About Katie
Katie Lane offers a warm, person-focused approach to therapy. She draws on client-centred work to make conversations feel understood and non-judgemental. Her style aims to help people speak openly about identity, relationships and intimacy.
Katie uses straightforward methods to support confidence, reduce stress, and manage anxiety. She has five years of professional experience and has worked in educational mental health and wellbeing settings as well as in independent practice. That background means she is used to helping people facing life changes, career questions and caregiving strain.
How Katie works
She also supports people dealing with trauma, depression, addiction and sleep problems. Katie combines client-centred listening with practical tools from cognitive behavioural therapy and goal-focused ideas from solution-focused work. She can also draw on psychodynamic thinking to look at patterns that repeat over time.
Sessions are tailored to what each person needs and prefers. Her additional focus areas include concerns such as body image, BDSM and kink issues, gender dysphoria, domestic violence, infidelity and problems around commitment and communication. Katie also works with people affected by chronic illness, hoarding, and the stresses linked to military or veteran backgrounds.
Sessions are offered in English and take place online by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Katie asks people to begin by using the Start Therapy button, completing a short questionnaire, and arranging sessions to suit their schedule.

How Katie blends therapy approaches online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, acceptance and understanding. In practice this means the therapist follows the person's lead, reflects what they say, and helps them find their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions interact and uses specific exercises to change unhelpful patterns and ease symptoms like anxiety or low mood.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Katie will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and then try methods together. This collaborative process allows small adjustments so the plan fits what a person needs and how they prefer to communicate.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging, giving flexibility for different days and routines. Video is useful for a full face-to-face feel, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits quick check-ins and text messaging supports brief updates between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring duties or travel without losing continuity of care.
