About me

Hi, My name is Kate and I am an Integrative Counsellor based in Market Harborough, Leicestershire. I provide confidential, short and long-term counselling services, both online and outdoors. I offer a safe and non-judgemental space for you to explore your feelings, emotions and experiences and provide support for issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, addiction, and childhood sexual abuse. Due to my integrative training and experience, I am able to tailor my approach to meet each individual client’s needs.

I offer a limited amount of reduced rate sessions for counselling students and veterans and offer a free initial 20 minute consultation.

Member organisations

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

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.
