More about Kathryn
- 10 years' experience
- Female
- BACP
I had an award winning career spanning over twenty years working in the logistics industry being recognised by the industry in the top 100 list several times and having the honour of winning leader of the year award in recognition of the work I did supporting, mentoring, coaching and developing individuals within the organisations I worked for.
I help all my clients achieve sustainable and lasting results and my background as a senior executive at director level enables me to understand the motivations and challenges of working in large organisations, leading teams of people and delivering targets, dealing with conflicts and achieving work life balance.
I have been qualified as a coach since 2011 and a behavioural analyst in 2013 due to more and more employees presenting with personal/mental health issues I decided to learn more and became a qualified counsellor in 2013.
In 2017 I decided I wanted to focus more on the areas of my career I found most fulfilling so set up my own business as a Counsellor and Coach supporting individuals and businesses.
Practice description
On the counselling side I work as an integrative counsellor, which means I flex my style to suit different individuals. I work with many individuals and businesses dealing with issues ranging from, dealing with general stresses of life, work, relationships issues and breakdowns, bereavement, abuse, depression, anxiety etc.
On the coaching side I work with businesses and their employee’s at all levels from first line managers right up to executives, enabling them to become confident individuals who are able to manage and drive change programmes, improve/develop their management and leadership, influencing and engagement skills. I help them secure stakeholder support and build teams that deliver, gaining clarity on goals and setting strategic plans for the future.
I work with individuals on a variety of topics, including career advice, building better relationships, motivation, goal setting, health and fitness , spirituality to name a few. I help clients achieve success.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Overall rating:
She both have good listening and advising skills. Plus she has a lot of knowledge and insight about important topic (stress, organisation...)
I felt immediately comfortable speaking with Kathryn. She listens and asks the right questions. I feel I am able to understand some of my thoughts and emotions more clearly when we speak.
Kathryn's approach to explain how our body and what we eat biologically affects our mental state has helped me to manage my anxiety better. Kathryn is the first therapist whose therapy approach works best for me due to her ability to explain the reasoning why our mind behaves in certain way. I have consistently practiced her recommendation ever since and I am surprised to find out the better place I am to be now.
I’ve had a lot of therapists over the past 10 years and I can honestly say that Kathryn is the best therapist I’ve ever had. She’s attentive, intelligent, wise, knowledgeable and always gives practical suggestions that greatly benefit me. I couldn’t recommend her enough.
A wonderful therapist, highly recommend.
Kathryn is a great therapist, she listens to understand, is direct, personable, and overall I've found working with her very helpful. When I first linked in with Kathryn I was feeling a lot of distress, a few months later with her support I have been taking positive steps forward and despite some recent set backs I can respond more effectively and have a more optimistic outlook, thank you.
Tailored approach that feels like we are moving forwards
Kathryn is a great therapist would highly recommend. She is very patient and explains things very easily and is good listener. She has helped me alot in a short space of time.
Kathryn is a wonderful, well-rounded therapist. Her breadth of knowledge, whether it be in relationships, career and life itself has been invaluable over the past year. I’m really grateful to be able to speak to her every week.
Kathryn is very experienced, easy to talk to, a good listener, has excellent advice and is very helpful.
Kathryn has been a joy to work with. I particularly appreciate her on point observations and her wealth of knowledge from both her business background, coaching, personal life and various therapy modalities. She listens very actively and is great at finding exactly the frame or narrative that you haven't questioned yourself yet. I always leave sessions feeling better about myself and more optimisic that I will be able to work towards the life I want to live. I recommend Kathryn to anyone who wants a person-centered but to the point and action oriented therapist.
Kath is an amazing listener and offers thoughtful responses. It's clear that she is compassionate, but isn't just going to tell you what you want to hear. She is comfortable disagreeing with you in meaningful ways that help you grow, and has a great sense of humour. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for therapeutic support
Kathryn has been helping me for a while now and she has helped me a lot. She is very patient and professional and gives great advice. And she helps me understand many aspects of life that I wouldn't get without her help!
Kathryn offers practical solutions to manage my mental health. She challenges my statements and listens carefully to my concerns. Her suggestions are both practical and sustainable
She’s exactly what I was looking for in a therapist and I’m really grateful to have her to speak to.
Kathryn is an excellent listener and picks up on things that I am not even aware of but that I recognise when they are pointed out to me. I have felt better even after 1 session with Kathryn because of the helpful coping strategies she provided.
Kathryn is a great listener. They way she speaks is also very calming and she understandable. Since My fist session I can feel the change in myself. I feel much happier and more content :)
I’ve found Kathryn to be incredibly helpful in a very short space of time. She has already highlighted and understood things about my situation that I hadn’t been able to appreciate and her advice is very practical and useful. Only two sessions in and already finding this more worthwhile that the previous therapist I visited in person for a much longer period.
Knowlegable, solution oriented, and good at what she does. Would highly recommend.
