Kate's way of working

Kate is a person-centred / experiential therapist which means that she aims to help clients explore their feelings, thoughts and experiences in a safe, confidential and supportive environment. She sees each client as unique and works to support each individual to gain a better understanding of themselves and their lives. Kate may use elements of cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) in her client work where she feels this meets the needs and preferences of an individual.
