Working as a Humanistic Integrative Psychotherapeutic Counsellor and your guide; I am experienced in approaching each client individually, this includes drawing on CBT, Gestalt, Solution Focused, Creativity and Imagery techniques with which I am able to create a flexible and individually blended therapy plan. Struggling with unhelpful behaviours or thinking patterns that are holding you back? Anxious, depressed, missing a loved one, feeling low or like you just can't think straight? I can help. I appreciate that we can all experience difficulties in our lives, and I believe that we can all benefit from counselling and therapy.

Thank you for looking at my profile. I’m glad that you are seeking help to resolve the issues that you are currently facing. I support young people and adults with a wide range of issues including anxiety, depression, self- harm, confidence issues, bereavement, and baby loss. I am also a qualified relationship counsellor and support couples who are experiencing difficulties in their relationship. This includes issues with communication, trust, intimacy, conflict and adultery. I provide both long and short term work, depending on your needs and your financial situation.

When relationships (business, family or personal) are troubled, we can feel anxious or depressed. Whether its lack of, ending of, difficulties with or changes in relationships, at work or home, our need for human closeness both brings pleasure and causes problems. Maybe change is driven by others, maybe you need something to change but don't know the best way to go about it. Perhaps you’re finding that you’re stuck in a destructive communication pattern and feel like you’re going round in circles. Maybe you don’t really know what you want, but would like to find out. I can help.

I’m a highly qualified counsellor and psychotherapist who has a wealth of experience working with a diverse range of people. I understand that everyone can go through difficult times and we all can benefit from support in handling these challenges. I can help by offering you a relaxed, safe and confidential therapeutic space to explore issues troubling you in a caring, accepting and non-judgemental way. People I have worked with tell me their therapeutic experience with me has increased their confidence, self-awareness, personal growth and they have gained a deeper sense of meaning, purpose and contentment.

Many people who seek counselling and psychotherapy are uncertain about how these services may be able to help them. I offer an initial free telephone consultation to find out more about you and the difficulties you are experiencing to help you decide whether I am the right person to help you. My therapeutic approach is to work collaboratively with you to help you reach a better understanding of the problems you are experiencing and to identify possible ways forward. I have a professional background in mental health nursing and social work with children and families. I currently work as a psychotherapist with adult clients only.

My name is Kat and I know from both personal and professional experience that sometimes things may just get too much and life may seem to be complicated and talking to a friend or a family member may not feel like a solution.

By providing you with a safe and confidential space I can assist you on a journey of self exploration and change.

Since qualifying as a Psychologist, I have worked mainly with individuals who have suffered some kind of childhood trauma. As a result I have found that individuals with personality issues, CPTSD, mood disorders and neurodiversity feel that I am the best fit for them. The types of clients who are drawn to me tend to have difficulties with rejection, abandonment, being judged and not accepted. I provide the space to counter act that, to develop self-empathy and self-compassion and to simply accept and learn to love who we truly are.

Regardless of your reason for dropping by. Thank you for visiting my information page, it's really appreciated. If this is your first time visiting counselling directories.

"Maybe I don't fit at all?"

Hello, I’m Bev. Life can be overwhelming at times and when our thoughts are disorganised it can be challenging to see a clear way forward and to make positive and healthy choices. Although it is helpful talking to others, many people feel more comfortable and more able to be fully open, talking to a trained professional.

I'm passionate about improving well-being in trauma, hopefulness in recovery, and overcoming adversity.

I am a fully qualified and experienced Counsellor, Psychological Therapist and High Intensity Cognitive Behavioural Therapist (CBT) and Supervisor. Often individuals will seek therapy because they feel unable to cope with the stresses of life or adjusting to a big change, not like 'their old self', isolated from others, worried or lost or just needing someone to listen. My role is to work together with individuals to make sense of what is happening for them and provide opportunities for change in away that they feel is appropriate and achievable at their own pace, within a private and confidential setting.
