I'm Katie, a dual accredited CBT therapist and counsellor in King's Heath, Birmingham — specialising in anxiety, life transitions, and psychological support for people using GLP-1 weight loss medications (Mounjaro, Wegovy, Ozempic). Has your body or your life recently changed in ways your mind hasn't caught up with yet? Whether you're navigating the psychological shifts of weight loss medication, recovering from burnout, managing anxiety, or rebuilding after a major life change — I can help you find your feet again.
I offer a flexible, hybrid approach to therapy that meets you where you are—literally. We can talk online, in-person, or take our sessions outdoors into the fresh air of Birmingham’s parks for walk-and-talk therapy, to help you bridge the gap between where you are and where you want to be. I can get out of the office with you to help confront anxiety.
If you're ready to feel a bit more settled, I'd love to help. You're welcome to book a free initial call or a one-off session to see if we're a good fit. You can schedule appointments through my website.

Therapy with me is practical, proactive, empowering and flexible. We'll come up with a personalised treatment plan together, based on your goals. If you're anxious, we may leave the therapy room together to face your fears and learn new things. I'll encourage you to make real changes in your day to day life. If you have trauma to process, I'll stay with you whilst you come to terms with it.

I'm a really flexible therapist skilled in a wide range of interventions. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide on a personalised treatment plan together. I'll encourage you to make practical and behavioural changes in your day to day life, I won't smile and nod and agree with you. Therapy can be challenging, I want to be as useful to you as possible.
