About Catherine Garbutt
Catherine Garbutt is a UK-based therapist who brings both professional training and personal insight to support people facing a wide range of challenges. She has worked with clients dealing with stress and anxiety, coping with grief and loss, motivation, self-esteem and confidence, depression, personal, professional and relationship issues, domestic and sexual abuse, and medical and health concerns. She is experienced working with both neurodivergent and neurotypical clients and approaches each person as the expert of their own story.
Catherine holds the NCPS credential, a qualification indicating professional training in counselling and psychotherapy. She emphasizes clients' existing strengths as a foundation for change and frames the first step toward a more fulfilling life as an act of courage. In sessions she aims to provide collaborative support while helping clients explore their concerns and develop practical coping strategies.
Counselling with Catherine focuses on understanding worries, learning new ways to manage thoughts, feelings and behaviours, and building confidence over time. Progress can feel like a roller coaster with ups and downs, yet the shared aim is to reach a steadier place. She does not offer a magic wand - meaningful change requires active work from both the client and the therapist - and her role is to facilitate a process that empowers clients to make decisions that will serve them into the future.
Catherine offers a range of appointment times and is willing to arrange sessions outside her usual schedule by mutual agreement. Prospective clients are invited to get in touch when they feel ready to begin their journey.
