Catherine Hagan

I provide face-to-face, online/video or telephone sessions to suit; this can be flexible on a session-by-session basis if needed.

I work weekdays and weekends; my first session is at 08:00 and my last is 18:40.

I have availability for new clients.

My name is Catherine and I am a qualified Counsellor, having gained my Diploma in Humanistic Integrative Counselling from Wealden Institute of Counselling and Psychotherapy in October 2018.

I have been in private practice since March 2022 when I created Insight Counselling; I specialise in supporting women with their emotional health and am currently training as a Menopause Wellness Practitioner.

I am also working towards obtaining my Certificate in Trauma and Recovery, and am looking to train as a Personal Development Coach and Emotional Freedom Technique Practitioner. I hope to later qualify as a Hypnotherapist. 

I offer a thirty-minute consultation which is free of charge; this is an opportunity to discuss what's brought you to Counselling, what you would like to gain from sessions and for you to ask any questions.

If we feel we can work together, sessions are £45.00 for 50 minutes; payment is required two days prior to session to secure your booking, and your session will not go ahead if payment is not received beforehand.

Cancellations by yourself within 24 hours or any non-attendance will require a discretionary £20.00 cancellation fee. Cash is not accepted.

Sessions can be face-to-face, online/video or telephone to suit you, and this can be flexible on a session-by-session basis if required. I work weekdays and weekends from 08:00 until my last session at 18:40.

Sessions are confidential; however, I am required to 'present' clients monthly to a Supervisor to enable best practise and receive guidance. Further, if you disclose a risk of harm to yourself or another, I may be required to breach our confidentiality for safeguarding purposes; if this is the case, I will endeavour to discuss this with you in the first instance where possible. 

I am a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy; I am insured with Holistic Insurance and registered with the Information Commissioner's Office.

I am a Humanistic Counsellor so work with you as a whole person, taking into account your beliefs, history and life experiences, rather than solely the 'issue' you may present with; this could include exploring your values and where they came from, your childhood, family structures, personal relationships, attachment styles, working situations, etc., whilst drawing on theory where relevant. 

However, it is important you only 'bring' matters you are comfortable discussing; there is no pressure to talk about anything you don't want to.

I am also integrative-based so utilise the approaches and teachings of person-centred counselling, Gestalt and Transactional Analysis.

I specialise in supporting women with their emotional health; due to the demand for this, there is no space for working with anyone outside this capacity.

Please note, I only work with adults 18 and over.

I offer a thirty-minute consultation which is free of charge; this is an opportunity to discuss what's brought you to Counselling, to explore what you'd like to gain from sessions, to enable us to get a sense of one another and for you to ask any questions.

This can be conducted face-to-face, online/video or telephone to suit you.

Please note, if face-to-face is preferable, I work from home in Storrington, West Sussex; my therapy room is up one flight of stairs with no disability access.

Parking is easy and available with no charge.
