Kate has quite literally given me back my future which, when we first began our telephone sessions, I just couldn't face. I was totally unable to accept the loss of my beloved husband so soon after his cancer diagnosis and felt that my heart really was broken. Kate helped me to realise that the unreality, regret, guilt and every other emotion I was experiencing were all perfectly normal and throughout our twelve 'meetings' her caring support and understanding has brought me to a much better place. I can now accept the loss and look forward most of the time rather than back, and I can relive and enjoy memories that until now have been too painful to let myself think about. Bless you Kate, you are a true Angel. I really miss our weekly get-togethers but am sure that many other grieving people will benefit from your care and support. Thank you so much..

Suggested improvements
Nothing could have been better other than the opportunity to hold these sessions together face to face but I totally appreciate that this was just not possible at this terrible time.
