About Kate
Kate Anderson is a counsellor who helps people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure about their next steps. She works with common problems like anxiety, low mood, stress and relationship difficulties. Her approach is calm and straightforward, and she focuses on making therapy practical and relevant to everyday life.
Kate draws on a mix of approaches to suit each person she meets. She pays attention to how earlier relationships shape current patterns, and helps people understand why they respond as they do.
Background and approach
That often leads to small changes that reduce worry and make choices feel clearer. Alongside looking at past experiences, Kate also works on the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviour. She uses techniques from cognitive behavioural approaches and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice reactions and try different responses.
Mindfulness is used in short, simple ways to build self‑compassion and calm. She also explores values, strengths and what gives life meaning. Conversations can cover boundaries, assertiveness, commitment anxieties, codependency and family of origin patterns.
The aim is to help people act in line with what matters to them and feel more steady in relationships. Kate is BACP registered and has five years of practice in the United Kingdom. Sessions are conducted in English and can be arranged to suit different schedules and needs.
If someone wants a thoughtful, down-to-earth space to work through personal or relationship challenges, she offers a gentle, reflective style to support that work.

Online approaches that fit your life
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting swept away by them. It focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small actions that move life in a chosen direction, which can help with anxiety, low mood and feeling stuck.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns with others. This work helps people understand why they find certain situations hard, such as intimacy or trust issues, and supports changes in how they relate to others.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk through goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then adapt methods as the sessions progress. That collaborative process means the plan can change as people learn more about what helps.
Online therapy offers a range of ways to meet, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video lets people use visual cues for richer conversation, phone is useful when bandwidth is limited, live chat can suit short check‑ins and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and different time zones while keeping the focus on practical, helpful progress.
