About Kate
Kate Wilson is a counsellor with the NCPS and has ten years of clinical experience in the United Kingdom. She works with concerns such as anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression, addictions and anger. She also supports people facing life changes and career pressures.
Her background is in psychology, with a BA (Hons) from the University of Liverpool and an MSc in Social Psychology from the London School of Economics. Before training as a psychotherapist she worked as a research psychologist and later trained to provide hypnotherapy in private practice. She also supervises other therapists.
In sessions she draws on several approaches to match the moment and the person. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts while choosing actions that matter. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is used for practical thinking and behaviour changes. Client-Centred methods keep the conversation focused on the clients experience.
She has particular experience with anxiety and bereavement. Kate has worked with Anxiety UK as an affiliate and with Cruse as a bereavement support worker and supervisor. Confidence and self-esteem work was the focus of her masters dissertation and continues to be an area she addresses regularly.
Her practical style mixes talking therapies and hypnotherapy where appropriate. Sessions aim to be straightforward and focused, helping people learn ways to calm intense emotions, manage frustration, and rebuild steadier patterns day to day.

How Kate uses different approaches online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting led by them. It focuses on clarifying values and taking small, workable steps toward what matters, which can help with ongoing anger and anxiety.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression and stress-related anger.
Client-Centred Therapy emphasises the persons own experience and pacing. It supports people to talk through problems and find their own solutions, often alongside other techniques.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit their goals, preferences and what feels manageable. That choice can change over time as needs shift.
Confirm the session formats directly before booking, as the biography does not list specific online options. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also offers flexibility for quieter, camera-free conversations or longer video sessions depending on what the client prefers and what is offered.
