You’ve come to the right place
Perhaps you’re feeling overwhelmed by low mood, worry, or stress. You might find yourself overthinking decisions, or feeling unmotivated.
Perhaps you want to make a change, but don’t know where to start. Or maybe you’re feeling lost, or finding it hard to be hopeful.
Counselling gives you space to think and room to breathe. A place to make sense of how you’ve been feeling, and to make change that lasts. Whatever has been on your mind, we’ll work through it together.
Hello, welcome
I’m Kate Parkins, an experienced counsellor in the North East and online.
Life can ask a lot of us. Along the way, we’ll second-guess ourselves, struggle through change, have our confidence knocked, and carry invisible loads. In the mix there’s love, loss, and the moments that really matter.
Being human can be tangled work - and our changing world doesn’t make it easy.
When we work together, I’ll listen attentively, question gently, and offer challenge when it's helpful. Together, we’ll find new ways to explore what’s been going on for you.
How it works
-
Fill out the contact form and I’ll get in touch with you as soon as possible (usually within 48 hours) to arrange a consultation session.
-
This initial appointment is different to a usual therapy session - we’ll have a wide-ranging conversation about what’s been on your mind, and we’ll explore what it might be like to work together.
This session lasts 50 minutes and costs £30.
-
If we decide to work together, we’ll meet weekly or fortnightly. You might have a specific number of sessions in mind, or you might prefer to keep it open-ended. I’ll regularly check in with you about how you feel it’s going.
Each session lasts 50 minutes and costs £60.
