FULLY BOOKED UNTIL 8th FEBRUARY 2027
Hey, I’m Kate.
Trauma-informed Breathwork Facilitator and Mindstate Therapy
If you don’t change, nothing will change
The suffering, the reactions you can't explain, the behaviours you never wanted, none of it is a flaw.
It's an unconscious programme, and we change it at the root, so it finally stops. Put the weight of your past down and start truly living, maybe for the first time.
On paper, you've got it together. Inside, it's a different story.
You look confident, but there's a quiet second-guessing that follows you into every room.
You're standing at a threshold, a new chapter, role, or version of yourself, and something keeps pulling you back to the old one.
The anxiety arrives in your body before your mind can even explain why.
You've tried to think your way out of it. It works for a week, then the pattern returns.
Here's what most people never get told: this isn't a character flaw. It's a pattern, learned in your mind and stored in your nervous system. And patterns can be changed.
My Approach
Real change happens in two places at once.
Most coaching works with your thinking. Most somatic work works with your body. Lasting change needs both, so we work top-down and bottom-up.
Top-down: rewiring the mind. We work with the beliefs, language, and thinking that drive your patterns, using NLP, Timeline Therapy, and Neuro-practitioner tools to interrupt them and rebuild from the root.
Bottom-up: regulating the body. We work with your nervous system through trauma-informed Breathwork, so change isn't just an idea you understand. It's a shift you actually feel.
Mindset alone doesn't hold. The body alone doesn't have direction. Together, they change the pattern for good.
Who I Work With
You keep hoping you'll wake up one day and feel different. You've been hoping that for years.
You've told yourself the anxiety will settle once things calm down. Things have never quite calmed down.
You don't understand why you react the way you do, and you don't like who it turns you into.
You snapped at your kids over something small, and you were still carrying it at midnight.
You're brilliant under pressure at work, and you fall apart in the car afterwards.
You've worked on yourself for years, and the same thing keeps finding its way back.
You can feel yourself holding back, and you can't put your finger on why.
You know you're capable of more. Something you can't name keeps capping it.
If even one of those landed, you're in the right place. Nobody's assessing whether your thing is big enough. If it's holding you back, it belongs here.
My clients come from all walks of life. Different lives, different pressures, the same thing running underneath. Teachers. Parents. Athletes. Entrepreneurs. Sustainability leaders. Police officers. Surgeons. Special Forces operators. Everyday people.
Here's the part no one tells you: none of that is your personality. It was never a lack of trying either. It's a pattern, learned young, built to keep you safe, and still running long after you needed it. You've been trying to think your way out of something that was never in your thinking. That's why it hasn't shifted.
Patterns can be changed. That's the work.
What you can expect to shift
You'll understand why. Not just what you do, but where it came from. And because you're guided to see it yourself rather than told, you keep changing it long after we're done.
The reaction loses its grip. You stop white-knuckling the same response. What used to run you becomes something you notice, and then something you choose.
The past stops deciding your present. Old experiences stay in the past instead of shaping how you react now. Worked through somewhere safe, at a pace you set.
Confidence that holds under pressure. Self-doubt loosens and something steadier takes its place, whether you're competing, operating, leading, or just getting through a hard day.
You can actually switch off. The wound-tight feeling settles, and it shows up in the real stuff: better sleep, more energy, more of you left at the end of the day.
It carries into everything. Work and home, sport and business, the people you love. When the pattern underneath shifts, everything built on top of it shifts too.
And it holds. Practical tools, follow-ups, and a plan you understand, so this doesn't fade in a fortnight like everything else you've tried.

What makes this offering different is the power of being in the room together. In person, breathwork goes deeper. There's nowhere to hold back, nothing to manage, just you, fully supported, able to let your body release what it's been carrying for years. Held in a space that's safe and completely yours, the shifts land harder and integrate faster than anything a screen can offer.

"She has been an instrumental part of my journey."
Working with Kate has been one of the most transformative decisions of my life. She has been an instrumental part of my journey - helping me navigate the complexities of business, life, and everything in between.
For years, I didn’t fully grasp the importance of regular therapy, but through Kate’s guidance, I now understand the power of having a trusted support system.
Her ability to help me see challenges from a new perspective, push through self-doubt, and build resilience has been life-changing.
Because of her, I know that whatever life throws my way, I have the tools and confidence to tackle it head-on. I’m beyond grateful for the impact she’s had on both my personal and professional growth.

"I now have an arsenal of tools that I tap into daily and my work has since flourished"
I was recommended Kate by a friend after struggling with imposter syndrome and confidence in my freelance work. I was second-guessing my decisions and avoiding speaking up.
One of Kate’s greatest gifts is creating a safe space. From our first session, I immediately felt safe and genuinely heard, surprised that I’d take so much away from one session! After finishing my work with Kate, I now have an arsenal of tools that I tap into daily and my work has since flourished.
Another thing that really stood out was Kate’s adaptability is another gift she has. Halfway through our time together, my dad was diagnosed with cancer while I was living abroad. After dropping this news on her with no prior warning, she immediately adjusted the sessions to help me support him through treatment and process grief. Kate held me steady when everything around me felt like it was falling apart and, most importantly, showed me the tools to support myself during times like this. I now have these for life!

