Hello, I'm Cat. I offer person-centred counselling services online or over the phone. The work we do will vary according to your needs.
About me and my practice
As a qualified counsellor I feel confident in my ability to work effectively with a wide range of situations, problems or experiences.
I offer a warm, affirming, and exploratory approach that welcomes individuals of all ages, genders, sexualities, races, and backgrounds. I aim to provide compassionate, trauma informed care. Therapy is about the client. We all get stuck sometimes. We will collaborate to explore your issues from multiple dimensions and work through them with a pathway of stabilization, processing and the integration of new tools and concepts.
My journey into counselling was inspired by my own experience as a client, so I understand the apprehension that can come with seeking support. Central to my approach is the cultivation of a meaningful relationship between us. I believe as human beings we thrive when we feel understood and connected to. Through this relationship we can unfold and explore our full potential.
If you're thinking about whether I am the right counsellor for you and would like to talk please contact me in whichever way you prefer. I aim to respond promptly to enquiries. We can then explore your needs and perhaps embark on this journey together.
All communication is treated confidentially.
Thank you :)
