About Kate

Kate Wolsey is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom. She holds NCPS accreditation from the National Counselling Society and brings five years of practice experience to her work. Kate aims to make sessions calm and straightforward for people under pressure.

Background and approach

She also draws on psychodynamic and existential ideas to understand life patterns and personal meaning. Kate helps with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, grief and relationship problems. She also supports people dealing with parenting strain, career worries, anger, eating issues and ADHD related challenges.

Phobias are included among the areas she lists. In practice she offers time to talk and to reflect on how past experiences affect present choices. Sessions look at patterns such as attachment, abandonment fears, and avoidant tendencies to find practical ways forward.

She can help people manage change after separation, loss, or other major events. Her style is warm and non-judgemental. People can expect straightforward conversation, gentle exploration of feelings, and collaborative planning.

Kate welcomes international clients and works online using several session formats.

How Kate's approaches work online

Kate uses a client-centred approach that keeps the person’s needs and goals at the centre of every session. This way of working prioritises listening, respect and pacing so clients set the topics and speed of progress. Psychodynamic work looks at recurring patterns and past experiences that shape current feelings and relationships; it can help with long-standing patterns such as attachment or avoidance. Existential ideas invite people to consider meaning, choice and responsibility when coping with life changes or loss.

Finding the most helpful approach is part of the work. Kate will discuss what feels most useful and adapt methods as sessions progress. She aims to decide collaboratively, matching style and tools to each person's goals and preferences rather than imposing a single method.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let for face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a short break, live chat allows fast check-ins and shorter exchanges, and text-based messaging suits those who prefer writing or need to reflect between messages. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family or other commitments while keeping the same therapeutic aims.
