About Me

My name is Katerina, and I’m a counsellor with a BA degree and over nine years of experience providing sexual violence support to adults who have faced sexual violence and domestic abuse. As a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), I employ an integrative therapy approach—tailoring my methods to meet the unique needs of each individual I work with. My passion for this work is deeply personal. Having lived through similar experiences, I understand how isolating and overwhelming the healing journey can feel. This understanding is at the heart of how I hold space for others—gently, respectfully, and without judgment. I believe in the transformative power of safe, therapeutic connections and in every person’s ability to heal and reclaim their narrative. Whether you're just beginning to explore therapy or returning to it, I’ll meet you where you are—with warmth, compassion, and genuine care. 

I’m also a proud parent, and raising my children has enriched my life with deeper meaning and understanding. Additionally, I’ve been a carer for my son, which has provided me invaluable insight into the challenges and difficulties that come with caring for a loved one. Family is at the core of everything I do, and I cherish moments spent walking, enjoying time with loved ones, and creating lasting memories with friends. 

Furthermore, I am fluent in Russian, allowing me to support Russian-speaking clients with ease and understanding.
