About Kata
Kata Soos helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression and life transitions. She also supports those facing family and parenting pressures, addiction concerns, trauma and grief. Her work covers practical issues such as sleep and eating difficulties, anger and impulsivity, and longer-term worries about purpose or midlife change.
Kata uses a straightforward, person-focused style. She aims to create a calm space where people can talk through what is happening to them.
How Kata works
Conversations are practical and grounded, with room for feelings as well as problem-solving. She keeps language plain and avoids jargon so things feel easier to follow. Her approach draws on Client-Centred Therapy to make sure each conversation centres on the person in front of her.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, is used where thinking patterns and day-to-day habits are getting in the way. Together these approaches help with both immediate coping and longer-term change. Kata has four years of experience working with these kinds of concerns and holds NCPS as a credential.
She works with individual adults and accepts clients from outside the United Kingdom. Sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to suit different needs. To begin she asks clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then book a suitable slot.
The process is simple and designed to get people speaking about what matters sooner rather than later.

How her approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, empathy and following the person's concerns. In practice this means the counsellor supports people to speak freely, reflects back what they say and helps them make sense of difficult feelings. It is useful for emotional struggles such as grief, family worries and feelings of emptiness.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses practical exercises and planning to change unhelpful thinking and daily routines, which can help with anxiety, low mood, sleep problems and unhelpful habits.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, and together they will decide which methods to try first. This collaborative process means the plan can change as needs and progress become clearer.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to make therapy easier to fit into busy lives. Video lets people use visual cues and a fuller conversation, phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can suit a short check-in and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between appointments. These options aim to make therapy flexible and accessible for different routines and needs.
