Hi, my name is Kate Montagu, this page will tell you a little bit about me and my therapeutic approach and background. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or would like to book a session on the contact page. 

​

My care for others and facilitating personal growth began long before my venture into the field of psychotherapy. For over a decade, I worked as a massage therapist, providing care and support to my clients. During those years, I developed a deep understanding of the mind-body connection and witnessed firsthand the power of touch and empathy in fostering healing and well-being.

​

While my work as a massage therapist was rewarding, I felt a desire to expand my skills and knowledge to offer a more holistic approach to support my clients. This led me to pursue a Masters in Gestalt Therapy, which has become the foundation of my practice today.

​

Gestalt Therapy resonated with me due to its emphasis on the present moment and the exploration of the individual's thoughts, emotions, and experiences within the context of their whole being. This approach recognizes the interplay between mind, body, and environment and aims to promote self-awareness, personal growth, self-support and improved well-being. Highlighting the choices we are making on a daily basis which support or inhibit our full expression of self. By raising our self-awareness of how we are in the world we have more capacity to grow. We will explore how you are utilising dialogue, the relationship we create, active experiments with other ways of being, and creativity.

​

I have a particular interest and focus on neurodivergence, relationship issues, and LGBTQIA+ issues.

​

I am truly honored to be a part of your therapeutic journey, and I look forward to walking alongside you as you uncover your inner strengths, gain insights, and create meaningful changes in your life. Together, we can explore new perspectives, develop healthy coping strategies, and embrace a more fulfilling and authentic way of being.

 

Feel free to reach out to me to schedule a session or inquire further about how I can assist you. I am excited to embark on this transformative journey with you.
