About Cath
I’m a fully qualified, BACP-registered Humanistic Counsellor and have many years of experience working with young people and adults in distress. I have worked for a number of organisations, including Off The Record, 1-2-1 and MIND and I’ve been particularly effective with bereavement, grief and loss, meaningless and isolation, relationship and self-esteem issues, depression and low mood, adverse childhood experiences, parental alienation, life crisis or transition, separation and divorce and identity issues.
Before training as a counsellor, I worked in education and the film business for many years, so I have some real-world experience to bring to the table. I love crisp Autumn days and the anticipation of Spring. In my spare time, you'll usually find me outside in nature, walking, cycling and wild swimming – or curling up in the evening with a good book, film or box set.
You can find more info about me at Counselling Directory.
The space at 14 Shipton St
It's really important that you feel safe and secure in the counselling space. All in-person counselling sessions take place in my privately-owned ground floor office at 14 Shipton Street in central York. This is not shared with any other businesses or residents, so it's a comfortable, confidential and accessible space. It also has a driveway, so parking is provided too.
