I have been working with Katie for a couple of months and it has been life changing. I started the sessions not long after having my baby and feeling incredibly stressed and anxious. Katie helped me to see how my thinking patters were contributing to how I felt and most importantly she empowered me to challenge these thought patterns. She supported me to work on my self-esteem and boundaries and also how to care for myself as a new mother. Katie helped hold me accountable in a caring and supportive way to ensure that I was able to make lasting changes in my thoughts and behaviours. I now feel so much more grounded and present. I am able to show up as the mum I always wanted to be and ultimately knew I could be. Katie is kind, professional and friendly and I would recommend her without hesitation,

More about Katarzyna
- 5 years' experience
- Female
- BACP
As a BACP registered counselor/therapist, I approach my work with families,couples, women, men, and youth with over five years of experience in mentoring and life coaching. My journey has involved assisting clients facing diverse challenges such as depression, anxiety, relationship struggles, parenting dilemmas, career obstacles, OCD, ADHD, as well as those who have endured physical trauma or emotional abuse.My therapeutic approach is characterized by warmth and interactivity. I deeply believe in treating each individual with utmost respect, sensitivity, and compassion, rejecting any stigmatizing labels. In my practice, Personal Centered Counseling takes precedence, empowering clients to lead the way in their journey towards self-realization. This approach is non-directive, emphasizing active listening, reflection, and creating a safe, non-judgmental space where clients can freely explore their emotions and thoughts.Additionally, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) forms a significant part of my practice. It operates on the premise that thoughts, feelings, physical sensations, and actions are interconnected, and negative patterns can trap individuals in a cycle of distress. Through CBT, I assist clients in breaking down overwhelming problems into manageable parts, offering practical strategies to foster positive change in their daily lives.Our sessions will concentrate on addressing current challenges and developing practical solutions, rather than dwelling on past issues. I tailor our dialog and treatment plan to align with your unique needs and circumstances, supporting you as you embark on the journey towards a more fulfilling and contented life.If you're ready.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
