in Milton Keynes.
I offer a calm, supportive space where you can talk openly and make sense of whatever you’re going through. Your mental health matters and having a safe place to explore your thoughts and feelings can make a real difference in how you feel.
My approach is warm and collaborative. We work together at your pace, shaping therapy around what feels most helpful for you. I draw from a range of approaches — including person‑centred, psychodynamic, and CBT — so our sessions can include deeper reflection, practical tools, or a blend of both.
I have experience supporting people through anxiety, low mood, grief, relationship difficulties, and many other challenges. Whatever you’re facing, you don’t have to navigate it alone.
If you’d like to see whether we’re a good fit or have any questions, you’re welcome to get in touch for a free, no pressure, 15‑minute discovery call.

My experience has shaped my compassionate and flexible approach, allowing me to tailor support to your unique needs. I understand that no two experiences are the same, which is why I take the time to truly listen and create a safe, supportive space where you feel heard and understood.
