About me

I’m Katie, a person-centred counsellor offering in-person, online, and telephone sessions.

If you're feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or struggling to cope with life's challenges, you don't have to face these difficulties alone. Counselling can give you a supportive space to explore what's happening, gain a better understanding of yourself, and find a way forward.

I can support you with a range of difficulties. The areas I work with include:

  • anxiety
  • panic attacks 
  • low mood
  • depression
  • low self-esteem
  • low self-confidence 
  • stress
  • overwhelm
  • bereavement and loss
  • relationship issues
  • life transitions

Whether you are dealing with something specific or unsure where to begin, I aim to provide a supportive environment where you feel seen, heard, and understood.

I’m passionate about supporting people. I believe in the positive impact that therapy can have because it changed my life for the better. I was inspired by the therapist who supported me many years ago.

I offer a free initial 15-minute consultation. After that sessions are 50-minutes long.

Training, qualifications & experience

I graduated from the University of Salford in 2025, with first-class honours in Counselling and Psychotherapy. I have experience of supporting clients with a variety of challenges.

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.

Accredited register membership

British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy
Accredited Register Scheme

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.

Additional information

New clients: your first counselling session with me is £25.

Starting counselling can feel like a big step. To make that first step a little easier, I offer your first session at half price (£25), with subsequent sessions at £50 each.

I understand that £50 a session may be out of reach for some people, so I provide a discounted rate for students and those on low incomes.

I offer a free 15-minute consultation call to see if we are a good fit. Please feel free to contact me to ask any questions you may have. If talking on the phone doesn’t feel right for you, you are welcome to text or email me instead.
