Counselling Services in Bournemouth
Welcome to Katie Marie Talking Therapy. Are you experiencing emotional challenges or navigating important life transitions?
I offer professional and compassionate counselling services to individuals in Bournemouth and throughout the UK, accessible through online platforms, video calls, and phone consultations. If you are dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or past trauma, I provide a safe and confidential space for you to explore your feelings, gain insight, and promote positive changes in your life.
Hi I’m Katie,
I’m a qualified counsellor based in Wareham, Dorset with a genuine passion for helping adults, children, and young people find emotional balance, confidence, and personal growth.
​
My approach is warm, understanding, and completely tailored to you — because everyone’s story is unique.
​
Life can feel overwhelming at times — whether you’re coping with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, or simply feeling stuck. I offer a calm, supportive space where you can talk openly, feel heard, and begin to make sense of what’s happening.
​
Before becoming a counsellor, I spent many years in the beauty and wellbeing industry, helping people feel comfortable and confident in themselves. That experience taught me how deeply our emotional and physical wellbeing are connected — something I bring into my work today through a gentle, holistic approach to care.
​
I’m qualified to work with people of all ages and particularly passionate about supporting young people and families, helping them navigate life’s challenges with empathy and understanding.
​
Whether you’re seeking guidance for anxiety, self-confidence, relationships, or life transitions, I’ll walk alongside you with compassion, curiosity, and practical support.
What to expect
Starting counselling can feel like a big step — and it’s completely normal to have questions or feel unsure about what to expect. My aim is to make the process as calm and comfortable as possible, so you feel supported right from the start.
​
Firstly, we’ll arrange a free, no-obligation consultation to talk about what’s been going on for you and explore how we might move forward together. It’s simply a chance for us to get to know each other and see if the way I work feels right for you.
​
Online Counselling
Sessions are held via secure video call using Zoom or Google Meet.
​
Why people choose online counselling:
​
-
You can connect from the comfort of your own home.
-
It’s private and accessible — all you need is an internet connection.
-
It can feel less daunting for those who feel anxious about meeting in person.
​​
Telephone Counselling
If you prefer not to use video, sessions can take place over the phone or through a secure app.
Why people choose telephone counselling:
​
-
You can talk freely without being on camera.
-
It’s convenient and flexible — ideal if you’re on the go or simply prefer a call.
-
It can feel more personal for those who find comfort in a familiar voice.
​
Fees: £50 per 50-minute session
​
I’m also pleased to work in partnership with CanCare Purbeck, offering funded sessions for those living in Swanage, Wareham, Corfe Castle, Sandford, Stoborough, Wool, and Bere Regis.
