Hello, I'm Tammy Lewis,
Welcome to Cathartic Counselling
I am a warm and compassionate, qualified therapeutic counsellor based in Liverpool. My approach is to provide a non-judgmental, safe, and empathetic space where you feel truly seen, heard, and understood.
I believe in the power of counselling to support mental and emotional well-being. Through this process, you can gain a deeper understanding of yourself, feel lighter, calmer, and more in control of your life.
The client-counsellor relationship is unique—built on trust, openness, and connection. As you share and explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences, you can gain new insights, break unhelpful patterns, and move forward with confidence.
If you're ready to take that step, I’m here to support you.
Why Counselling?
Life can be overwhelming, and sometimes we need space to process our thoughts and emotions. People come to counselling for many different reasons, some including:
🔹 Anxiety, worry, and overthinking
🔹 Depression, low mood, and emotional struggles
🔹 Self-esteem, self-confidence, and identity issues
🔹 Loneliness, abandonment, and feeling disconnected
🔹 Childhood experiences, past abuse
🔹 Relationship and family difficulties
🔹 Stress, work pressures, and major life changes
Counselling is more than just talking—it’s a therapeutic space where you can feel truly heard, understood, and supported. It’s a chance to explore your thoughts and emotions without judgment, helping you process experiences, break unhelpful patterns, and move forward with clarity.
Every person’s journey is unique. While no one else can fully understand what you’re going through, I can offer a safe, confidential space where you can gain insight, express yourself freely, and develop self-compassion.
Opening up can feel vulnerable, but counselling allows you to strip back the layers, understand your emotions, and take control of your life. It’s about finding your voice, your strength, and your path forward—because the most important relationship you’ll ever have is the one with yourself.

My Approach
I believe that every person is unique, and so is their journey. That’s why I take an integrative approach, meaning I tailor each session to your specific needs. By drawing from different therapeutic methods, I can support you in exploring your thoughts, emotions, and experiences in a way that feels right for you.
Here’s how my approach works:
Person-Centred Therapy – A Safe, Non-Judgmental Space
You are at the heart of the therapy process. This approach focuses on self-exploration, self-acceptance, and personal growth. I provide an empathetic, non-judgmental environment where you feel truly heard, valued, and understood.
Psychodynamic Therapy – Understanding the Past to Shape the Future
Our past experiences often influence how we think, feel, and behave today. Psychodynamic therapy helps uncover unconscious patterns, unresolved emotions, and past experiences that may be affecting your present. By bringing awareness to these patterns, you can gain insight and create lasting change.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) – Challenging Unhelpful Thoughts
CBT is a structured, goal-oriented approach that helps identify and change negative thought patterns. If you struggle with anxiety, low mood, or self-doubt, this method can help you reframe thoughts, manage emotions, and develop healthier coping strategies.
Inner Child Work – Healing from Within
Many of our emotional struggles stem from childhood experiences. Inner Child Work allows us to reconnect with and nurture the parts of ourselves that may feel wounded, unheard, or neglected. By offering compassion to your inner self, we can work towards healing and self-acceptance.
Each session is shaped around your personal needs, helping you gain deeper self-awareness, resilience, and emotional well-being. You don’t have to go through this alone – I’m here to support you.
