Experienced Psychotherapist and Couples Counsellor
Kathleen’s initial work in counselling began with her training in 2010 whilst employed as a Bereavement Service Lead Manager for a local children’s bereavement charity.
This role involved working closely with bereaved children and their families who were finding it hard to envisage a future without their loved ones, with Kathleen helping them to move forward following their loss.
Since qualifying as a counsellor in 2016, Kathleen has amassed a wealth of experience in counselling, also completing an MA in Counselling & Psychotherapy, as well as specialist training in Couples Counselling.
