About Kathryn

Kathryn (Kate) Bishop is a counsellor who brings six years of professional experience to her practice in the United Kingdom. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, and depression. Kate focuses on meeting each person with sensitivity, respect and compassion so they can talk through difficult experiences and feel heard.

Her background includes supporting people with relationship and family concerns, addiction and intimacy-related issues, and struggles with self-esteem and body image.

Background and approach

She also helps clients who are coping with long-term health problems, caregiver stress, or life transitions such as ageing and bereavement. Kate is experienced with issues that overlap neurodiversity and attachment, including autism and attachment difficulties. Kate uses a client-centred approach that keeps the person’s perspective at the heart of sessions.

She adapts sessions to the individual rather than following a fixed script. Conversations focus on what matters most to the person and on practical next steps they can try between sessions. Sessions are offered in English and delivered online by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.

She also works with concerns such as eating and sleeping difficulties, ADHD-related challenges, anger, career questions, and compassion fatigue. Kate is listed with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and draws on six years of direct practice to inform her work.

People who choose her can expect a calm, respectful space to explore change and make plans that suit their life.

Ways of working Kathryn names

Client-Centred Therapy

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Client-centred support offered online

Client-centred Therapy places the person at the heart of the session. The counsellor listens closely, reflects what is said, and helps the person set the pace. This approach suits worries such as anxiety, grief, relationship and identity concerns, and reactions to trauma because it starts from the individual’s priorities and values.

The therapist will work collaboratively to choose how to proceed. Finding the right approach is part of the work and may change over time. Together they will consider goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then adjust the focus as progress is made.

Online sessions are available by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues and more conversational depth. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging suit those who prefer not to use voice or who want to write between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit counselling into a busy life and to access support from different locations.
