about us
Welcome to the kind space
At the kind space, we aim to create a therapy experience that feels safe and genuinely welcoming. We know that seeking therapy can be a vulnerable step. So here at the kind space, you’ll be met with an environment that is kind, compassionate, and hopeful.
A safe therapeutic space
We see therapy as more than just coping—it’s about reconnecting with your values, building confidence, and creating meaningful change. We offer thoughtful, personalised support, with a commitment to supporting you to best meet your needs.

Hi, I'm Cathleen!
Founder of the kind space
Accredited Mental Health Social Worker (AMHSW)

EMDR

​
I use a blended therapy approach, tailoring therapy to meet the unique needs of every client.
​​
I value self-respect, kindness towards others, ongoing growth, equity, and lending a hand to those who need a little extra support sometimes.
​
Outside of the therapy room, I’m a bit of a creative at heart. I love baking, cooking, doing my own nails, and dabbling in interior decorating. Some would also say I get way too excited about Excel spreadsheets and anything to do with organisation!
