About Kat, Your Counsellor

Choosing a counsellor is a personal thing. You’re trusting someone with parts of your life that you may not have spoken about before, so I think it’s important that you get a sense of the person you’re choosing to work with.

​

I’m a warm, approachable and down-to-earth counsellor, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know people and understanding what makes them who they are. I’m interested in the whole person, rather than simply the difficulty that has brought you to counselling.

​

Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with people from many different backgrounds and supporting them through a wide range of experiences. My work has included supporting people through trauma, relationships, anxiety, burnout, low self-esteem, life changes and many of the challenges that can come with simply trying to navigate life.

​

I don’t believe you need to arrive at counselling with everything worked out — or even knowing exactly what you need. Sometimes you just know that something doesn’t feel right, that you’re struggling, or that you’d like to understand yourself a little better.

​

I’ll offer you a space where you can be yourself, without judgement or expectation. I’ll listen, be curious with you and help you make sense of what’s going on, while respecting that you are the expert in your own life.

​

Counselling can sometimes involve difficult conversations and uncomfortable feelings, but it can also be a space to pause, reflect and begin to see things differently. My hope is that you leave our work together with a greater understanding of yourself, more compassion for who you are, and a clearer sense of what you want for your life.
