About Kate
Kate Mollison is a BACP counsellor with 24 years of professional experience in the UK. She has worked across many settings including the NHS and independent practice, and uses a range of therapeutic methods to support people through hard times. She keeps sessions straightforward and practical.
She focuses on building a trusting relationship and then helps people notice patterns of thoughts, feelings and behaviours that are getting in the way.
Background and approach
Sessions often include simple skills such as breathing or mindfulness exercises and clear, usable tools from cognitive approaches. Her work covers a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, grief, addiction and low self-esteem. She also supports people with relationship strain, career pressures, parenting stress and life transitions.
Kate pays attention to how past experiences and attachment patterns influence current coping. Her style is warm and down-to-earth. She aims to be non-judgemental and curious, and she will adapt methods to fit each person rather than using a fixed formula.
Many sessions are collaborative and focused on short-term changes as well as deeper processing when needed. Kate has practiced in employee assistance programmes, the NHS and personal settings. She continues professional development through courses and reading, bringing new ideas into her work.
People meet her for a blend of supportive listening, practical strategies and gentle exploration of difficult memories and behaviours.

Online support
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, offers clear tools and a shared language for tackling unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. It is useful for anxiety, low mood, sleep difficulties and practical problems that benefit from structured work.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to manage stress and strong emotions. These skills are often paired with other approaches to support regulation and coping.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then adapt methods as needed. Clients usually decide collaboratively whether to focus on short-term problem solving or deeper exploration.
Online therapy makes it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. Video calls are close to face-to-face and suit in-depth work. Phone sessions can be helpful when bandwidth is limited or for a quicker check-in. Live chat and text messaging allow shorter, more frequent contact and can suit people who prefer writing or need flexible timing.
