Kate Wilson is an experienced psychotherapist and counsellor offering a range of therapeutic approaches from her practice in South West England, just inside Devon on the border of Cornwall. She also provides hypnotherapy on a private basis and maintains a website at milestonetherapies.co.uk.

Her academic background is in psychology, holding a BA (Hons) in Psychology from the University of Liverpool and an MSc in Social Psychology from the London School of Economics (LSE). Before training professionally as a psychotherapist she worked as a research psychologist at LSE and she is currently training to become a clinical supervisor for other therapists.

Kate specialises in anxiety – she is an affiliate of Anxiety UK – and in bereavement, working for Cruse both as a support worker and as a supervisor. She also focuses on confidence and self-esteem, and has experience supporting people with stress, depression, coping with life changes, addictions, relationships and family matters, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping difficulties, parenting, anger, career concerns and bipolar disorder. Her practice also includes coaching and support for compassion fatigue.

She describes her therapeutic style as warm and open, and draws on a breadth of training to work in a pluralistic way – using the techniques that best serve each person at different points in their counselling journey. Kate is a non-religious female therapist and brings ten years of clinical experience to her work.

She encourages people who feel lost or challenged by change to reach out, emphasising that taking the first step can be difficult but worthwhile. Kate aims to offer a supportive, non-judgemental space to help clients work toward their goals and greater wellbeing.
