When you tell me about you, it helps me understand what it is like being you

I am here to listen to you as it comes; unfiltered and without judgement. Part of my role as a counsellor is to reflect back what I see and hear and to offer a different perspective - so you can see with fresh eyes. This insight can help you see patterns or coping mechanisms that may not be helpful to you now. The development of this self awareness can be the catalyst to change. You can move from a place of feeling anxious, sad, confused or stuck, to finding some clarity on why you got here and together we can explore how you would like that to be different.

“Counselling has undoubtedly had a massive impact on my life, the benefits of which my family and I are now getting to experience every single day. I cannot thank Katy enough... my only regret is that I did not start sooner."

— S.S

Why counselling?

As a counsellor, I was drawn into psychotherapy having supported neurodivergent young people for over 10 years, including ADHD, autism and Asperger’s. I wanted to nurture the unique and special nature of that one to one relationship. I have a special interest in neurodivergence.

I am passionate about the benefits of talking therapy. In my mind, there is nothing more powerful than two people sitting opposite each other in a room; one person being truly listened to, without judgement or criticism.

"I have seen a lot of therapists in my time, and I have never felt as comfortable with one as I did with Katy. I felt she truly understood me and was on 'my side' which was enormously reassuring. She has an ability to empathise deeply with you, noticing the details and exploring you holistically, yet respectfully" — T.H

Who I See

I offer counselling to individuals and couples online and face to face. I work with adults and young people over 16 for both long and short term work.


If you are looking for a warm and professional counsellor; we can begin this journey together. I am available for face to face and online appointments; daytime and limited evenings. It is really important that you feel comfortable with me, so email, text or call for a free 15 minute telephone consultation to help you reach that decision. I look forward to hearing from you.

"From the first moment I met Katy, I felt very comfortable and at ease with her. She is very understanding, warm and compassionate. I could open up about all the things that seemed to be a problem for me."

-R.M


“I started the counselling process thinking that I needed to change who I am. My time with Katy made me realise that I actually just need to change the way I see myself."

— K.D

“Katy had a very calming and soothing effect on me, also the peaceful atmosphere was great. I came away each time feeling relaxed and if necessary would not hesitate to contact her again.”

— Anonymous

“The analogy that I came up with to describe my time with Katy, was that we went on a gentle walk together, through 'The Valley of Me', and rather than facing me, questioning and forcing responses, Katy walked alongside me, holding my hand, and shining a torch into the dark places.”

— A.G

“I found my counselling relationship to be unique to any other relationship. I was able to feel safe and welcomed whilst having successful and useful conversations. I believe counselling gave me the time necessary to work on my personal well-being and to become more mindful of my own emotions. In my experience, I found counselling an incredibly therapeutic way to get things off my chest and evidently feel happier and more self aware.”

— H.S.

“Within a very short amount of time, one session, I already felt very comfortable with Katy. I felt I was able to discuss whatever I wanted and that it was a judgement free zone which I liked very much. I was reluctant to begin with, as I was new to counselling, but it quickly became a normal part of my life and the more I did it, the more easy I found it to express myself freely.”

— N.R.

“Yes, counselling has definitely helped me. I have become a lot more decisive and open to expressing what I want to do that I feel is best for me, as opposed to worrying how it will make others feel. I have also cut out unnecessary thoughts that were intruding on my daily life and sending me into a downwards spiral by putting things into perspective. I have become a lot more open and less embarrassed with talking about how I feel to my parents and close friends which in turn has made those relationships stronger.”

— N.R.

“Katy's caring human approach to everything we discussed, and the level of emotional intelligence she brought to all our conversations are just two of the many reasons I would recommend her to anyone looking to start therapy.”

— M.D.

“My experience of my counselling relationship with Katy was an extremely positive one. Katy made me feel at ease at all times and created a safe and supportive space where I felt I could share anything on my mind. I looked forward to each session as I knew I would come away with a fresh perspective on any challenges or issues I was facing.”

— L.H.

“All sessions felt comfortable and I found it easier to discuss topics that I hadn't really discussed with others before. I didn't really go into sessions with a clear idea of what I would talk about, but with help, in each session I realised quickly what I wanted to cover and how easy it felt to do that. I also found that it gave me things to think on and process after, so I was still getting more out of the sessions.”

— E.B.
