Katie Bishopp

I am available Mondays and Tuesdays daytime and evenings, and some evenings during the week. 

I am an integrative, Â鶹ԭ´´ accredited counsellor, offering support for adults and young people. I have 20 years experience working with children and young people in educational environments, and I have worked within the NHS Counselling Service, as well as running my private practice. I work both short and long term, offering a warm, non-judgemental and accepting space to explore what may be troubling you in life at this time.

Finding a counsellor can be daunting and seeking help can be hard, and now that you have taken that first step, please do call or email me to have an initial conversation and see if I can be of support to you, or your young person. 

I am able to offer different therapy models, such as CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy)and TA (Transactional Analysis), as well as incorporating creative approaches, to support each individual client. With a person-centred approach at the heart of my work, I believe that you are the expert of your own life and that you have within you all that you need. Counselling can help you rediscover that part of you. The relationship between client and counsellor, I fully believe is key to the success of therapy, and working together we can get you to where you want to be.

I offer a free initial phone call for adults (of up to 20 minutes) to find out more about the support you are looking for and to discuss whether we might be a good fit to work together. For young people, I offer this as a free, 30 minutes face to face session. For both adults and young people, we would then complete an assessment session together.
