I really enjoyed working with Kate

I did enjoy working with Kate on my issues. She was very patient with me and asked the right probing question to get to the heart of what my issues were. Her style is very structured but also in a way that is clear that you will need to the work to reach your break through. I am sure you will find working with her very helpful.

My amazing experience!

My experience with The PGDC has been nothing short of amazing. I started therapy in August of 2020 with a host of issues I was currently facing, and many from my past that I had not dealt with. From the outset, I was made to feel very comfortable to speak with Kate about all that I had gone through and what I was currently facing. I was given resources, tips and homework which pushed me to take accountability for my own life and the choices I was making. We set out goals that I wanted to achieve, and she never stopped letting e know how much progress I was making (even if I didn't see it myself!).
My overall experience was amazing and I would (and have) recommended Kate to friends.

Guest speaker at a Black members meeting

We were lucky enough to have Kate Megase from PGDC speak at a recent trade union Black members meeting and we could not have been more pleased.
Before the meeting Kate and I spoke so that I could explain what our group was interested in and what we wanted her to talk about. On the evening of the meeting Kate covered all of the key topics and more. Her pacing was perfect and she spent plenty of time answering the questions that the group had.

The talk was engaging, interesting and has inspired us to campaign on mental health issues in the work place.

Kate covered trauma and its impact on individuals and the stigma around mental health that can prevent individuals seeking help.

We are already planning future events and we hope to work with the PGDC again.

Professional service

Sergio is very knowledgeable and personable and I really enjoyed my sessions. Would highly recommend! have spent most of my adult life the same size and shape and making the same mistakes with diets. Only once I joined Sergio Personal Trainer my life and mental health changed , he proved me that everything is possible as long as you have the right mindset to reach your goals. Simple and effective! You cannot slip through the cracks with Sergio - he will hold you accountable

As a trainee counsellor I signed up to extra supervision sessions with Kate. Working with clients for a first time was extremely daunting but I felt both supported and guided by her. Kate offered a wealth of knowledge and expertise that she happily shared. In addition the emotional and practical support she gave, helped me work with clients professionally and gave me more confidence to grow into this new career that I now love.

Kate Megase was very professional

Kate Megase is very professional and knows what she does , I didn’t know what was preventing me from getting the relationships I wanted at work, and romantically, she was able to diagnose what I was having issues with and we did some work for a while , I was a completely different person after I completed my sessions , I was more secure and able to maintain relationships in a better way that I could never do before, thanks Kate for all your help and advise A.

Definitely recommend !

A wonderful therapist who created a very safe space for me to express my feelings and unpick the root causes of certain habits I have become accustomed to. It was nice to have guidance on the road to self discovery. I was glad to receive tools and resources help me gain a better understanding of myself and others around me. Professional at all times, 100% recommend.

My coaching sessions at the PGDC

My coaching sessions at the PGDC, enabled me to overcome self-limiting beliefs and played a big role in my career development. Thanks to Katie's I was offered a promotion in a leadership position. Despite, various unsuccessful interviews my coach session allowed to gain a new perspective through each 'hurdle' encouraging me to own my growth and take proactive steps to establish a positive outcome.

I can’t say enough how much my sessions…

I can’t say enough how much my sessions with Kate Megase have helped me. I was going through a very tough time, the rug had been pulled out from under me and I needed to get back to functioning to support my daughters and my mother with their mental health, as well as get back to work.
These sessions taught me that though the extent my feelings were justified, I could learn to understand them, change them and feel in control moving forward. That wobbly feeling is hardly there now and I have a strong sense of identity. Thank you so, so much!
