Katherine Watt, Reg MBACP Counsellor

How I work

​

I’m a perceptive, warm and understanding therapist, trained in the person-centred approach. My way of working is to help you explore your feelings and experiences at your own pace, in a respectful and non-judgemental environment. I'm committed to providing a safe and trusting counselling relationship that enables you to find your own way to move forward. My aim is that throughout our time together, you'll feel supported, heard and understood.

​

Who I work with

​

I work with people from a diverse range of backgrounds, with a variety of difficulties, including anxiety and depression, relationship issues, workplace stress, loneliness, separation and divorce, and bereavement. A broader list of the things I can help with, is here.

​

I have extensive experience of counselling women as they prepare for and adjust to motherhood, and I've co-facilitated a support group for new mums.

​

Much of my current counselling work is with teachers and other school-based professionals.
