My office hours are typically weekdays 11 am-8 pm

I offer focused short-term focused counselling (12 sessions with an option to review the work and extend) or long-term, open-ended psychotherapy. If you choose short-term therapy, I will assist you in focusing on one significant issue.

Calm, confident, and deeply authentic. I listen with real presence, helping you understand what might make starting difficult or why silence can feel uneasy. When you’re not sure what to talk about, I help you explore whatever comes to mind at your own pace.

Grounded in Psychodynamic therapy, I explore how your past shapes your present. I bring a creative, intuitive flow that adapts to your needs and style of expression, offering a supportive space to navigate everything from daily stresses to deep self-understanding.

My communication is straightforward and jargon-free, and I often use practical examples to make things feel clearer and more accessible. I work with a genuine, grounded honesty that supports you to show up exactly as you are.

I have extensive experience supporting individuals in diverse settings, including a crisis retreat, charitable organisations, community counselling services, and a university. These experiences have given me a wide, practical understanding of what people need in different moments of their lives, and they help me offer thoughtful, evidence-based support that’s tailored to each individual.

Specialties:

• Identity

• Trauma

• Loss and grief

• Life transitions 

I support individual adults 18+ with a range of issues.

I offer psychodynamic psychotherapy online. Each 50-minute session is at a set time and day weekly. Please note, I do not offer telephone counselling.

I offer focused short-term focused counselling (12 sessions with an option to review the work and extend) or long-term, open-ended psychotherapy. If you choose short-term therapy, I will assist you in focusing on one significant issue. 

Connect with me

Correspondence with me is via email only: CatherineTough@proton.me.

I offer a free 15-minute video call, which is an opportunity to meet with each other, briefly explain your situation, and ask questions.

Before we get started, I’ll send you a registration form to gather essential details and basic information. The initial 50-minute session is an opportunity to share your concerns in more detail, explore your needs, experience how I work, and see if my approach feels right. There’s no pressure to continue, and sometimes another method or specialist may be a better fit.

If we decide to work together, I’ll provide the contract and privacy notice that explain what you can expect from me, your responsibilities, fees, and other important details. Take your time to read them—these documents are there to make sure everything is clear and comfortable for you. Once agreed, we can begin our sessions together.
