About Kate
Kate Mollison is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 24 years of experience. She is registered with the BACP, and has worked across different settings including employee assistance programmes, the NHS, and independent practice. She supports people facing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and other life stresses with a thoughtful, person-focused style.
Her work avoids one-size-fits-all answers. She listens to each person’s story and looks for the patterns of thoughts, feelings and behaviours that get in the way.
How Kate works
Sessions combine practical tools and gentle exploration so people can make changes that fit their life. Kate uses approaches such as Client-Centred Therapy to build a trusting relationship, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to map thoughts and behaviours, and Mindfulness to develop calm and self-regulation. She also draws on Solution-Focused and Trauma-Focused methods when those are helpful.
She has supported people with a wide range of concerns including stress, addictions, bipolar disorder, parenting strain, eating and sleeping problems, ADHD, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and work-related compassion fatigue. Additional focus areas include attachment and abandonment issues, caring-related stress, body image and cancer-related adjustment. Sessions are offered in English and are delivered online by video, phone, live chat or text messaging.
Fees vary by location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, select the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on building a respectful, non-judgemental relationship so people feel heard and accepted; it helps when someone needs space to talk and to make sense of their experiences. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, gives clear tools to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, which can be useful for anxiety, low mood and sleep or eating difficulties. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices that help with stress regulation and managing strong emotions.Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The counsellor will talk with the client about their goals and preferences and suggest ways forward. Plans can change as work progresses and different methods can be combined to suit what is proving most helpful.
Online sessions by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video allows face-to-face conversation, phone calls need less bandwidth and can be a shorter check-in, while chat or messaging works well for people who prefer writing or need flexible timing. These options improve access and make it simpler to keep continuity of care without long travel times.
