About Kate
Kate Wilson uses a practical, people-focused approach to help with stress, anxiety, grief and life changes. She combines talking therapies and hypnotherapy options to support confidence, mood and coping skills. With ten years' experience she offers straightforward help in a warm and open manner.
Kate holds a BA (Hons) in Psychology from the University of Liverpool and an MSc in Social Psychology from the London School of Economics. She previously worked as a research psychologist and now practises as a psychotherapist and counsellor.
Background and approach
She also offers hypnotherapy privately and provides clinical supervision to other therapists. Her work often addresses anxiety, bereavement and low self-esteem, and she has been involved with Anxiety UK and Cruse in supporting and supervising bereavement work. She also helps people manage addictions, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, eating and sleeping difficulties, parenting strain, career problems and compassion fatigue.
Kate uses a pluralistic approach, drawing on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), hypnotherapy and mindfulness. She adapts methods to fit what a person needs in the moment, mixing practical coping strategies with reflective conversation. Sessions focus on clear goals and manageable steps.
Kate aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk through painful feelings, build confidence and work towards practical change. She works from the United Kingdom and holds the NCPS credential.

Online support
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss what the person hopes to achieve and try different techniques to see what helps. This is a collaborative process and the chosen methods can change as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video is useful for deeper conversations and visual connection, phone sessions can fit a short break at work or when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging can be used for brief check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options help people fit therapy around home life, work and other commitments.