"I was blown away by the effect that this has had on my frame of mind and the progress we were able to make in such a short time"
I have worked with Kate for 3 years on and off as I have navigated different areas of life. I was blown away by the effect that this has had on my frame of mind and the progress we were able to make in such a short time. I felt as though a weight had lifted and my perspective had truly opened up.
Kate has an incredible intuitive ability to use appropriate prompts and cues to get the most out of every single session without being overwhelmed, particularly when dealing with past trauma.
Her follow-ups, practical tasks, and ongoing guidance further cement the progress made in each and every session. Writing this even makes me emotional because I have nothing but gratitude for Kate and her unique ability to genuinely help and care for her clients.
We have come a long way together and achieved a lot and forever grateful to her.

"Working with Kate in my lead up to the Tokyo Olympics was incredibly powerful "
Weightlifting seems like a very physical sport, but in reality it's all about mindset, if you don't truly believe you can lift a weight it won't happen.
Working with Kate in my lead up to the Tokyo Olympics was incredibly powerful and it enabled me to overcome some mental barriers I had.
I left our sessions with an incredible inner confidence that has contributed to my ongoing success in the sport of weightlifting but also in day to day life as a business owner.

"She never just tells you what the problem is but guides you there, which allows you to accept what is happening and teaches you how to recognise it and change it"
I began working with Kate when I was feeling a little lost in the world. She has taken me on a journey the past year or so that has ultimately allowed me to create a life that is so much better than where I started.
I work in what can be a stressful job as a surgeon, and have always set very high expectations for myself in all aspects of life. Kate has taught me how to ride the ups and downs of life. I have learnt why I am the way I am, how to better handle stressful situations and accept the past. No matter how little or ridiculous the issue was, Kate hunts down the root cause.
She never just tells you what the problem is but guides you there, which allows you to accept what is happening and teaches you how to recognise it and change it. It's hard to put into words just how much of a positive impact Kate has had on me.

"She equipped me with invaluable tools and strategies, making a lasting impact"
I reached out to Kate after reflecting on the past year and identifying key areas to shift as I approached one of the biggest years of my career, culminating in the Paris Olympic Games.
With no prior connection, Kate provided an unbiased, holistic perspective that helped me shift my mindset, stay composed in challenges, and regain trust in my skills.
She equipped me with invaluable tools and strategies, making a lasting impact. I truly enjoyed the process and headed to the Games confident in the work we had done, which contributed to our overall success.
Kate's support helped me navigate a really challenging but rewarding year and has continued to help me as I move into the next (and best) chapter yet! I look forward to working with her again.

FAQ
-
We begin with a free 20-minute consultation. It's a chance to meet properly, make sure we're the right fit, and walk through how your sessions will work based on the programme you choose and what you're navigating to get the best results from your sessions.
-
Q: What actually happens in a breathwork session?
It depends on whether you're doing a Breathwork Journey or using Breathwork Tools.
Breathwork Journeys run for a full hour and go deeper, while Breathwork Tools are shorter and more focused. Before our session together, I prep you fully and in detail based on which one you're doing and the purpose behind it, and we run through short, fun exercises to practise the style of breath we'll be using. For full Breathwork Journeys, we also make sure you meet the safety requirements before we begin. We'll always make sure the setting is right and comfortable for you, so by the time we start, you'll feel ready and confident, and everything is tailored to what best suits your nervous system so the pace always meets you where you're at.
-
You don't need to have this figured out before reaching out. Choosing the right programme is exactly what our free 20-minute consultation is for. We'll talk through what you're navigating, what you're hoping to get out of our time working together, and where you're at right now. Once I have clarity on exactly what you're navigating, it becomes clear which type of programme is most suited to getting you the best results, and I live by "sometimes less is more."
-
I keep payments simple and easy to manage. Whichever programme you choose, the total investment for the programme is broken down into 4 monthly payments, so it's more manageable rather than paying it all upfront. There are no extra hidden costs and no surprises. What you see is what you pay, just split across four months.
-
Corporate packages are tailored specifically to your company's needs and size, so there's no one-size-fits-all option. Whether you're looking to support a small team or roll something out across a larger organisation, I'll work with you to create a package that fits. Please get in touch to discuss this further, and we can talk through exactly what would work best for your people.
-
Yes. Having a diagnosis doesn't exclude you from this work, but it does mean we take extra care in how we approach it. With your permission, I'll work alongside your medical professional so the two of us can stay connected and create a cohesive support network around you. That way, what we do together complements the care you're already receiving rather than working against it. Together, we'll also work out which style of breathwork is best suited to you, depending on your diagnosis, because not every approach is right for every person. The goal is always to support your wellbeing safely, at a pace that's right for you.
