Hello
Catherine McGuinness
About Me
Catherine is a trainee counsellor, specialising in Person Centred Therapy (PCT). PCT places emphasis on the client over the therapist and it empowers the client to take control of their mental heath and helps improve their sense of self-awareness. An open and trusting relationship between client and therapist is key.
Catherine is a friendly and understanding person, who creates a therapeutic space for clients to use when exploring themselves. She has a 15+ year background in volunteering within Nursing and Residential homes, 10+ years volunteering in mental health organisations, and has been training to become a counsellor for the last 6 years.
Catherine has personal and professional experiences that gives her an insight into how the stressors of day to day living can affect a person, and she uses this knowledge to relate and empathise with clients where applicable.
​
Catherine is a registered student counsellor with the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP), and is working towards securing her Certificate of Higher Education in Counselling to become a fully qualified counsellor.
