About me
Hello, I’m Katie, thank you for taking a moment to visit my page. Reaching out for support can feel daunting, particularly when you’re carrying a lot or feeling unsure where to start. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or wanting some space to make sense of things, I’m here to listen without judgement.
I’m a fully qualified and insured counsellor, and I work holistically, paying attention to your emotional and physical experience, including the parts that can feel hard to put into words. My integrative training means I draw from different therapeutic approaches, but what matters most is finding what genuinely supports you.
Some people come wanting to explore past experiences; others want help making sense of what’s happening right now. Many want both. We can move gently between the two, at your pace, and in a way that feels manageable. If you’d find it helpful, I can also offer practical tools to support you day to day.
I understand that opening up can feel vulnerable. My aim is to offer a calm, steady space where you can take your time, speak freely, and bring whatever feels important.
If you’re wondering whether counselling might help, or simply feel drawn to reach out, you’re very welcome to contact me.
