About me
HI, I am Kate, a qualified Pluralistic Counsellor and a qualified Couples Counsellor. I am a registered member of the BACP, offering face-to-face and online counselling in a warm, safe, non-judgemental space. I work with each client with compassion, to tailor the therapy to their unique and individual needs. I have experience of working with trauma, relationship issues, such as poor communication and affairs. I also work with anxiety and depression and a wide range of issues and concerns.
Trauma
I am a trauma-informed counsellor and have completed training on how trauma impacts the body and mind. I work in a trauma agency dealing with historical childhood sexual abuse, and sexual assault. I support people who are dealing with the effects of trauma, such as post traumatic stress symptoms, suicidal thoughts and self-harm.
Anxiety, depression and low mood
I support clients with anxiety and depression helping them to work through some of the underlying issues that may have caused them to feel like this. This can involve finding practical ways to deal with their anxiety on a day-to-day basis and how it is manifesting for them. I have a special interest in Parts Work which can be helpful in this area.
Relationship issues
I have worked with people struggling to make sense of their relationship with their partners, with members of their family and within their friendship groups. Helping them to identify what their needs and wants are within relationships and looking at ways of improving their communication patterns.
Loss and Grief
I have supported people who have struggled with grief, loss and change that can occur through life. Be it from bereavement, loss of jobs and transitional life changes. Offering a warm, empathic and safe space to explore these issues.
I have a background of working in mental health, within the NHS and Third sector supporting individuals with depression, anxiety and long term mental health problems. I have also worked as a complimentary therapist and a horticultural therapist. I offer warmth and authenticity, please do take a look at my website and get in touch if you would like to find out more information,

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.
