Kathy Rose Counselling + Psychotherapy

I chose Kathy as my trauma therapist after I finally found the courage to commit to therapy after a previous bad experience. I chose Kathy as she had suitable credentials and offered a reduced fee which is what I needed whilst working part time. Kathy revoked my reduced fee after my first session, based on assumptions she made about me because I was ‘very well dressed’ after coming from work and believed I could afford her usual fee. I believe that I didn’t fit Kathy’s stereotype of a vulnerable person needing support so she interrogated me about my finances and ruptured any trust we had built from the first session. I felt any future relationship was irretrievable and I was outraged and upset at her unprofessional behaviour. Kathy made me feel even more vulnerable than I did before I started therapy and this has since impacted my trust in therapists and halted my healing process. .
