"When we talk about our feelings, they become less overwhelming, less upsetting, and less scary."

Hello and Welcome


How I Work
​
I am warm, down-to-earth, and empathic. Clients often tell me they feel safe with me quickly because I’m real, approachable, and genuinely invested in their wellbeing.
As an integrative counsellor, I tailor therapy to you. I combine humanistic, person-centred approaches with practical tools like CBT when helpful, so we can explore both what you feel and what you can do.
​
My style includes:
​
-
Deep listening without judgement
-
Helping you understand patterns and beliefs that hold you back
-
Supporting you in building healthy boundaries
-
Encouraging confidence, self-worth, and emotional clarity
-
Processing anxiety, shame, overwhelm, and relationship struggles
-
A collaborative, equal relationship, we work as a team
​
My role is to walk alongside you, helping you find a way forward, regain direction, and reconnect with yourself.


Welcome, I’m Katrina, an Integrative Counsellor based in Stoke Gifford, North Bristol
​
If you are feeling anxious, overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to put yourself first, you are in the right place.
I support adults who struggle with anxiety, people-pleasing, boundaries, low self-esteem, relationship issues, dyslexia, and feeling stuck in old patterns and many more issues.
​
Together, we can work on finding a way forward that feels right for you.
​
I offer a Free 20-minute introductory call. We can have a chat and see if we are a good fit, and to answer any questions you may have.
​
A supportive space to pause, reflect, and feel understood
​
Life can feel exhausting when you’re constantly second-guessing yourself, worrying what others think, or trying to be “strong” for everyone else.
Maybe you feel stuck in old patterns.
Maybe your relationships drain you.
Maybe you’ve been putting your own needs aside for so long, you don’t even know what they are anymore.
​
Counselling gives you a safe, warm, and non-judgmental space to slow down, talk honestly, and begin understanding yourself in a deeper way helping you find a way forward.
This is a place where you will be heard, really heard, without pressure, shame, or expectation.​​
​
Counselling offers a safe space to explore these feelings, rebuild confidence, and find a way forward that works for you.
​
Common reasons people come to me
-
Feeling stuck or lost
-
Anxiety that won’t switch off
-
Struggles with boundaries
-
People-pleasing and putting others first
-
Low self-esteem or self-worth
-
Relationship or attachment issues
-
Feeling overwhelmed or burnt out
-
Navigating dyslexia and related challenges
-
Wanting to understand yourself better
​
If any of these feel familiar, you are not alone and there is support to help you find a way forward.
​
You deserve a place where you are supported, not judged
Many clients have spent years being the “strong one,” the peacekeeper, or the helper. In therapy, you get to be the one who receives care.
​
Together, we can gently unpack what’s been weighing on you and help you build confidence, boundaries, and a stronger sense of self, guiding you toward finding a way forward.
​
Neurodivergent-Friendly Counselling
​
I offer a fully inclusive space for neurodivergent clients.
Whether you have ADHD, dyslexic, or exploring your neurodivergence, you will be met with understanding, patience, and respect.
​
I adapt the way I work to suit your needs, including:
-
Allowing extra time for processing or responding
-
Flexible communication styles
-
Calm, structured, and non-judgmental sessions
-
Supporting clients who find putting feelings into words difficult
​​
I have specific experience in support people who have Dyslexia. Dyslexia affects far more than reading or writing. Many clients experience:​
-
Feeling misunderstood or unseen
-
Low self-esteem from years of comparison or criticism
-
Anxiety in school, work, or social situations
-
Overcompensating, masking, or feeling “not good enough”
​
