Kate Phillips

Isolation, anxiety, frustration, fear and financial pressure may be weighing heavily at this difficult time in all our lives. Talking with a trained therapist can help. There are many coping mechanisms to use in your own home in between our counselling sessions.

A warm and trusting relationship forms the basis of my counselling work, whether online or at my home based practice in South West London.

I help clients to achieve freedom from whatever is keeping them stuck in unhelpful patterns of behaviour and relating, be it addiction, low self-esteem or past trauma. I achieve this by integrating several types of therapy to guide you through a process of self awareness, growth and greater control. These include Person Centred and Psychodynamic Therapy, Gestalt techniques and Transactional Analysis theory. Basically this means that I have a wide range of concepts and practical skills which can be adapted to each unique client situation at any given time. 

I work from a calm and relaxing room in my home in West Chelsea, close to Fulham Broadway Underground, Imperial Wharf Overground and the many buses on the Kings Road. Sessions are a full hour and payment terms are always flexible. I track your progress via established depression and anxiety scoring methods and I generally achieve noticeable progress within 6 sessions. 

Our first contact would be a free telephone conversation to assess your needs and how I can best meet those in a way that suits your time and financial constraints.
