About Kathryn Sherfield
Kathryn Sherfield is a fully qualified counsellor who offers both short and long term therapy tailored to each person's needs. She creates a warm, nonjudgmental space and adapts sessions to suit individual circumstances, working with empathy and sensitivity to help clients explore their concerns and build practical coping strategies.
She holds a Level 4 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling (CPCAB), a recognised professional qualification in counselling, and is a registered and accredited member of the NCPS - the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society. Her training includes familiarity with a variety of therapeutic models, and she draws on these approaches to form a strong rapport with clients and meet diverse clinical needs.
Kathryn primarily uses a person-centred approach, supporting clients to develop their own insight and solutions while walking alongside them through their journey. She also integrates other modalities as required, helping clients confirm their own understanding or make small changes that lead to clearer thinking and greater self-confidence. Her aim is to raise self-worth and leave people with tools they can use going forward.
Trust and mutual respect are central to Kathryn’s practice. She commits to being available for regular support, working in a professional and ethical manner, starting and ending sessions on time - sessions are 45 minutes - and maintaining appropriate therapeutic boundaries. She also reviews therapeutic work and the working relationship regularly and, when cancellations occur, offers alternative appointments where possible. With couples, Kathryn applies the same boundaries and techniques, listening to both partners, mediating as needed, and helping couples repair or shape their next steps in a respectful way.

Approaches Used Remotely and How They Help
Client-centred therapy focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the client leads the conversation and the therapist offers empathic support. This approach helps people build self-awareness, clarify values, and gain confidence to make changes in their lives.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, involves identifying and gently challenging unhelpful thinking patterns and trying practical steps to change behaviours. It is often used for anxiety, low mood, and stress by teaching skills that can be practised between sessions.
Mindfulness therapy introduces simple awareness and grounding techniques to help reduce reactivity and increase present-moment focus, which can support people dealing with stress, anxiety, and rumination.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Kathryn will work collaboratively with each person to explore goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, adapting methods as progress is made and needs change.
Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility by allowing sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, to maintain continuity when in-person meetings are difficult, and to access support from licensed professionals and therapists from a convenient location.
