About Kate

Kate Janach is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has four years of practice. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, anger and relationship problems, among other concerns. She also supports those coping with grief, parenting pressures and life changes.

She describes her approach as integrative, combining different ways of working to suit each person. Sessions focus on listening and helping clients make sense of recent or past difficulties. The aim is to give time to think about what matters and to decide what to do next.

Her background includes general and mental health nursing, so she understands pressures faced by people working in healthcare and related settings. This experience informs how she notices work-related strain and compassion fatigue in conversations.

Kate maintains professional standards as a registered BACP member and carries professional insurance. She emphasises the relationship in counselling as central to making progress rather than relying solely on techniques.

People can expect straightforward conversations about feelings, behaviour and relationships. The counsellor does not give direct advice but helps clients reflect and develop practical ways of managing anger, stress, sleep or eating concerns.

To begin, clients use the service's matching process to book a first session. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are accepted, with costs varying by location and a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

Therapeutic approaches and online work

Kate describes herself as an integrative counsellor who draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to suit the person. One common approach she uses focuses on helping people identify patterns in thoughts and behaviour and then try small, practical changes to reduce anger and anxiety. Another approach emphasises processing difficult experiences and grief, helping people make sense of what happened and how it affects current feelings and relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kate will discuss options and together you will decide what fits your needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and adjustments can be made as you go along if something does not feel helpful.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the exact session formats available before booking since the biography does not list formats. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by saving travel time or allowing a shorter check-in during a work break. It can also suit people who prefer not to use video, opting instead for different ways to connect depending on what they and the counsellor agree will work best.
