About me and my therapy practice

I offer a non-judgmental, professional and safe environment where you can explore what is troubling you without fear of criticism, rejection or blame. I have experience working with people suffering from a variety of issues including anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, bereavement, OCD, relationship issues (including same-sex and non-monogamous relationships), chronic illness, historical and recent sexual abuse and general unhappiness, and I work with a diverse range of clients.

I hold a Masters In Philosophy from Cambridge University, which sparked a life-long interest in theoretical issues such as ethics and philosophy of mind, and I am qualified in integrative counselling, which combines a person-centred approach with psychodynamic theory. This means that we can explore your thoughts and feelings about your present situation while acknowledging the possible influence of past experiences, and work together to find a way forward.

I understand it takes courage to seek help and am happy to respond to questions by email or arrange a telephone chat for you to air any concerns about aspects of therapy without obligation to book an appointment.

Practice description

I offer weekly sessions in a tranquil garden therapy room which offers a confidential private space. There is free, off-road parking on site and there is a regular bus route from the station/Oxford City Centre to the door.

My first session

Our initial meeting is an opportunity for us to meet and get to know one another; for me to listen to what concerns you and for you to get a feel for me and how I work so that we can decide whether I am the right therapist for you. Please feel free to email me at kathwestcounselling@gmail.com or call on 07895 488342 , I look forward to hearing from you.
