About Kate

Kate Wilson is a counsellor who helps people who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, panic and stress. She supports those coping with grief, depression and major life changes. She also helps people manage relationship strain, sleep problems, parenting stress and difficulties linked to ADHD and addiction.

She draws on six years of practice in the United Kingdom and works in a person-centred way. That means conversations are guided by each person’s priorities, and ideas come from what matters to them. Kate blends this with practical methods from cognitive behavioural therapy and skills from dialectical behaviour therapy to teach calming and coping techniques.

Kate pays attention to how earlier relationships shape current behaviour. Attachment concerns, abandonment and codependency are areas she often addresses. She uses that understanding to help people spot patterns and try different ways of relating and coping in day-to-day life.

Sessions focus on practical tools you can use outside the room. That might include grounding when panic starts, breathing and attention strategies, or small experiments to reduce avoidance. She aims to build plans that fit into busy family and work routines.

Her approach is respectful and compassionate, and she works alongside clients to set goals. If you want a calmer day-to-day experience and clearer ways to manage panic or anxiety, Kate supports people through steady, practical steps.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Kate uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice thoughts and feelings without being driven by them, and to clarify what matters so they can act in line with their values. This can help when panic or avoidance get in the way of daily life. She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape reactions now, which can be useful when worry or fear links to relationship patterns.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Kate will work with each person to pick methods that match their goals, pace and comfort level. Together they try practical strategies, review what helps, and adjust the plan as needed.

The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm the current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around family and work, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when life is busy. Some methods lend themselves to exercises done between sessions, which can be especially helpful when practising coping skills for panic and anxiety.
