ABOUT kate Hanlon
Trauma-informed Counsellor and couples therapy in berlin
From international human rights law to trauma-informed somatic counselling, my career has been dedicated to creating safe spaces for human dignity and healing.
After nearly 2 decades working in human rights and anti-corruption law in conflict and post-conflict environments, I witnessed the dramatic and far-reaching impact of trauma. Having worked at the macro level, I became interested in healing modalities for the individual experience.
Specialising in attachment and trauma, my approach is rooted in empathy, kindness, and client-led insight. This is informed by academic and professional experience in Counselling, Compassionate Inquiry, and embodied modalities to find truth and safety within. I subscribe to a holistic approach, having an extensive yoga and meditation background.
Coming from outside the psychotherapy field, my services are non-clinical and do not include diagnosis or treatment of psychological conditions.
Following my initiation into parenthood, I went into perinatal yoga and perinatal mental health. This lead me to train as a Certified Infant Massage Instructor (CIMI®) offering calm and grounded environments for families.
I forever have a cup of coffee in my hand (and it’s not my biggest vice).
