About Mindsmith Wellness
My name is Kathryn Millist-Spendlove, Registered Counsellor and Psychosexual Therapist
I believe that people are more than just a diagnosis, a collection of symptoms, or a particular life stage or situation. Challenging experiences impact all elements of a person, so all elements also need to be addressed as part of healing and growing through those experiences. It is my profound privilege to walk alongside individuals and couples facing challenges, and supporting them in developing hope, experiencing healing, and growing connection.
Testimonials
"Prior to counselling, I was dealing with unresolved trauma and anxiety. After getting in touch with Mindsmith Wellness, I knew I found the right counsellor to help work through my trauma. I was always given a safe space to communicate my emotions both positive and negative. I was provided incredible resources and coping strategies to apply to my everyday living to help manage my triggers and various emotional states. It has made such a difference and I’m in a much more positive headspace. It has improved my mental well-being and my relationships around me. I am a much more resilient person because of my choice to embark on a difficult yet rewarding journey."

“You [Kathryn] are so easy to talk to open and honestly without me feeling judged and I think the way you worked with me was explanatory and gave me reason and depth as to why I think and feel certain things and ways.”

What do we mean by trauma-informed?
"Trauma-informed" is a bit of a buzz word that means different things to different services and organisations. For us, it is both philosophy and practice.
