About Kathryn
Kathryn Partt is a counsellor who uses an integrative approach to support people facing grief, trauma and overwhelming anxiety. She holds BACP registration and brings five years of experience to sessions. Kathryn aims to make the first contact less daunting and to help people take the next step toward feeling steadier.
In practice she blends methods so therapy suits the person rather than fitting the person to a model. Sessions focus on practical coping skills alongside exploring meanings and attachment patterns.
Background and approach
That mix can help with recurring anxiety, sleep problems, relationship pain and the ongoing strain of caregiving. Kathryn often works with people dealing with loss, trauma and major life changes. She listens for how past hurts influence current reactions and helps people build clearer ways to manage strong emotions.
Conversations aim to be straightforward and non-judgemental, so people can talk about difficult memories without feeling rushed. Her background includes work in settings where trauma, bereavement and stress are common, and she uses that experience to shape goals and short-term plans. Sessions may include talking, practical exercises and reflection on relationship patterns.
The focus is on what helps day to day and what moves a person toward steadier functioning. People who contact Kathryn usually do so to find calmer ways to cope, to recover after loss, or to understand recurring emotional patterns. She supports clients as they set clear goals and build new routines that fit their lives.
Therapeutic approaches for online grief and anxiety support
Kathryn integrates Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) in online work. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape present reactions and helps people notice patterns in relationships that keep them stuck. Client-Centred Therapy gives space for the person to lead conversations while the counsellor reflects and listens without judgement. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and practising different behaviours to reduce anxiety and improve sleep.Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. Kathryn will discuss goals and preferences and then try methods that feel most helpful. The plan can change over time as needs shift and progress is reviewed together.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, which offers flexibility for different situations. Video calls work well for deeper conversations and visual connection. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat or messaging suit short check-ins, reflective journaling between sessions or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life while trying approaches that help with grief, trauma and anxiety.
