About Catherine
Catherine Wilton welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety or low mood. She explains things simply and offers steady, practical help so conversations feel manageable. Catherine uses an open, non-judgemental style that aims to make starting therapy less daunting for a worried parent or someone under pressure.
Catherine trained and works in the United Kingdom and holds BACP registration, with six years of professional experience across independent practice, charities and NHS roles.
Background and approach
That mix gives her exposure to a range of concerns from everyday stress to more persistent anxiety and depression. She supports people who are coping with addictions, grief and loss, and difficulties with self-esteem and motivation. Catherine also helps with body image worries, communication problems, obsessions and compulsions, panic attacks and phobias.
Her additional focus areas include relationship issues such as infidelity and non-monogamous arrangements, and life transitions like pregnancy and childbirth. Catherine draws on mindfulness techniques to help people notice thoughts and feelings without being overwhelmed by them. She also uses motivational interviewing to explore what matters most and to strengthen a person’s own reasons for making change.
Sessions are practical and conversational rather than full of technical language. People meet Catherine for video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. She aims to collaborate on goals and to adjust pace and focus to what each person needs.
Beginning therapy is framed as taking a single brave step, and Catherine emphasises small, steady progress.

Online support
Motivational Interviewing focuses on what matters to the person and on strengthening their own reasons for change. In remote sessions this often looks like curious, non-judgemental conversation that highlights values and small steps forward, which can help with addictions, motivation and behaviour change.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that suit their needs, and adapt the plan as they learn what helps. This is a collaborative process rather than a one-size-fits-all prescription.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let visual cues guide the conversation. Phone sessions work well when connection speed is an issue or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging can fit into busy schedules and make it easier to keep momentum between sessions. These options help people fit therapy around family life, work and everyday commitments.
