About Kate
She trained with a BA in integrative counselling and has six years of professional experience. Integrative counselling means she draws on different counselling ideas and fits them to a person’s needs rather than using a single method. Sessions usually focus on understanding how past events and systems have shaped current reactions and choices.
Kate works in a relational way, putting the therapeutic relationship at the centre of the work. She uses grounding and relaxation techniques alongside conversational exploration. For trauma-related concerns she brings experience with trauma-informed practices and grief-focused work.
People can expect practical steps as well as reflective conversation. Kate often helps clients notice patterns that feel stuck and then try small changes to test new ways of responding. She emphasises self-care and building skills to manage strong emotions.
Her background includes bereavement support, residential care for older people, and group work with parents and young people in nature settings. She also has training in areas such as complex PTSD, transactional analysis, and work with sexual abuse and domestic violence. This range informs a flexible, compassionate approach tailored to each person’s situation.
How Internal Family Systems and Integrative Work Help Online
Internal Family Systems (IFS) views a person as made of different parts that hold feelings and beliefs. Working with these parts can help with issues like shame, jealousy, and patterns that feel stuck by identifying protective parts and calming them.Integrative counselling combines different counselling ideas to suit each client. That might mean using grounding exercises one week and reflective conversation the next, depending on what the client needs most to cope with anxiety, trauma, grief or life changes.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods to try first, adapting as goals and preferences become clearer. That decision is reviewed together as progress is made.
Confirm the specific session formats before booking, since the original biography does not list them. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when people need them. It can also let someone use video or audio options depending on how they prefer to engage. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises and grounding techniques to work well in remote sessions.
