About Kate

Kate Wolsey is a counsellor who uses a person-centred way of working. She places the person at the heart of each session and encourages people to set the pace and choose what they want to talk about. Kate is a registered member of the National Counselling Society, listed as NCPS, and has five years' practical experience supporting people through difficult times.

She often helps with stress, anxiety and depression, and works with relationship and intimacy-related concerns. Grief and bereavement are a particular focus, alongside parenting and family-related issues. Kate also supports people dealing with trauma, anger, eating concerns, ADHD and major life changes, including coping with natural or human-caused disaster.

Kate blends client-centred practice with psychodynamic and existential ideas. In sessions she aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk through feelings and make sense of patterns from their past. Conversations look at current struggles and the life story that feeds them, together with practical ways to cope day to day.

Her style is gentle and exploratory, inviting people to reflect while also building realistic steps forward. She values collaboration and helps people identify small changes that matter. Kate encourages people to bring whatever feels important to them and to work at a tempo that feels manageable.

Sessions are conducted from the United Kingdom and are offered in English. People who live outside the UK can enquire about working together and should confirm session options before booking.

How Kate's approaches work in online therapy

Client-centred work focuses on the individual's experience and aims to follow the person's lead in sessions. This approach helps when someone needs space to talk through feelings, make sense of grief, or clarify relationship and parenting concerns.

Psychodynamic ideas look at recurring patterns and how earlier experiences shape present life. This can help people notice repeated behaviours and begin to try different ways of relating and reacting. Existential therapy highlights questions about meaning, choice and responsibility, which can be useful during major life changes and when coping with loss or disaster.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss your goals and preferences and together you will decide which methods to use. This is a collaborative process and plans can change as needs evolve.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules demand. Many people find it simpler to keep continuity of care while living abroad, but check format details to match your circumstances.
