About Kate
Kate Mollison is a UK-based counsellor with more than 24 years of experience. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). Kate draws on a range of approaches so each person can find what helps them most.
She has worked in many settings, including employee assistance programmes and the NHS, and now in independent practice. That background means she has supported people through anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and long-term illness.
Background and approach
Kate emphasises that every person is different and avoids a one-size-fits-all method. In sessions she aims to build a warm, honest relationship. Person-centred work is used to listen and reflect.
Cognitive behavioural ideas give simple tools and a shared vocabulary for managing thoughts and behaviours. Mindfulness and breathing techniques are offered to help calm the nervous system. Compassion-focused ideas are used to reduce self-criticism and encourage kinder self-talk.
Solution-focused methods support short-term goal setting and practical steps. Kate often helps people untangle repetitive patterns of thought, feeling and action that get in the way of a fuller life. She also works with concerns such as stress, parenting strain, career issues, addictions, relationship difficulties and neurodiversity-related matters.
Sessions are delivered in English from the United Kingdom and shaped around each person’s needs.

How therapeutic approaches work online
Kate commonly uses cognitive behavioural therapy and mindfulness approaches in online work. CBT gives a simple way to map thoughts, feelings and behaviours and to try out practical experiments. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and managing unhelpful thinking patterns. Mindfulness helps people notice their experience and learn breathing or grounding practices that reduce reactivity and support better sleep and self-regulation.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they test methods and adjust the focus so sessions fit the person rather than forcing a single model.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls let people use visual cues and more conversational interaction. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into short breaks. Live chat and messaging suit people who prefer writing, need brief check-ins, or want flexibility across the week. These options make it easier to access regular support while keeping therapy practical and focused.
