I would highly recommend Kathryn as a therapist. She listened without judgement. I found her easy to talk to. I felt she was someone I could trust at a time when I felt I couldn’t discuss my issues with family or close friends. I had some one who was there for me when I needed support. I feel more able as a result of my therapy to manage problems that I might come across in the future. I can look at things in different ways and have more confidence in myself.

Kathy is amazing- I’ve never felt as comfortable, understood or supported by anyone in my life.

I am a qualified Integrative Counsellor & Psychotherapist with a person- centred approach. I have over 5 years of experience working as a paid counsellor/psychotherapist in a paid and volunteer capacity working with women (and partners) that have had one or more children permanently removed from their care, suicide prevention/those bereaved by suicide, and grief & loss.

I have a calm, non-judgemental manner, with the ability to attune to the needs (spoken and unspoken) of my client. In a safe and comfortable space, we will build a therapeutic relationship to achieve your aim. I have an integrative approach and use the therapeutic practice of most benefit to the individual’s needs. I have worked with a variety of clients with a range of concerns; grief & loss, stress & anxiety, depression, those bereaved by suicide, those bereaved by dementia and trauma.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
