About me

Hello, I'm Kathy.

I'm the person behind Glebe Meadow Counselling & Hypnotherapy.

My journey into counselling wasn't a straight line.

I spent 24 years working as cabin crew before moving into education, where I worked as a SEND Teaching Assistant and Emotional Literacy Support Assistant.

Those experiences gave me the opportunity to meet people from many different backgrounds and taught me a great deal about communication, compassion and the importance of really listening.

Eventually, those experiences led me to counselling.

I think that's why my approach is very human.

I'm not interested in putting people into boxes or seeing them simply as a diagnosis or a collection of symptoms.

You're a person first.

My approach:

I'm a Pluralistic Counsellor, which means I don't believe one therapeutic approach works for everyone.

We work together to find what feels useful for you.

Depending on your needs, this might include person-centred counselling, CBT-informed techniques, hypnotherapy or other appropriate therapeutic approaches.

You are the expert in your own life and in the decisions about your therapy.
