About Me

katyMy name is Katy Lee (MBACP) and I offer a Counselling and Psychotherapy service in Bushey and Watford, Hertfordshire as well as working from an established facility offering counselling in Hemel Hempstead.

I have completed four years advanced training in Psychotherapy at The Manchester Institute for Psychotherapy (MIP) which is a member organisation of The United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP). Accordingly I possess a Diploma in Transactional Analysis Psychotherapy. This means I am qualified to provide Counselling and Psychotherapy for a variety of issues and have a well rounded knowledge of techniques and experience in order to ensure I provide the best service I can for anyone who wishes to enter into therapy with me.

I am a member of both The BACP (MBACP) and UKATA, The United Kingdom Association For Transactional Analysis, and work in accordance with their codes of practice and ethics. Information about this can be found on the UKATA website.

I am also fully insured by The Psychologists Protection Society for the benefit of both my clients and myself.

Counselling in Watford, Hertfordshire

I currently run my practice from two well established Therapy Centres in the Bushey area of Watford, Hertfordshire and both are within easy reach of Watford Town Centre and surrounding areas such as Harrow, St. Albans, Kings Langley, Hemel Hempstead, Stanmore and North London.

Counselling in Hemel Hempstead

In addition I also offer counselling services from an established facility in Hemel Hempstead’s Old Town.

Since completing my diploma and having been endorsed (assessed by a UKCP registered trainer to work with the public) I have worked for the past two years at a refuge and rehabilitation facility as one of their in house Therapists and Counsellors, working primarily with substance misuse and other addictions but also dealing with a wider range of problems and underlying issues as presented by the client. This experience has solidified my love and appreciation of the positive power of Psychotherapy and how people can make changes to their lifestyles should they wish to.

I now work in private practice and offer Therapy in Watford for a variety of issues and problems. There is a list on my website with a number of reasons people may enter into Psychotherapy, however it is by no means a complete list, more suggested examples. Sometimes people may wish to have some Counselling sessions to explore without really having a firm outcome in mind and this is ok too. As a therapist I tailor my practice to the individual needs of the person I am working with as I believe this ensures clients get the best from out time together.

For the benefit of both my clients and myself as a Therapist I have regular Supervision with a UKCP registered Supervisor. This time allows me to offer the most effective, well rounded service possible to anyone who enters into a Psychotherapeutic relationship with me.

Psychotherapy is a confidential service and every client is treated with respect and integrity at all times. In addition to that you can also be assured of an open and honest approach to the therapy and the provision of a safe space in which we can work together, looking at both presenting issues and underlying problems with the goal of bringing about positive change.
