About Katie Foster
There’s no denying that sometimes life, with all its ups & downs, can feel like a never ending roller-coaster ride! But if you knew how to handle the ride with understanding & ease, just imagine how amazing your life & your relationships could be!
Please let me introduce myself...
Hi, my name’s Katie. I’m a fully qualified Integrative Counsellor, Psychotherapist & Life Coach & I work with teenagers & adults from a wide range of backgrounds, in either a 1:1 setting, as a couple or in a group. My approach to counselling allows flexibility so that we can tailor our sessions to be sensitive to your personal needs.
If you’re curious as to whether counselling or coaching is for you, I’m pleased to offer an initial *FREE* 30 minute appointment, where we’ll have an opportunity to meet & chat about what you’d like therapy for. If after our time together, you’d like to take things further that’s great & we can set up our next appointment. Alternatively, if you find that counselling or coaching aren’t right for you, that’s absolutely fine as you’re under no obligation to take things further.
What I can help with...
I’m able to help with a wide range of challenges & issues, ranging from (but not limited to) managing stress, relationship & family issues, addiction, anger, anxiety, low self-esteem & lacking confidence.
I provide a safe & confidential space for each of our sessions, which last for between 60-90mins.
I’m here to listen & to understand how life is for you, because there are times when we just need to be heard so we can start to make sense of the challenges we’re facing.
Through listening & understanding I can support & encourage you to find answers to your problems, so you can begin moving forward with confidence and become the person you want to be.
I’m with you every step of the way on your journey of self-acceptance & change in the areas you’d like to improve & we’ll work at your pace and in whatever way feels most comfortable for you. With this in mind, I’m happy to offer either short or long-term therapy and this is something we can discuss together.
My background...
From a young age I instinctively knew that I wanted to help people &, many years later when I came across counselling and then coaching, I knew that I’d found my vocation & a way that I could genuinely make a difference.
Prior to becoming a counsellor, I worked as a Personal Assistant, Executive Secretary and then finally as a Virtual Assistant. Working for a variety of companies from solo entrepreneurs to large corporate organisations, I seemed, more often than not, to secure positions that ensured I worked with some of the strongest and most challenging characters in the business! But, never one to turn away from a challenge, I thrived on finding my own personal way of establishing a human connection, that allowed both mine & my bosses days to run as smoothly as possible.
During my time working in these roles, I gained firsthand experience of the pressures of the business environment, the challenges of juggling a busy job & a family & the difficulties of working within an office culture while still trying to be myself. I bring all that I’ve learned from this time & other experiences in my life to my work as a counsellor.
