Hello, I’m Kate Merrick, a qualified psychotherapist, specialising in the areas of anxiety, low self-esteem and the healing of soul wounds.
My experience as a woman of dual heritage shapes my interests in working with issues of trauma, culture, ancestral legacies, female identity and women’s health - this includes associated experiences of shame, guilt, anger, intergenerational trauma, feeling disempowered and loss of identity/voice.
Having trained for 5 years at the Gestalt Centre London, I obtained a Post Graduate Diploma and Masters Degree (2012) in both individual and group psychotherapy. I have since obtained a Certificate in Intuitive Healing with The Healing Trust (2015) and a Certificate in Biodynamic massage (2020), with the Cambridge Body Psychotherapy Centre. I now offer counselling, Biodynamic massage, and therapy in West London.
How I can help
For many years, I have worked with women suffering from low self esteem, women that feel stuck, unsatisfied, those who feel clouded by shame, attacked by a harsh inner critic, women who feel disconnected from their bodies, or have lost their authentic voice, and those who feel disempowered and lack an internal sense of clarity and authority.
In this work, it is my intention to help you see yourself more clearly, which creates the space for outmoded thoughts and historical patterns of behaviour to naturally emerge. The way in which we come to view ourselves is often organised by the very subtle yet pervading core beliefs we develop about ourselves. Therapy can help to unpack these unconscious beliefs, allowing you to become fully aware of the narrative you hold yourself to, inviting you to challenge outmoded ways of thinking and beliefs that may no longer serve you.
My approach supports a gentle integration of mind, body and spirit, strengthening our existing resources and developing new ones, which can lead to a greater sense of safety, satisfaction, autonomy and freedom.
