About me
Hi I am Kate a registered Counsellor with the BACP. I am passionate about helping Individuals and Couples navigate life's challenges and find clarity, connection and self-compassion.
I believe everyone deserves a space where they feel truly heard. Over the years I've learned that understanding your story can be a powerful step towards to self-acceptance, healing and change. I am here to walk alongside you as we untangle those stories and uncover your inner strengths.
My work with Individuals : Do you often put other people first - whether its family, friends or colleagues- at the expense of your own needs? This can leave you feeling resentful, exhausted and unsure how to create space for yourself. Perhaps you've noticed feelings of self-doubt creeping in or your're overwhelmed by thoughts such as 'I should have' or 'Why didnt I?' These patterns can make you feel stuck but they dont have to define your life. Together we can prioritize your self-care, rebuild your confidence and create a life that feels more balanced and fulfilling.
My work with Couples : Are you feeling unheard or dismissed by your partner, stuck in the same unresolved arguments? Perhaps trust has been broken, leaving you uncertain about your relationships future, or your are feeling increasingly distant from each other. In our sessions together I create a safe space where you can slow down, truly listen and start to reconnect. Together we will work on improving communication, rebuilding trust, and rediscovering the connection that brought you together.
Trauma
I am a trauma-informed counsellor. I have 5 years of working in a trauma agency dealing with historical childhood sexual abuse, and sexual assault. I am experienced in supporting people with sexual trauma helping people who are struggling with post traumatic stress symptoms, suicidal thoughts, self-harm and trauma recovery.
Anxiety, depression and low mood
I can support you with anxiety and depression helping you to work through some of the underlying issues behind it. This might be finding practical ways to help you deal with life on a day-to-day basis. I have a special interest in Parts Work which can be helpful in this area
Loss and Grief
I can support you struggling with grief, loss and change that can occur in life. Be it from bereavement, loss of jobs and transitional life changes. Offering a warm, and safe space to explore these issues.
I have a a rich and varied experience of working in healthcare, complementary therapies and mental health support. For the past 5 years I have worked in a third sector charity for people who have experience sexual assault, rape and childhood sexual abuse. I bring a trauma informed holistic approach to my work as a therapist.
If you're ready to take the first step toward a more connected and fulfilling life, I'd love to hear from you. Book a free introductory call today to see how we can work together to support your journey.

Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
