I offer face-to-face person-centred counselling from my private practice in Cronton, Cheshire, with online counselling available across Liverpool and throughout the UK.

Starting therapy can feel like a big step. You may already know that you’d like some support, or you may be unsure whether therapy is right for you at all. You might be wondering where to start, or whether now is the right time.You don’t need to have everything figured out before you get in touch. We can start where you are and take things at your pace.Perhaps you’re…- Finding less meaning in life.
- Feeling anxious or overwhelmed.
- Finding relationships difficult.
- Trying to make sense of your thoughts or emotions.
- Navigating neurodiversity – your own or someone close to you.
- Carrying experiences from the past that still affect you today.
- Feeling disconnected from yourself.
- Supporting a child or young person and feeling unsure where to turn.
- Simply wanting a space that is yours.

I work with adults and young people aged 16 and over. Together, we gently explore what's going on, making space for thoughts, feelings and experiences that can be difficult to put into words. Sessions are collaborative and shaped by what feels important to you, with room to pause, reflect and make sense of things in your own way.Choosing a counsellor is a personal decision, and feeling comfortable with the person you work with really matters. If you're wondering whether counselling could help, or whether I might be the right fit, I offer a free, informal conversation before you decide whether to begin. There's no pressure and no commitment, so please get in touch whenever you feel ready.

I believe change can happen when we feel genuinely heard, understood and accepted.As a Person-Centred and Experiential psychotherapist, I won't tell you what to do or offer quick answers. Instead, I'll work alongside you, offering a calm, accepting space where you can explore what you're going through at your own pace.Person-Centred therapy is based on the idea that, given the right conditions, people have a natural capacity to grow. When we feel accepted rather than judged, we can listen to ourselves more honestly. Over time, many people find this helps them develop greater self-acceptance, trust their own feelings, and feel clearer about what they need. The Experiential side of my work means we also notice what you feel in the moment, including in your body, which can help put words to things that are hard to express.Everyone's experience is different. Who we are, our relationships and the world around us all shape how we feel and make sense of our lives. I work in a way that respects your individuality, your identity and what matters to you. Most of all, I want you to feel comfortable enough to be yourself.

I’m Kate, a Person-Centred and Experiential psychotherapist, currently completing my MA in Counselling and Psychotherapy at Liverpool John Moores University.I’ve worked with people experiencing anxiety, trauma, addiction, neurodiversity and a range of other life experiences across university, community and educational settings.Before becoming a psychotherapist, I spent over 17 years working in education as an Art and Photography teacher. This experience has given me a strong understanding of child development, SEND and safeguarding, as well as many years of working alongside children, young people and families. It has also shaped the way I understand people, relationships and the different experiences that can influence how we see ourselves and the world around us.I’m naturally curious about people and the stories that have shaped them. I appreciate that not everything we experience is easy to put into words, and where it feels helpful, I can incorporate gentle creative approaches into our work, always led by you and what feels comfortable.

My work is rooted in:• Genuine and authentic relationships• Compassion• Empowerment• Equality and inclusion• Neuro-affirming care• Creativity• Respect for each person’s unique experiences and strengths
