WELCOMES YOU
Blue dragonflies are often seen as symbols of hope, emotional healing, transformation and change. That's how I see the counselling process a safe space to heal, grow and change for the better.
About Me
Caterina McNulty
Welcome to blue dragonfly counselling!
I’m Caterina, a down to earth counsellor originally from the UK, now embracing the sunny lifestyle in Perth. With over 15 years of counselling experience and over 25 years in the mental health field, I truly enjoy the diverse nature of my work.
My path into psychology and counselling was inspired by my own challenging childhood, and I am deeply committed to helping others on their journeys.
It’s a privilege to accompany you as we navigate the challenges of life.
Areas and people I have worked a lot with are:
Anxiety and depression, Trauma and abuse, Addiction, Domestic Violence, Young people, CPTSD, PTSD and ADHD.
I have lived experience of trauma and mental health and I was diagnosed last year with ADHD. I am super passionate about the work I do and I look forward to hopefully working with you soon.
All ages welcome, all genders welcome, LGBTQIA+ friendly

Why Counselling Matters
Counselling is more than just a conversation — it’s a meaningful process of self-discovery, healing, and building resilience. It offers a safe, supportive space to explore your thoughts and emotions without judgement. Whether you’re facing anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, or navigating major life transitions, working with a professional can provide clarity, coping strategies, and a renewed sense of direction. With the right support, positive change is possible.
The Power Of Listening And Connections
We think we listen, but very rarely do we listen with real understanding and true empathy. Yet this special kind of listening is one of the most powerful forces for change.”
(Carl Rogers, Psychologist, 1902–1987)
"Recovery can only happen within the context of relationships; it cannot occur in isolation."
(Judith Herman, Psychiatrist)
Together, these truths remind us that genuine change and healing are built on empathy, connection, and trust.
Caterina is such a kind and intelligent person and counsellor. She has an absolute wealth of knowledge and experience to share.
Her telehealth services have been great as we never would have met otherwise.
Her trauma informed approach has been and will continue to be invaluable to me.
Testimonials
Her guidance, understanding, and encouragement have made a real difference in my journey, and I’m very grateful for her support. She doesn’t just listen — she really understands and offers thoughtful insights that have given me a new perspective I can actually use in my day-to-day life. Each session leaves me feeling lighter, more hopeful, and more equipped to handle whatever comes next. You have touched the heart and life of many like myself. Thank you Caterina, you are an incredible human.
I always felt heard and comfortable with Caterina, Her own life experiences really helped with relatability and I believe helps her overall as a counsellor and human being. I have seen many many counsellors and psychologists over the years and Caterina is easily one of my favourites.
