About Catherine
Catherine Bezzant is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with nine years of clinical experience. She works with people facing addictions, trauma, grief and loss, and common difficulties such as anxiety and depression. Catherine aims to offer respectful, sensitive and compassionate support to anyone who reaches out.
Her sessions are shaped around each person's needs rather than a fixed script. She adapts conversation and planning to the individual, helping people break problems into manageable steps.
Background and approach
Catherine encourages practical coping skills alongside exploring emotional patterns that keep someone stuck. She draws on attachment-based ideas to understand close relationships and how early bonds can affect present-day trust and security. Psychodynamic perspectives help uncover repeating life patterns and unhelpful beliefs that influence mood and behaviour.
Mindfulness techniques are used to build calm, reduce reactivity and improve moment-to-moment coping. Catherine also works from a client-centred stance, meaning she follows the client's concerns and pace during sessions. This approach aims to create space for people to speak freely and feel heard while they make decisions about change.
People approaching her often bring complex issues such as compulsive behaviours, body image concerns, chronic illness stress or caregiving strain. Catherine is comfortable addressing both immediate practical needs and deeper emotional themes over time. She accepts international clients and holds a British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy credential (BACP).

Online support
Client-centred counselling focuses on following the person's priorities and creating space to be heard. This approach suits online formats because the counsellor listens, reflects and follows what matters to the individual, whether the session is a longer video call or a shorter text check-in.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Catherine will discuss different ways of working and agree a plan based on a person's needs, goals and preferences. That collaboration can continue as therapy progresses and priorities shift.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues and more in-depth conversation, phone sessions require less bandwidth and can fit into a work break, while live chat or text-based messaging can support brief check-ins or ongoing tracking of mood. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around daily life and commitments.
