Hello, my name is Cait and I’m an integrative counsellor and therapist.
I understand that counselling and therapy can be daunting and that choosing what type of therapist seems right for you can be confusing and overwhelming. I believe that we all are deserving of a safe space in which we can bring parts of ourselves which might be hard to discuss, feel hidden or shameful and be met with compassion and non-judgement. I aim to provide a safe-space for you to feel seen. heard and supported, working collaboratively to support growth and to enable you to make the changes you may wish to in your life.
As an integrative counsellor I bring together different modes of therapeutic working including psychodynamic, person-centred, and existential to create something which is uniquely tailored to you. I aim to meet you where you are and to support you in developing a greater sense of autonomy over your life. This often involves me helping to disentangle the emotional knots which may be preventing you from living as you might wish to. Together we can work through what is concerning you and help you understand what has happened in your past and how it may be affecting your present.
All of the work I conduct is underpinned by a belief that when we are able to communicate openly new ways of being with ourselves and others can be discovered. The work of therapy can be a difficult process, for some challenging memories, thoughts and feelings can be awoken and evoked. Through the building of a trusting alliance between us we can venture these potentially difficult waters together.
I have an MSc in Therapeutic Counselling and have worked with clients on a range of presenting issues and have experience in; relationship struggles, trauma, depression, anxiety, identity, sexuality, self-esteem, family issues and abuse.
The duration of therapy can be open-ended or can be set to a fixed number of sessions depending on what you are looking for. Either way I will make sure we are regularly checking in to see how you are finding the experience and what we can do to make it better for you. I offer an initial 25-minute online assessment free of charge for you to get a sense of whether you think we would work well together.
Fees
My fee is £60 per session. I offer concessionary rates for current psychotherapy/counselling trainees. Please reach out to my email if you have any questions, want to know more or wish to book in an introductory call.
