What can therapy do for you?

You don’t have to suffer alone in silence, whatever problems you are experiencing. I offer you safe, confidential, non-judgmental help to assist you in exploring the challenges you are facing. Together, we can work through your experiences, giving you hope and encouragement to find new insights, overcome difficulties and find ways of moving forward.

I specialize in helping couples find better ways to communicate and strengthen their relationships.

If you are struggling with relationship issues and feel you have nowhere to turn, stuck in self-defeating patterns of behaviour, we can look into your past to see if there are childhood and past issues that are causing difficulties. At your pace, we can use new insights to help you make desired changes that give you the confidence to improve your relationships and gain more control in your life.

About Catherine Bruce, Counsellor

My own journey through significant life experiences and personal therapy deeply informs my work as a therapist. I truly understand the value of effective support, and it's what drives my practice. I'm here to help you navigate challenges like increasing self-esteem, coping with change or loss, addressing childhood issues, and improving relationships, among others.

As an integrative therapist, I tailor my approach to you, blending the most effective techniques to provide the right support at the right time.

I hold an enhanced DBS certificate, I work to the BACP ethical guidelines and my work is fully supervised.

"Catherine supported me through one of the toughest years of my life. She helped me make sense of what I was feeling, why I was feeling the way I did, gave me space to be grounded and reflect, and encouraged me to challenge some deeply rooted negative beliefs. I came out with a clearer perspective and a much stronger sense of self. Really thankful for the work we did together"

Mrs G, London

"Over the past year, my experience in counselling has been truly life-changing. Catherine has provided a safe, supportive space where I’ve been able to heal, grow, and better understand myself. Her insight, compassion and guidance have helped me navigate some of the most difficult periods of my life. I genuinely don’t know where I’d be without her help, her support has been invaluable."
