About me
My name is Kitty,
I am a Humanistic Counselling Psychotherapist. I work with all ages 18+.
I welcome all faiths, races, genders & sexualities. I will provide a safe, supporting, therapeutic space, where you can be assured you will be received without judgment. Sometimes we feel stuck, lost, struggle to express our emotions or are trying to figure out who we are. Sometimes we are seeking a way to explore past traumas, or explore our future goals. The therapeutic aim is to help you move toward achieving meaning and fulfillment in your life.
I offer online and in-person sessions, including "walk and talk" therapy in various parks and along the seafront in Brighton. This is available for individuals who prefer being outside as opposed to seated in a clinic. This is weather dependent and can be hybrid with online sessions.
Reaching out is a big step, and there is no expectation or obligation for us to work together after our first free 30 minute session. We can discuss your needs and see if I can provide what you are looking for, and ultimately, whether or not it feels like the right fit to work together. I look forward to hearing from you.
Training, qualifications & experience
I trained at Metanoia Institute in London which focuses on the Humanistic schools of psychotherapy. I am a qualified Humanistic Counselling Psychotherapist MBACP. I have passed my proficiency exam with the BACP.
I am part of a company as a coach, called Conversational Partners which provides help regarding psychological safety in workplaces for businesses.
I have moderated panel lectures in the Psychotherapy field.
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.
