About Kathryn
Her approach is calm and person-focused. Sessions start by listening to what matters most to the individual. From there she works with each person to decide practical steps and ways of coping that fit their life.
Kate has supported people through loss, abuse, and difficult life changes. She also helps with issues such as addictions, sleep and eating concerns, low self-esteem and career stress. Her practice includes work around attachment, autism and Asperger syndrome, caregiver strain, and long-term health conditions.
Client-Centred Therapy is central to her way of working. That means she keeps the conversation centred on the person and their experience rather than imposing a fixed programme. People can expect a respectful, patient dialogue that follows their pace.
Kate uses her BACP credential in her practice and brings six years of experience to conversations about coping, boundaries and making changes. She aims to support people who are ready to take practical steps towards better day-to-day wellbeing.

Step 3
Client-Centred approaches and online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy places the person's experience at the heart of the work. A therapist listens attentively, reflects what they hear, and gently helps the person make sense of their feelings. This approach is useful for issues like anxiety, low self-esteem, grief and relationship struggles because it creates space to be heard.The emphasis is on collaboration. The therapist will work with each person to figure out which approaches and practical steps feel most helpful. That process includes talking about goals, trying ideas together and adjusting the plan as needs change.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, such as arranging a check-in during a work break or avoiding travel time. It may also let people choose a quieter setting for talking or select a shorter format for brief check-ins. The original biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm available session types before booking. Registered or accredited professionals often use online work to maintain continuity of care and to help people practise coping skills between sessions.
