Pregnancy, Prenatal, Postpartum Counselling in Penrith

During our lives we can all encounter times of difficulties and challenges, sometimes these experiences can take us by surprise and be unsettling. Counselling can give you the place to explore this, see patterns emerging and find within yourself ways of understanding the impact your past experience can have on life now. Then after developing your own ways of understanding, exploring how to move forward with renewed self-awareness and confidence.

Sometimes we experience things in our lives that we were not expecting and you may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, and anxious or be looking for support so you can process difficult feelings. I can offer you a safe and supportive space where you can talk freely and feel heard without judgment so that you can begin to find ways to positively move forward. I provide Psychotherapy and Counselling for adults dealing with difficult thoughts and feelings because of current life challenges, past experiences, and bereavement. I work in Newcastle upon Tyne and North Tyneside.

Working as a midwife over the last decade and specifically as a birth trauma therapist over the last two years, I have realised a very sad truth. Most women who experience trauma, whether through a pregnancy loss, birth or the postnatal period, aren’t getting the help they need. This trauma creates an emotional wound that permeates through their lives like ripples in a pond. What would it feel like to truly let go of negative thoughts and emotions from your previous experience and consider a possible pregnancy or upcoming birth with excitement?

I offer a psychological therapy service for parents and parents-to-be who are looking for support along their journey into parenthood. Collaboration and compassion is at the heart of all I do and I can work with issues including depression and anxiety through the perinatal period, transitioning to parenthood, support for partners, bonding difficulties, and birth trauma among others using evidence-based psychological treatments.

Hi, I'm Katrin and I'm an integrative counsellor practising in Newcastle. I work online, on the phone or in person with individuals and couples. If you’re thinking about starting therapy at the moment, welcome. Sometimes we know what’s wrong and other times we have a sense that something feels off. Finding a supportive space in which to work through these feelings can be immensely healing. I work with people on an array of issues, including depression, anxiety, abuse and trauma, grief & loss, postpartum anxiety, parenting, family building, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, stress, life transitions and personal development.

It isn't often, in our everyday lives, that we feel truly heard, understood and accepted without sensing judgement or criticism from others. I deeply acknowledge and understand the loneliness that comes from struggling in silence with life's difficulties. Therapy offers you a calm space to begin to tell your story; permission to pause and reflect on what you have been through, validate your response to trauma and loss and gently navigate the path forward. I will support you on your therapeutic journey, gently empowering you to realise your inner resources and ways of coping and navigating your world so that you feel more in control.
