Kate James

WELCOME!

NCS Accredited.

Are you caught in the whirlwind of anxiety, overwhelmed by stress, or wrestling with the complexities of relationships? If so, you've come to the right place. Seeking help is a courageous step, and I'm here to offer you a bridge from where you are to where you want to be.

Hello, I'm Kate, and I would love to help you find peace in your life. I work face to face in Malmesbury and online.

Working with adult individuals on both short-term and long-term basis, I offer a tailored approach to suit you, helping you clear intrusive thoughts for your positive wellbeing.

Face to face and video sessions are available.

I qualified with a psychology degree with the Open University in 2006, supplementing this with counselling and psychotherapy training, followed by hypnotherapy in 2013, and have worked in placements and private practice since 2008.

Prior to studying psychology, I worked in PA / Office Manager roles, supporting Managing Director(s) of multi national companies in commercial enterprises. I have always held a strong interest in people and the patterns of human processes. Our well-being is important for survival and given effective support, we can find find tools within for change.

I'm passionate about helping people become more self-accepting, building self-awareness that helps you become the best version of yourself.

ITalking things through with someone who is not connected to you and your life can help bring a spotlight to aspects you may want to shift.

Working creatively with worksheets, images, and even stones helps when the words don't come easily and may give oowerful subconscious insight

As an integrative therapist, I provide tailored support for anxiety, stress and relationships.

I provide a tailored approach to what you bring, sometimes bringing the past up can bring resolutions in the present.
