About Katie
Katie Bifulco is a counsellor and an Accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has five years of practice in private work. She helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, grief and life transitions, and she also supports those dealing with anger and relationship strain.
Katie uses a person-centred approach that puts the client's experience first. Sessions focus on listening, exploring what matters to the person, and working out practical next steps. She also draws on dialectical behaviour therapy techniques to help with emotional regulation and self-management.
Her background includes working with people affected by loss, pregnancy-related issues, and parenting concerns. She has experience supporting people with ADHD and those on the autistic spectrum. Katie has also worked with clients diagnosed with borderline personality features and incorporates skills-based strategies in those cases.
Katie describes sessions as an opportunity to talk through what feels stuck and to try different ways of coping. She also offers short-term, solution-focused work when people want to tackle a specific problem or decision. This can include identifying small changes to reduce tension or improve communication at work or at home.
Clients who want help with career changes, compassion fatigue, chronic health challenges or ageing concerns can also bring those issues to sessions. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first appointment through the site.
How her approaches translate to online counselling
Katie uses person-centred work and dialectical behaviour therapy techniques in sessions. Person-centred therapy focuses on listening and helping the client identify what matters most to them, which helps with feelings of anger, low mood and relationship strain. Dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT) offers practical skills for managing strong emotions and improving self-control, useful when anger becomes overwhelming.Finding the right approach is collaborative. Katie will talk with each person about goals and preferences, and then match elements from person-centred work, DBT skills or solution-focused tasks to those aims. That means the plan can change as the sessions progress and as people try different ways of coping.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when someone needs a quick skills review. It also means sessions can be scheduled around work, caring responsibilities or medical appointments without promising a particular format.
