Catherine Prosser

I work on a Monday, Friday and Saturday with clients face to face.

 I will have capacity to take on new face to face clients on a Friday from mid January

 I am not taking on any new referrals for  remote counselling at present as I am at capacity. 

Hi I'm Cathy, I work with adults, children and young people. 

Sometimes life can feel very overwhelming, you or your child may be struggling to find your way, by exploring your situation together I can help you or your child to navigate the uncertainty. Together we can explore thoughts and help to find clarity.

I have experience of working with Depression, Anxiety, Trauma, Bereavement, low self esteem (confidence), bullying, work problems, self harm, relationship and friendship problems.

I work in a creative way with children and young people which allows them to feel comfortable and encourages them to open up and talk about their struggles.

Reaching out for support can feel really difficult

When you contact me for either yourself or your child we will arrange our first session and during this session we will explore what has brought you to counselling. This is a great opportunity for you, your child and myself to decide if we think we will work well together, it will be an opportunity for you to ask questions and for me to get a good understanding of the problem, whilst clarifying anything you are unsure about. This initial assessment session is not a commitment from you to continue, you will be offered time to get back to me so that you can think about it with no added pressure. If you do decide you wish to continue with further sessions we will work out if weekly or fortnightly suit you best. 

I offer concessionary rates to student counsellors. Please enquire for further information.

I work with clients face to face from my lovely insulated garden cabin or I can offer Zoom or telephone counselling. 

I am able to offer long term or short term sessions and this is something we can discuss further when you contact me. 

I work integratively using a variety of approaches or models dependant on the issues you discuss in your sessions.

When working with Children and Young people I will use a more creative approach, this helps to build the trust between us and helps them to open up and get the most from the counselling sessions.

I can offer a free short telephone call initially to discuss your needs and for you to ask any questions you may have then if we decide that I am the right counsellor for you we will book our first session. 

The first session is about identifying together the main areas you would like to work on.
