About me and my therapy practice

Hi there, I’m Kathryn, an Accredited Psychotherapeutic Counsellor, Accredited CBT Therapist and EMDR Therapist. I am happy to arrange a free telephone consultation discuss how I can help.

I specialise in helping adults with trauma or PTSD / c-PTSD, attachment or relationship issues, OCD, anxiety, low self-esteem social anxiety, and depression. As well as other difficulties people may be facing. I aim to help people who are feeling 'stuck' and want to make changes to improve the way they feel about themselves. This may involve working on your history or staying in the present, learning new ways to manage and recover from emotional difficulties.

I have 15 years experience delivering therapy and building relaxed supportive therapeutic relationships with short and long term clients. My goal is to help you gain an awareness of yourself and your difficulties, to help you reach your goals. I am focused on your needs and will tailor your therapy to meet these.

I am based in the Gosforth / Kenton area of Newcastle upon Tyne and I use an integrated therapy approach in order to meet your needs most appropriately. I work with people aged 18+.

My qualifications:

• BACP Accredited Psychotherapeutic Counsellor (2009)

• BABCP Accredited Cognitive Behavioural Therapist (CBT) (2011)

• Eye Movement Densensitisation & Reprocessing (EMDR) (2017)

• Certificate in Couples Counselling (2019)

I also offer Couples Counselling. It is through the safe space that counselling provides, that you will decide what the future holds for you both.

Practice description

I like to create a relaxed therapy environment to help you feel as comfortable as possible, as I am aware how daunting therapy can be. It is important that we work as a team in order to meet your goals. The therapeutic relationship is vital for this, so I am always open to any feedback which will make treatment as effective as possible for you.

I work both long- and short-term with clients depending on your needs and goals.

My first session

In our first session, we will discuss what brought you to therapy and how I can help. I believe it is important for us to think about what you're not happy about right now, and how you want that to change, so we can start to plan how to meet your therapy needs. You'll be able to ask me anything you might want to find out about too. Everyone's pace and experiences in therapy are different, so we'll chat at your pace! At the end of the session, you can decide if you want any further appointments and what's right for you.
