About Katie
Katie Bifulco draws on a person-centred approach to help people when life feels overwhelming. She aims to listen without judgement and to make it easier to talk about difficult feelings. Katie is named as a BACP member, and she brings five years of practice experience to each session.
She focuses on common concerns such as stress, anxiety and depression, and also supports people coping with trauma, grief and major life changes.
Background and approach
Practical struggles like parenting stress, career pressures, chronic illness and caregiving strain are also part of her work. Katie offers support around relationship difficulties, communication problems and issues linked to identity and self-esteem. Her approach is collaborative and paced to the individual.
Sessions are guided by what the person brings, with attention to improving day-to-day coping and clearer decision making. Katie uses elements from different methods to suit the goals people bring to therapy, including skills for managing intense feelings and short-term goal-focused work.
She has experience supporting people who are autistic or have attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, and she also works with those affected by reproductive loss, menopause challenges and bereavement. Katie has spent time helping people navigate transitions such as redundancy, retirement and illness. People usually begin by describing what feels most urgent and then set small, achievable steps.
Conversations are plain and direct, with an emphasis on finding ways to reduce distress and increase practical choices. Katie aims to help people leave sessions with something they can try between meetings.

Online support
Dialectical behaviour therapy, often called DBT, teaches practical skills for managing strong emotions and improving relationships. It can be useful for people who need tools to cope with intense stress, anger or patterns that keep repeating.
Finding the right way of working is part of the process and is decided together. The therapist will discuss goals, try approaches that fit those goals, and adjust as needed so sessions feel useful and relevant.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat gives a quicker written check-in, and text-based messaging suits short updates or reflection between sessions. These options help people fit therapy around work, family or health needs and make it easier to maintain continuity of care.
