Rochester ME1
Hi, I am Catherine. I am a friendly and approachable counsellor offering face to face counselling in Rochester in Kent (ME1) and online counselling for adults 18+. Including: anxiety, depression, bereavement and loss, low self esteem, panic attacks, PTSD, trauma, relationship and family issues, and also the life challenges of neurodivergence such ADHD. I offer a calm, supportive space where you can talk openly and feel truly listened to. My approach is compassionate and down-to-earth, and I place great importance on building a genuine, trusting relationship where you feel safe to explore whatever is on your mind.
Much of my work has been with clients experiencing anxiety, low self-esteem and bereavement, and I’ve seen how deeply these challenges can affect every aspect of life. I hold specialist training in bereavement through my work with Cruse Bereavement Care, and in neurodiversity, supporting adults with ADHD and related challenges at home, work and in education.
I appreciate that reaching out for support—especially for the first time—may feel a little daunting, so I offer a free 15-minute phone consultation. This conversation gives you a chance to get a sense of how I work, ask any questions, and explore what you’re hoping for from counselling. I look forward to hearing from you!
