Meet Kate
Kate DawsonCounsellor & executive coach
For over twenty-six years, I built a career in the finance sector, where I held leadership roles focused not only on achieving results but, more importantly, on supporting, developing and empowering people.
It was through those experiences that I discovered what truly mattered to me: helping others recognise their strengths, navigate challenges and grow with confidence.
Alongside my professional career, I trained as both a counsellor and an executive coach.
More about me and my approachThe practical details
Sessions are available online or by telephone. We can talk about what works for you when we first meet.
What happens nextIf cost is a barrier, please feel free to discuss this with me, as a limited number of concessionary spaces may be available.
Coaching packages are available on request.
Getting started
A sentence or two about what’s on your mind is enough. You don’t need to know exactly what you want to work on.
Contact KateI’ll come back to you to arrange an initial conversation. Up to 30 minutes, with no charge, for us to meet and talk about what has brought you here.
If it feels like a good fit, we book a first session and I’ll share the introduction content and contract with you.
A few things you may be wondering
You don’t need to know exactly what you want to work on. If you’re unsure whether counselling or coaching is right for you, we can explore this together in a first conversation.
I usually work on a weekly basis, but we can agree in the initial meeting what would work best for you, and check back once we are into a routine.
A private, comfortable space where you can speak freely and a reliable internet connection or telephone. We can use whichever format you feel most comfortable with.
What you share with me will be treated with respect, care and confidence. There are a small number of exceptional circumstances where I may need to break confidentiality, usually where there is a serious risk of harm, a legal requirement or a safeguarding concern. Wherever possible, I would aim to discuss this with you first.
More about confidentialityI generally work on an open-ended basis for counselling, allowing therapy to progress at a pace that feels right for you. Short-term counselling may also be appropriate. Coaching can be booked as individual sessions or an ongoing programme. We can discuss what suits your needs in our first conversation.
