Catherine Butler

Catherine offers counselling and psychotherapy for individuals and couples in Weybridge, Guildford and online. With over a decade of clinical experience, she supports people with a wide range of emotional and relational difficulties, including anxiety, depression, stress, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, trauma, ADHD, neurodiversity and emotional overwhelm.

People seek therapy for many different reasons. You may be feeling anxious, low, stuck, or overwhelmed, struggling within a relationship, or finding that familiar patterns continue to repeat despite your efforts to change them. You may also be trying to understand yourself in the context of ADHD, ASD, AuDHD, or other forms of neurodivergence, or working through the impact of trauma and difficult past experiences.

Catherine provides a warm, supportive, and non-judgemental space where you can speak openly about whatever is troubling you. She works collaboratively and at your pace, helping you explore both present difficulties and the earlier experiences that may continue to shape how you feel, relate to others, and respond to situations now.

As a psychodynamic counsellor and psychotherapist, Catherine pays attention to patterns that may sit outside immediate awareness. Bringing these into view can help you understand why certain feelings, relationships or situations feel so difficult and create the possibility of responding differently. The aim is not simply to manage symptoms, but to develop a deeper and more lasting understanding of yourself.

Catherine works in line with professional ethical guidelines, maintaining clear boundaries, confidentiality, and respect for your autonomy. She is committed to providing a safe and responsible therapeutic environment and engages in regular supervision and ongoing professional development to support her practice.

Catherine works with a range of difficulties, including:

• Anxiety, depression, stress, and low mood
• Neurodiversity e.g. ADHD, ASD, AuDHD, and dyslexia
• Low self-esteem, confidence, and feelings of shame
• Relationship and interpersonal difficulties
• Family relationships and childhood experiences
• Trauma and the impact of difficult past experiences
• Identity, sexuality, and life transitions
• Intrusive thoughts, self-harm, and suicidal thoughts
• Feeling stuck, disconnected, or unsure of yourself

Catherine is an experienced psychodynamic counsellor and psychotherapist working with both individuals and couples. She is also a qualified clinical supervisor, supporting trainee and practising counsellors and psychotherapists with their clinical work and professional development.
