About

Katrina Steel is an Integrated Psychotherapist who is masterful at supporting clients to access what is real and using that knowledge to liberate them from the limiting stories of the mind. 

Her vast experience and skillset combine to assist clients to connect to their true selves in the most compassionate and yet dynamic of ways. Katrina engages her clients with focus on cognitive and emotional processes, working with the mind to break down behavioural patterns and mind distortions which generate suffering and hold them back from ease, joy and grace.

She draws together the nature of your suffering to uncover core cognitive beliefs and behavioural patterns that result in your distress and anguish, generating clarity and therefore creating a new way of relating and being in the world. Katrina uses wisdom, vulnerability, courage and realness to raise awareness and connect people to their true selves, resulting in them living and experiencing life at a deeper level.

Her gift is in the relational experience and within this she brings her authenticity and generosity which shines through in the power of her therapeutic process. There is nothing traditional about Katrina, and that translates to exceptional possibilities for living life with guts and grace.

 ‘I had given up on traditional therapy until Katrina. But then there’s nothing much traditional about Kat, and that’s why she’s so effective! Using a combination of therapies she is able to get to the heart of an issue and help you see it in a new way, so you can move on from it. Every time I spoke to Kat I felt better, more motivated, and more hopeful, which was a revelation for me because I hadn’t felt hope for such a long time. And Kat achieved all of this in a much shorter timeframe than any therapist I had seen prior. So if you are really ready to move on from your ‘stuff’, if you are ready to live the life you deserve, then check your ego at the door and speak to Kat because I can’t recommend her highly enough.’

~ Vanessa 

Testimonials 

‘She has this innate ability, this gift, to gently tease your deepest issues out of you, and then quickly assist you to fill those gaps with inspired thoughts, clarity and enthusiasm, and awaken you to a whole new world of being. Katrina is a truly inspired and gifted soul’ ~ Sky

If you’re ready, immerse yourself. Katrina Steel , revealer of love, light and truth. Assisting you to reconnect with what is, through understanding what is not’  ~ Renee

I came to see Katrina around 3 months ago after a relapse. After a very strong recommendation about Kat's no nonsense approach to accessing what is truly holding us back behind all the closed, often very dark doors I decided to go for it. After the very first session Kat was able to help me see and unlock what I had no idea was the very core of my restraints and pain. Something I thought I had looked at with other therapist's before but Kat went to a whole new dimension with compassion, empathy and a very direct line of sight to what lies benith. Through education Kat has helped me understand how to apply the right tools to my life situation and feel the true strength I have within. I am forever grateful for this ~ Grant
