You’ve come to the right place

Hi, I’m Kate.

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.

Therapy gives us space to think and room to breathe. A place to make sense of the mess and the meaning. Whatever you bring, we’ll work through it together.

Hello, welcome

I’m Kate Parkins, a qualified and experienced counsellor in Newcastle upon Tyne

When it comes down to it, I just love having meaningful conversations about what matters to people. You can expect warmth, reflectiveness, and curiosity from me in our sessions.

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. 

Get in touch.
