Katalin Zakocs
,MSc, BA, PgDipl
I began studying counselling, therapeutic techniques, and psychology over 20 years ago. I hold an MSc in Psychology, a Postgraduate Diploma in Person-Centred and CBT Counselling, a Postgraduate Diploma in Drama Education, and a BA in Counselling and Social Studies.
I have a friendly, non-judgemental approach, and people usually feel comfortable opening up to me. I am happy to work with individuals from all cultural backgrounds.
I have trained in a range of evidence-based therapeutic approaches, including CBT, mindfulness techniques, and autogenic training, as well as transactional analysis, psychodrama, and psychodynamic therapy. I tailor my therapeutic approach to each client's individual needs.
I take a holistic approach to well-being and have also studied complementary practices such as yoga and breathing techniques that can help manage stress. I consider all aspects of a person's life, including their physical health, social connections, and personal beliefs, to support their overall well-being. I believe it is important to view life from multiple perspectives.
I have worked in a variety of mental health settings and multicultural environments, which has strengthened my ability to connect with people from diverse backgrounds. This holistic perspective helps me understand whether spiritual beliefs play an important role in a client's emotional well-being. I take each person's social background and spiritual beliefs into account when seeking to understand their experiences and perspectives.
Creativity plays a vital role in mental health and well-being. Encouraging clients to engage in creative activities is one of my favourite ways to help them explore new perspectives, develop self-awareness, and experiment with new behaviours.

"I’ve had around 7 sessions with Kat and she has been amazing and really supportive. Whenever we chat, I feel like I’m speaking to a really wise friend who helps me view things from a different perspective. I’ve never felt judged despite initially feeling a bit vulnerable sometimes by what I’ve shared. Kat’s been helping me build mental resilience and courage to move forward and face new challenges and experiences that are good for me. I truly appreciate everything. Thank you, Kat."

"Worksheets and videos have been really useful. Therapist had been great. Sometimes the conversations through the message app can get confused as you only have one long thread of messages I.e. you can't start a new message on a new topic."

"It was a bit bumpy with the first pairing but they were honest in that we were not compatible. Then Katalin took over and it was great. Working together, listening, being pushed, challenged (really key) was amazing. Im grateful"

"I am deeply grateful for my sessions with Kat. She is wise, perceptive, and a nonjudgemental listener. Our conversations are helping me to improve my inner life, navigate my outer circumstances, and her insights give me a lot to consider throughout the week. I feel supported, more resilient, and more hopeful as a result of our sessions. If you are looking for a mental health ally, I highly recommend Kat."
