Katie Norsworthy, NCPS

Many clients find clear, practical techniques useful. Katie draws on evidence-based methods to do this in approachable ways. For example, trauma-focused work helps people process distressing memories and reduce the intensity of triggers. This can support people who have experienced abuse or ongoing traumatic stress. She also uses anxiety-focused strategies that teach grounding and breathing skills, and introduce gradual steps to face feared situations while reducing panic and overwhelm.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Katie treats selection of methods as collaborative - she listens to your goals and adapts techniques to suit your needs and preferences. If something doesn't feel helpful, she will adjust the plan and try other ways to reach the same goal.

Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls allow conversational depth and non-verbal cues, while phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a break. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, immediate reflections, or when writing feels easier than talking. These options make it simpler to keep continuity and to choose the format that fits a person's routine and needs.
