Welcome. I’m Kate, a registered relational psychotherapist
Helping you deepen your capacity for connection - and make sense of what’s shaping your relationship with yourself and others.
Explore how you live, love, and relate in relational psychotherapy.
I work with people who have heartbreak, heartache, and complex relationship patterns that keep hurting them and the people they love.
Together, therapy can help you to uncover the heart of what hurts and gradually give old wounds space to heal.
When the relationship that hurts most is the one you have with yourself
How old relational pain shows up in the struggles you have with yourself today.
The ways we learnt to stay connected can impact how we feel about ourselves, think about ourselves, and treat ourselves today - and include:
Chronic anxiety. Overthinking. Hypervigilence. Emotional numbness. Panic or anxiety attacks. Low self-worth. Perfectionism. Harsh self-criticism. Procrastination. Chronic stress from burning yourself out. Feeling hyper, nervous, and jumpy. Or feeling flat, disconnected, and low - perhaps collapsing at weekends?
You might overwork and find it hard to stop, driven by a relentless need to keep doing. Struggle to know what you need and voice it to others. Trust what you feel - including never quite believing that you’re enough to be loved.
Are your relationships leaving you unhappy? Or are you grieving and heartbroken?
Do relationships get intense quickly and then you lose interest? Are you anxious about getting too close and find yourself pulling away even when you want intimacy?
Maybe you feel misunderstood, rejected, or never quite sure where you stand? Give more than you receive and lose your sense of self to keep your relationship going?
Has a relationship ended? Perhaps someone ghosted you and you're in shock, confused? You wonder what happened but how did I not see this?
Grief and loss have no rules. You can know someone’s gone and still feel numb, unable to move on, and ache for them - even wonder, who am I now?
Hi, I’m Kate - here’s a little about me
I work one-to-one with adults seeking to understand themselves and their relationships more deeply.
My intention is to co-create a collaborative relationship with you that’s engaged, focuses on what matters, and supports your healing and growth.
In sessions, we think together, connect the dots together - and get to the heart of what hurts - together.

You may find these helpful before getting in touch
-
1. We have a free short intro call
You can tell me a little about what’s bringing you to therapy, ask any immediate questions, and get a feel for whether you’d like to meet again.
2. We arrange a Discovery Consultation
This is a 50-minute meeting to explore what you’re hoping for and what working together might look like. We agree on what your initial needs are for therapy - that way we’re on the same page.
It can be online or in person.
3. We decide together
After the consultation, we both think about whether it feels like the right fit.
If it does, we’ll agree how we’d like to begin.
-
Not at all. Often, it isn’t one clear thing anyway. It might a mix of feelings, a specific relationship that’s hurting, a pattern you keep noticing, or simply the sense that something isn’t quite right. We start wherever you are.
-
Yes. I work both online and in person in London.
Most clients prefer in person therapy, for relational issues. However, how I work and the way I am doesn’t change online or in-person. Other than you’ll see more of me if we’re in the same room.
We’ll figure it out once we have our Discovery Consultation. -
Weekly or twice weekly, for 50 minutes.
Meeting at the same time, on the same day, and every week helps build a secure base for our work.
In my experience, this is especially important for relational work where feeling insecure and disconnected is how people often feel in themselves and in their relationships. So consistency in therapy holds significance. -
Yes. What you bring to therapy is confidential, and I work within the BACP ethical framework.
There are some legal and safeguarding exceptions, which I’ll explain clearly before we begin.
Please ask about this if it’s causing any anxiety. -
That’s exactly what the Intro Call and Discovery Consultation are for. You don’t have to decide before we’ve met. We both get a chance to see how it feels and whether working together makes sense.
If it doesn’t, I can see who might be a wonderful therapist for you from my network. -
Sessions are £110 in person and online.
If cost is making you hesitate, you’re still welcome to get in touch.
I can’t always offer a concession, but I’d much rather we talk about it than you assume it’s a no.
There’s always help out there when you know where to find it. If it’s not with me, I can help signpost you to other therapists or organisations.
