Name – Kate Atkin

Job Title – Clinician / Psychotherapeutic Counsellor / Psychotherapist
 
What I do at S2BH – I am a therapist at the Homeless Hub in Bridlington and offer individualised counselling and psychotherapy to people experiencing homelessness and rough sleeping. I also work on the Hull City Council contract and offer time limited counselling to employers of Hull City Council.
 
What I love about my job – I absolutely love being a therapist and always feel privileged to be able to listen to people’s stories and share their therapeutic journeys. I’ve always been curious about people – how they think, feel and behave; I therefore feel honoured to have the opportunity to help people understand themselves better so that they can make positive changes in their lives.
 
Not many people know that I…….love going to the theatre and all things dance, drama and performing arts … I love a good boogie and a good old sing-along!! Claim to fame – when I was about 10, I danced in the Nutcracker Ballet with the Scottish ballet – I was a mouse!
