More about Katherine

  • 7 years' experience
  • Female
  • BACP

I am credentialed in the UK with 7 years of professional work experience as a therapist. Alongside therapy I have been working in the substance use field for 20 years. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, relationship issues, neurodivergence, mental health issues, domestic abuse, trauma and lgbtq+ related issues. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I am adaptable in my approach and will be guided by you with regards to how best I can meet your needs. There is no right way or wrong way to do therapy and the healing is in the relationship between therapist and client as opposed to a specific method. Empathy is the core principle at the root of everything I do and it is in the acceptance from one person to another where change can take place. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

The session with Katherine was very helpful, she was compassionate, had insightful questions and listened to my story with curiosity making me feel heard and understood.

Reviewed November 2025

Katherine is absolutely remarkable. She gives me space to accept my emotions, process, and work through them, allowing me to get back to living a life unrestricted by feelings of anxiety. She is extremely knowledgable - I feel in such safe hands opening up to her.

Katherine is very supportive.

Katherine is an extremely kind, insightful, and intelligent person. She’s the only person I have met, not limited to therapists, who has been able to help me start to accept, deal, and begin to resolve my problems. I would recommend her to anyone struggling with addiction, anxiety, depression, and trauma.

Katherine was understanding, replied in a timely manner, gave good insight into topics discussed in a professional way.

Katherine has been very professional and responsive. I felt from the beginning that she listened to me attentively and asked the right questions. I feel she’s supporting me tremendously in reflecting and working on myself.
