Warm, approachable online counselling for adults

Hello, welcome

I’m Kate Parkins, a qualified counsellor in Newcastle upon Tyne. Have a browse to learn more about how we could work together.

Let’s talk

I offer a confidential space where you can put words to the things on your mind, find direction when it’s not clear, and consider your options for how things could be different.

Being heard is powerful

I won’t tell you what to do, or make decisions for you. Counselling is all about helping you to unpick and overcome the things that are making you feel stuck. I’ll do a lot of listening and some gentle questioning, to help you voice the things on your mind and explore what’s important to you. Find out about me.

 

A different perspective

The way we see ourselves, our relationships, and our place in the world all impacts the decisions we make. Counselling can help us to notice the way our life events have shaped us, and give us the opportunity to make different choices. Find out about therapy.
