I support people experiencing grief and loss, particularly traumatic grief, sudden loss, suicide loss, overdose loss, or unexpected bereavement. Many clients come to counselling after the death of a child, sibling, partner, loved one, or the loss of something deeply meaningful in their world such as employment or identity. The shock and pain of these experiences can leave people feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or alone. I work with adults and young people to help them process grief, understand complex emotions, and find ways to move forward while continuing to honour what they have lost. You do not have to face this alone.

My commitment is to work alongside you to create a safe, non-judgmental space to help faciliate, unfold and navigate our conscious and unconscious behavious and patterns. I am here to be present with you, and to recognise that healing and transformation is not measured by external ideas of 'fixing'. Therapy is a progressive process. It's individual and meaningful. Your outcomes are supported by your willingness to stay with what your experiencing, to deepen with compassion and to integrate your mind, emotions and body into a sense of being whole so that you can have a deeper relationship with yourself.

Are you looking for support to reduce your drinking or stop drinking? Are you interested in recovery medication (e.g. The Sinclair Method)? Starting your recovery or recently relapsed? Do you drink to enhance positive mood, to feel more comfortable fitting in, for social bonding or to avoid negative feelings? Is your drinking motivated by current or past unresolved stressors/trauma? Or has drinking just simply become a habit? Overdrinking for whatever reason can affect your psychological and physical health, your relationships with friends/family and work. I understand that the initial step in asking for help is very challenging.

Hi, I'm Katie. I work with individuals who feel weighed down by the roles they play—the 'strong one', the selfless Carer, or the tireless professional.
Those who visit me often feel a quiet, heavy resentment they’re afraid to admit aloud, maybe through a caring role changing their relationship, or when the mask of keeping it all together starts to crack, leading to burnout, anxiety, or a loss of self.
Together, we move forward by exploring the parts of you that have been sidelined. We look at both symptoms and the roots of your exhaustion to help you reclaim a life that feels honest, sustainable & without societal expectations.
