Katherine Fitzsimmons

About me

I am a qualified and experienced psychodynamic therapist offering one-to-one sessions in both north London and Cambridge. With a BACP-accredited master’s degree and as a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), I provide adults with open-ended, long-term and short-term therapy.

What I Offer

In our weekly sessions, I provide a safe, confidential, and non-judgmental space for you to explore what’s on your mind. Rather than offering direct advice, I take a collaborative approach, working at a pace that feels right for you. Using curiosity and open exploration to foster deeper self-awareness and emotional growth, guiding you toward lasting and meaningful change.

My Approach

I work from a psychodynamic and psychoanalytic perspective, which means I pay close attention to how past experiences might be influencing your current patterns of thinking, feeling, and relating to others. Together, we’ll explore unconscious processes that may be holding you back, helping you better understand yourself and your relationships.

Is This Approach Right for You?

This approach does not offer quick solutions or advice, it will give you a deeper, more meaningful understanding of yourself with often profound and enduring changes. Whether you have had therapy before or this is your first time, please feel free to get in touch.

Professional Standards

I follow the ethical guidelines set out by the BACP and am committed to ongoing professional development, ensuring that I offer the best support possible. You can also find my verified profile on the BACP website.

We meet weekly for 50 minutes at the same time each week.

In Finsbury Park (N4), I offer sessions a 5-minute walk from the station. Parking is available but permits needed.

In Cambridge (CB1), I offer sessions on Mill Road, a 15-minute walk from the station, with free parking available.

Online sessions are also offered for those who prefer remote therapy

I charge £70-90 depending on your financial situation 

Please feel free to contact me for more information and availability
