About Kate
Kate Jarvis is a counsellor who focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety and relationship worries. She draws on four years of professional experience in the United Kingdom and works from the belief that each person knows their own story best. Her aim is to support and empower people as they take steps towards change.
She uses a client-centred approach that keeps the person’s needs at the centre of each session.
Background and approach
That means Kate listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps clients spot their own strengths. Conversations are practical and grounded, and she encourages small steps that build confidence over time. Kate has helped people with grief and loss, low self-esteem, motivation and coping with life changes.
She also supports those dealing with sleeping problems, anger, career stress and addictions. Her work includes attention to attachment and abandonment issues, codependency and communication problems. Her experience extends to complex situations such as trauma and abuse, chronic pain and long-term illness, divorce and separation, and domestic violence.
Kate also offers support around LGBT concerns and caregiving stress. She tailors conversations to what each person brings, rather than following a fixed plan. Sessions are available across the UK and to international clients in English.
Kate holds an NCPS credential and combines a respectful listening style with practical suggestions. If someone wants help sorting out where to start, she aims to make the first steps clear and manageable.
How client-centred therapy works online
Client-centred therapy focuses on the person’s own experience and perspective. The therapist offers attentive listening, gentle reflection and space to make sense of difficult feelings. This approach often helps with anxiety, relationship struggles, low self-esteem and grief by encouraging people to build on their own strengths.In practice, sessions are collaborative. The therapist and client decide together which ways of working feel most helpful. That may mean focusing on steady emotional support at first, then trying practical exercises later. The aim is to match approaches to each person’s goals and preferences rather than following a fixed plan.
Online therapy here is available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video is useful for a fuller conversational feel, while phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or messaging suits brief check-ins, step-by-step problem solving and people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and location while keeping the focus on progress and practical next steps.
