Hello, I'm Catherine (She/Her)
I'm a fully qualified counsellor/psychotherapist with over ten years experience working in mental health and wellbeing. I have worked for the charity Mind and within the NHS. Based in Manchester, I offer counselling and psychotherapy in person, online and over the telephone. I support people like you, to make sense of their feelings and their world, in order to create an improved and more fulfilling life.
About me and my practice
Sometimes life can be challenging and everyone experiences times when they may struggle. I offer a safe space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings to gain insight and clarity and move forward in life.
I trust in the transformative effects of feeling heard and valued by someone who cares and offer an environment which reflects this to help you explore your thoughts and feelings without judgement or feeling criticised.
I have a person centred approach and work in a way that suits you rather than being fixed to one specific mode of therapy. I believe that every person and issue should be treated on an individual basis and encourage personal expression and growth. I integrate a variety of techniques. such as proven self help/CBT techniques, mindfulness and relaxation and exploration of the shadow self to help you overcome challenges and gain a deeper understanding of yourself.
Experience
I have extensive experience supporting a diverse range of clients from all backgrounds and ages, promoting personal strengths to explore and overcome a wide range of issues such as anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, grief and loss, anger and burnout.
