What clients say:

"It has been my pleasure to have received counselling by Katherine Young, whom I can’t say enough good things about. She is a highly intelligent, empathetic, loving, understanding, supportive and very gifted professional. She aided me in uncovering the layers of my personality that bound me to old patterns, which caused repetitive manifestations in my life. Beyond peeling back the onion, she helped me discover the reasons behind my uncovered lack of self-esteem and the emotions they engendered with the resulting behaviours, which I wanted to change. Katherine’s techniques, style, and presence are truly exactly what I needed to begin my path to healing. My life has changed for the better. Thank you, Katherine."

Relationship counselling may address relationships with romantic partners, family members, friends or colleagues. Gaining insight into your relationship patterns can be a key focus of counselling. As a counsellor, I work with people who wish to construct a life full of love, meaning, passion and purpose.

Using integral counselling theory, Katherine's view of counselling includes all aspects of your being, paying special attention to problem areas while also celebrating strengths. Katherine considers the spiritual, intellectual, emotional/creative and physical realms to be of importance in counselling.

Counselling also presents the opportunity to understand your experiences and behaviour in a new way: with clarity and self compassion.

Whatever your reasons for coming to counselling, it is part of the human experience that, at times, we all suffer. Counselling is a way to lessen the suffering.


Another client says:

"Katherine uses a counselling technique that has a very wide range of tools to get to the bottom of things. She is in tune with what works for YOU, which is in line with the personal plan you make with her. I’ve recommended her to many who thought they might like to seek help in dealing with the chaos of life, as she really helped me get the most out of the investment I made into myself. Simply put, Katherine is a compassionate human being with great talent for listening and finding out what works, and most importantly, one gets a sense that she really cares."

It Felt Love

How
Did the rose
Ever open its heart

And give to this world
All its
Beauty?

It felt the encouragement of light
Against its
Being,

Otherwise,
We all remain

Too

Frightened.
