Kat is a clinically registered psychotherapist specialising in trauma-informed individual therapy for adults. Approaching her clients with a focus on understanding rather than labelling or diagnosing, Kat believes in delving into each individual's unique story with a nonjudgmental curiosity. With a distinctive mix of humour and warmth, she establishes a secure environment for clients to explore their inner and outer worlds with vulnerability.
Influenced by Psychodynamic, IFS, Narrative, Depth Enquiry (EMDR), Gestalt, and EFT, Kat tailors her methods to each client's unique needs. By incorporating attachment and polyvagal theories into her practice, she enriches the therapeutic process, helping clients explore the impact of relational experiences on both their emotional and physiological states.
Kat assists clients in gaining a comprehensive understanding of themselves while fostering self-compassion and acceptance. Utilising a blend of talk therapy & somatic processing she facilitates self-exploration, expression, and release, promoting a profound awareness of the mind-body connection. Kat is LGBTQIA+ friendly, sex+, sex worker+ & neuro-affirming.
