Welcome to my profile - My name is Cat and I'm an expert in developmental trauma and personality difficulties. These can lead to a range of mental health needs that I can support you with (like anxiety, anger, risky behaviours, psychosis...) and also unhelpful coping behaviours, such as self-harm and suicidal thoughts, substance use, relationship struggles, and on. My approach is to understand the 'why', to get the root cause of difficult experiences so that we know how to improve it. We will work on identifying unhelpful coping strategies and replace these with healthy ones so we can work on developing the life that you want.

We often spend so much of our lives in a place of reactivity - simply surviving and at the mercy of life's ups and downs. I help clients move to a place of reflection and heightened self-awareness, so they can choose to get off the rollercoaster and quiet the noise around them. This allows freedom to choose next steps with clarity instead of simply reacting. If this resonates with you, then I'd be privileged to help you too. One thing you probably need to hear right now is that you are far from alone, and support is always available if you are willing to reach out for it.

Hi, I'm Chloe. I have a small practice in Belper (Derbyshire) as well as online, seeing clients across the country. As the client, I believe you are the expert on yourself, no-one else knows exactly what it’s like to be you. Some of my clients I am currently working with, are exploring topics such as: neurodiversity (self or professionally diagnosed) work-related stress, sexuality, bereavement and relationships. I love working with clients to explore power and have noticed lots of clients exploring themes of finding their voice establishing boundaries, particularly with parents as they enter adulthood.
