The reasons for seeking therapy are many. I am a strong believer in our ability as individuals to change how we feel, think and react to the situations we find ourselves in and which may be causing us difficulty. I see my role as a therapist as a facilitator, allowing a client to learn about themselves, their relationships and their behaviours.

You who may be experiencing a mental health difficulty, want to work on understanding and resolving Trauma, relationship difficulties or wanting to explore your own process in a safe way.

Do you have that feeling that life is becoming too much? Or maybe you feel your mood is low and you dont know why. Do you feel anxious but dont know how to control the symptoms? or maybe you know exactly how you feel and are suffering in silence because you dont know where to turn or who to talk to about it.

Do you feel like a misfit? Are you constantly overwhelmed, experiencing low self-esteem, and struggling to find your path in your everyday life, at work or school? Perhaps anxiety or depression weighs heavily on you, and you may even feel like a failure. You desire a change in some aspect of your life, but the feeling of being stuck holds you back. Following a routine feels impossible, and you find yourself searching for meaning or seeking support to achieve your goals. Deep down, you recognise the need for assistance.

Counselling can be the first step toward better self care and prioritising your own needs. It can help with understanding the choices you have in life. It can be used to work on issues such as anxiety, depression or anger. It can be helpful to look at the past and understand how it impacts the present. Re-framing this can lead to a better understanding and maybe less self blame or shame. We can carry burdens which aren't ours to carry and counselling can be a safe place to explore this. It can help for the management of difficult relationships in our lives.

Hello, I am Dr. Kate Rhodes, a Clinical Psychologist offering online video therapy to adults & young people across the UK. I have over 15 years’ experience working in the NHS with people from a broad range of backgrounds & complexity levels. I have a particular interest in trauma and difficult life events and enjoy working with clients using EMDR to make huge changes to their lives. I have vast experience in health psychology including chronic illness, sexual health, weight management & disordered eating, pain management, obstetrics & gynaecology, palliative & bereavement, healthy living & behaviour change.

Are you constantly experiencing relationship challenges, leaving you feeling distressed, bewildered, let down and perhaps angry and self blaming for repeating these patterns? It can be utterly devastating to keep finding ourselves stuck in this way. Whether in intimate relationships, family dynamics, friendships or work situations, I can support you to explore and develop a deep understanding of the origins of these issues, and develop the practice of self compassion. This leads to healthier relationships with others. Maybe you have experienced some of the above and are also in the Creative/Performing Arts Community or Film/ Media.

I have always desired to understand feelings, behaviour and the human mind; always been driven toward solving the questions that start with why. However, after leading many spontaneous counselling sessions with friends, witnessing the empowering feeling it brings to simply aid someone find a way forward, instead, I also became driven toward solving the questions that start with how. I would deem it a privilege to take the time with someone to answer how they can move forward from their situation and how they can deal with whatever hand life has dealt them, all the while offering empathy and honesty in a safe non judgmental space.
