How Katharine works
Katharine helps with stress and anxiety, low self-esteem and depression. She also supports people coping with grief and life changes. Other areas she pays attention to include guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, life purpose, and social anxiety or phobia.
She often meets people from creative arts backgrounds and understands the pressures that come with that work. In sessions she listens for the personal meaning behind feelings and helps people find practical steps to cope day to day. Conversations are guided by the client's priorities.
Katharine aims to help people notice patterns, name their needs and try out different ways of responding to stress. The focus is on practical progress and greater resilience over time.

How Katharine’s Approach Works Online
Client-Centred Therapy places the client’s experience at the heart of sessions. The therapist listens without judgement and mirrors what they hear so people feel understood. This method suits those dealing with anxiety, grief, low self-esteem and life changes because it builds emotional awareness and personal agency.Finding the right approach is a shared process. Katharine will talk about what matters to the client and work together to choose ways of working that fit their goals and preferences. That collaboration helps shape whether sessions are shorter practical check-ins or longer reflective conversations.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video lets people use visual cues and a fuller conversation. Phone sessions can be helpful when bandwidth is limited or an audio-only check-in is preferred. Live chat and messaging suit shorter updates or moments when a written exchange feels easier to manage. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, caring responsibilities or travel.
