Life can be hard. I see each individual as a unique story waiting to be explored, understood, and empowered.

Hi, I'm Kate and I am the founder of Bloom Counselling. I specialise in providing support around anxiety, loss, grief and bereavement. I have a special interest in providing support for anyone affected by cancer or a life limiting illness (such as,MND). With my experience as a Counsellor ,and 20 plus years of being a nurse, I bring experience, empathy and understanding to help you manage this very uncertain time.

Are you tired of being a high achiever who can’t take time off to rest? Are you sick of being a people pleaser who has to sacrifice your own needs to make others happy?

Maybe you think this is impossible, since right now you are depressed and anxious, lost and purposeless, and have unfulfilled relationships & jobs. You have tried to work things through on your own with little success and you are exhausted. It's not your fault! It’s the result of Negative Life Events.

A wish to get better, and a willingness to look inside oneself. These are the only essentials for success in therapy.

It gets full-on at times. Life feels demanding, people seem harsh or confusing, the hurt feels overwhelming, and the answers seem so far away. Other times, you’re left wondering what the point of it all is, and whether there is more to life. I want to help however I can. Helping people to understand themselves, navigate relationships, perceive the world more clearly, and discover meaning in life brings me great joy. Even better is helping people find their own innate resources to cope and to heal.

I place an emphasis on a respectful relationship where thoughts and feelings are treated with sensitivity and honesty. I provide a supportive and relaxed environment, and believe that no thought or feeling deserves judgment in therapy. I enjoy helping people with anxiety, phobias, OCD, depression, trauma, problems with assertiveness, anger, behavioural problems, and relationship issues. I hope to offer people an opportunity to understand what is happening inside themselves that is causing their suffering, to build skills to regulate anxiety, to gain stability in relationships, and to heal and unlock potential.

I enjoy working with individuals of all ages seeking to think together about and make sense of their experience and how this has come to shape who they are, their relationships and their way of being in the world.

I also enjoy supporting parents in understanding their child's emotions, addressing parenting challenges, and strengthening the parent-child relationship.
