I am an experienced psychotherapist and counsellor and I can also offer hypnotherapy privately. My website is milestonetherapies.co.uk. I am based in South West England, just inside Devon, on the border of Cornwall.
My background is in Psychology. I have a BA (Hons) in Psychology from the University of Liverpool, and an MSc. in Social Psychology from the London School of Economics (LSE). Previous roles prior to undertaking professional training as a psychotherapist include being a research psychologist at LSE.
My specialist areas include anxiety (I am an affiliate for Anxiety UK) as well as bereavement (I do work for Cruse as a support worker and also as a supervisor). In addition, I specialise in confidence and self-esteem issues.
We all feel a little lost at times. Maybe you have had to face changes or challenges that you are finding difficult to deal with. Maybe you need to talk things through with someone impartial like me, who will hold your issues in a confidential, non-judgemental and safe space. Perhaps you need guidance and help in achieving your goals, whatever they may be. Remember that you are not alone. I am here to help you find your way and to live your best life. My style is warm and open.
I have a breadth of training which means I can work in a pluralistic way, using my skills to incorporate whichever techniques will serve you best at any particular time in your counselling journey.
Taking the first step is always the most difficult but please reach out to me and remember that your peace and happiness are worth investing your time in.

Kate is very professional, very responsive and she helped me a lot during my burnout. I warmly recommend her!

After a year of therapy with Kate I have achieved things I never would have thought I could do and my personal growth has grown considerably.
I am meeting goals I set at the start and my confidence has grown. She knows when to step in when I begin to self doubt. I can not thank Kate enough for everything she has done to help get me to where I am. I couldn’t have found a better therapist, I highly recommend Kate ♥️

Kate has been really helpful and has been patient and very understanding when I have needed to get things off my chest, I have felt a difference since having sessions with her. She has been amazing.

It has been great to work with Kate. She has been very insightful, kind and respectful. Even after two session I feel more able to manage and respond better to situations.
Written on Aug 30, 2024 after therapy with Kate for 2 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, and self esteem
Kate has been so incredibly supportive over the time that I've been having sessions with her. She is always there to listen with a non-judgemental ear and is always kind and understanding in her responses. She has on numerous occasions set up extremely last minute sessions outside of her normal schedule to talk me through crises and provide assistance. I cannot recommend her enough and will genuinely miss chatting to her.

Kate has helped me open up and explore trauma and once discussed I felt a massive weight off my shoulders and left these troubles behind. All thanks to Kate

Kate, understands my feelings and has been able to draw, my thoughts and feelings to the surface, she makes me think about who I am, who I was and is helping me to change my outlook. Kate is really good at what she does and we seem to have a good rapport. I thank her for all the help she is giving me, and bringing back the real me underneath the grief and years of only being a carer. Thank you Kate.

Kate listens as a professional and has the same feeling of talking with a friend. She asks thought provoking questions and is someone I look forward to meeting with on a weekly basis.

Kate listens to me and encourages me to think about myself in an non judgmental way. She helps reframe my words when I am not giving myself credit. Being able to have someone listen and be unbias about my life is very helpful.

Kate is an excellent therapist. She listens well, is structured, and has really helped me feel more stable. The only things I sometimes wish more of is an emotional connection or understanding (with the professionalism it feels like she's keeping the emotions low) and sometimes less of giving recommendations. Even with that though, I would recommend her. She knows what she's doing.
Written on Jan 05, 2024 after therapy with Kate for 4 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, grief, intimacy-related issues, eating disorders, anger management, and career difficulties
I am not doing therapy for long with her (3 sessions so far), but from the first moment on I knew she is “the one”. I felt confident talking about my issues and she offered me such a lovely safe space to share them. She is very empathetic and I feel that she supports me a lot. When writing her messages, Kate is always responding very fast. There is no time of the week where I feel neglected by her expertise. Also, during the sessions, no matter what type, Kate keeps the conversation perfectly in balance. I can talk long about my experiences and she knows when to hop in, ask questions and maybe redirect me.
I can really recommend her!

Kate, is incredible. She listens and helps me with my racing mind by supplying ideas, tasks. She also follows up on me doing regular check in, so even when I get lost in my own mind and forget to follow up, she does not. I highly recommend Kate!

Kate Wilson is the most wonderful person I have ever come in contact with. I have only talked to her for about four months but she has changed my life in so many ways. She is so kind, supportive and will be there for you in every way.
Could not recommend anyone more than Kate.

I love Kate. She is kind, understanding, never judges and has a variety of tools to offer. My anxiety has improved so much since working with her. Can strongly recommend her ❤️
Written on Feb 04, 2023 after therapy with Kate for 2 weeks on issues concerning adhd
I've seen a lot of therapists over the years (not just on Better Help), and Kate is one of my favourites. I really looked forward to our weekly sessions. I felt that she had a good sense of when to listen and support me, and when to step in with questions and advice, and I always left the sessions feeling a bit better than when I'd gone in. I'm taking a break from Better Help, but when I come back, I hope to work with Kate again. I can definitely recommend her!

Kate has been so helpful, kind and non-judgemental. She has provided me with loads of information and new skills, and sent me worksheets to work with anxiety, adhd and negative thoughts. It's been a pleasure to be her client and I feel much better even after spending quite limited a time with her!

I got matched to the right therapist for me. Wouldn’t have wanted someone else. Kate has been an amazing listener without any judgements or whatsoever, and has provided me with greatly helpful techniques and skills to handle my depression which I once felt was hopeless.
Written on Nov 05, 2022 after therapy with Kate for 6 days on issues concerning stress, anxiety, relationship issues, sleeping disorders, and self esteem
Negative experiences with in-person therapy made me very disinclined to return to therapy. My experience with Kate has changed my perspective, and I am so relieved to have been matched with her.
Kate is professional and I feel very comfortable and at ease talking to her. She has provided me with plenty of very useful techniques, worksheets and activities. I don’t feel rushed to make progress or achieve things, which I greatly appreciate.
I would highly recommend Kate Wilson.
