I am a fully qualified and accredited Systemic Family and Couple Psychotherapist (MA) with over 25 years’ clinical experience working therapeutically with individuals, couples and families of all ages, both within the NHS & through my private practice, Oxford Family Therapy.

I support those facing challenges in relationships, such as communication, sex and intimacy, infidelity & trust, parenting & life transitions, or relational trauma, separation or bereavement. I also work with those wishing to develop a deeper sense of loving connection, intimacy & closeness with the important people in their lives.

Keen to embrace gender, sexuality & relationship diversity, I work with couples & families of all kinds. My practice is strengths & resilience orientated, collaborative, and underpinned by the latest evidence-based principles. I am fully insured to provide a worldwide online service.

Alongside my independent practice, as UKCP Media Spokesperson, I am frequently invited to contribute to national & international media, including The Guardian, The Telegraph & The Independent, providing expert opinion on a range of relational & psychosexual issues. 

I am Trustee of the domestic abuse charity Clean Slate & a Guardian with the legal support charity Support Through Court.

Committed to maintaining the highest standard of professional practice, I hold fully accreditation with:

United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP)

Association of Family & Systemic Psychotherapy (AFT)

British Association of Counselling & Psychotherapy (Íø±¬ÃÅ)

International Centre for Excellence in Emotion Focused Therapy (ICEEFT)

I understand how hard it can be to find the right type of therapy — and therapist — for you. To help with this, I’ve included FAQs, further information about systemic psychotherapy, & client reviews, which you can access here: https://www.psychotherapy.org.uk/therapist/Katherine-Cavallo-RqDJSAA3.

Within the NHS, my experience spans community and inpatient mental health contexts. Alongside clinical work, I have been involved in service development, leadership, training, supervision, consultation to allied professionals, and developed graduate and postgraduate training as a guest Specialist Clinical Lecturer.

As an independent psychotherapist, I initially worked with the Oxford Priory Wellbeing Centre before founding the independent systemic psychotherapy service, Oxford Family Therapy. In 2020, Oxford Family Therapy extended its services to include online options enabling clients to connect and access therapy remotely across the UK and globally.

I am an active member of the Association of Family Therapy Couple Therapy Forum and currently undertaking advanced postgraduate training in psychosexual psychotherapy accredited by COSRT, the UK's professional body for clinical sexology.
