About me and my therapy practice

I'm Katie and my practice is Heartsease Counselling, and I am a trained counsellor with a BSc (hons) degree in integrative counselling.

I believe that counselling can help you with so many issues, as it has helped me in the past, and can help you to move forwards from whatever is holding you back, whether that is mental health issues such as anxiety and depression, a lack of self confidence or a general feeling of being lost or unfulfilled in life.

Counselling can be useful after a major loss in life such as a bereavement, relationship break up or redundancy, to help you to come to terms with a new reality and to rebuild your future. Sometimes we can lose sight of our true selves and counselling can provide the conditions we need to rediscover who we are and get back to being our authentic selves.

Practice description

My practice is based on Person-Centred principles, which means that I believe you are the expert on yourself and that the pace and direction of sessions will be led by you, but I also use techniques and interventions from other counselling modes such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), psychodynamic therapy and Solution Focused Brief Therapy amongst others. This combination of modalities means that I can provide you with a safe, non-judgemental space to explore what you need to, then to help you tackle whatever comes up for you in sessions and give you the tools you need to make any changes needed to make your future less stressful and more fulfilling.
