Welcome

Starting therapy can feel daunting, especially if you’ve felt misunderstood or unsure where you fit. You don’t need to have it all figured out to begin. Catharsis Therapy offers a calm, affirming space for adults and teens to explore what feels heavy at your own pace, without pressure to mask or explain yourself. When you’re ready, support is here.

Why choose Catharsis Therapy

People often come to therapy to explore:

  • Anxiety, stress, and burnout

  • Low mood and loss of motivation

  • Neurodiversity and masking

  • Identity, gender, and sexuality

  • Relationship challenges

  • Trauma and difficult experiences

  • Self-criticism and low self-esteem

  • Feeling “different” or out of place

My work is LGBTQIA+ affirming and neurodiversity-informed. Together, we focus on building understanding, self-compassion, and practical ways of coping that fit your life.

Rebecca Kilroy

Founder & Psychotherapist

Catharsis Therapy is a psychotherapy practice founded and led by Rebecca Kilroy, offering affirming, person-centred support for adults and teens who feel different, misunderstood, or worn down from trying to fit into systems not designed for them.

My work centres on authenticity, collaboration, and respect for neurodiversity, identity, and lived experience — with no expectation to mask or explain who you are.

I am an accredited member of the Association of Professional Counsellors and Psychotherapists and hold an MA in Counselling and Psychotherapy in Integrative Modalities. I also hold a Diploma in Adolescent Psychotherapy and a Diploma in Gender, Sexuality, and Relationship Diversity.

In addition, I have a BSc in Psychiatric Nursing and have been a registered psychiatric nurse since 2012. I also completed a Postgraduate Diploma in Sexual Health and Wellbeing.

As an integrative therapist, I draw on a range of approaches to support each client’s individual needs, with particular emphasis on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Person-Centred Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). My aim is always to offer therapy that is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in your lived experience.
