Cathy: Psychotherapeutic Counsellor and Hypnotherapist

About Me

Hello! I’m Cathy.

I am based in Milton Keynes and I offer online or face-to-face counselling and hypnotherapy to help you overcome challenges, build resilience, and reconnect with your inner strength.

I understand that looking for therapy can feel like a huge step, which is why my focus is to create a warm, safe, and non-judgmental space where you can feel comfortable to be yourself and share openly. With more than 15 years of experience, I've had the honour of supporting people with a wide range of mental health challenges, through various charities and schools.

I have a Diploma in Hypnotherapy and Counselling Skills (DIP Hyp CS) and a Professional Diploma in Psychotherapeutic Practice (PROF. DIP PSY C). I use different therapeutic methods like Person-Centred Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, CBT, and Hypnotherapy. This way, I can tailor our sessions to fit your unique needs and goals. It’s all about finding the right support for you.

 I offer a free, no-pressure 15-minute phone call. It’s an opportunity to ask questions, share a little about what you're looking for, and see if we’re a good fit. Please get in contact if you would like to book one in.

So, why not take a look around my website? You’ll find more info on the services I offer and how we can work together to support your journey.

At its core, Kintsugi is not just about fixing what’s broken: it’s about honouring the fractures, embracing the imperfections, and finding beauty in the process of repair. In the counselling context, Kintsugi represents a transformative journey towards wholeness, where you can learn to rediscover your inner strength and embrace your unique story. Kintsugi teaches us that our scars tell stories of resilience, growth and survival.

The application of gold in Kintsugi holds powerful symbolism. Gold represents not only material wealth, but also spiritual richness, enlightenment and transformation. In the context of counselling, finding your inner gold means discovering the inherent value and strength within yourself. It’s about recognising the unique qualities, talents and virtues that make you precious and irreplaceable. Through self-reflection and introspection, you can unearth your inner gold – your core essence, resilience and potential for growth.

 The process of repairing pottery in Kintsugi requires patience, skill and mindfulness. Similarly, the counselling journey is a gradual process of self-discovery and healing. I am here to support you through this delicate process with compassion and empathy.

 Ultimately, Kintsugi teaches us that our scars do not diminish our worth: they enhance our beauty and resilience. By embracing our imperfections and finding our inner gold, we can emerge from life’s challenges stronger, wiser and more whole than before.

Kintsugi, a metaphor for the counselling journey. Honouring the fractures, embracing the imperfections and finding beauty in the process of repair.

Kintsugi, the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with gold, offers a profound metaphor for the counselling journey.
