About Kitty
Kitty Schwichiski is an NCPS counsellor in the United Kingdom with seven years' experience. She works with people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, relationships, low self-esteem, anger and life transitions. Kitty also supports people dealing with trauma, grief, parenting strain, career pressure and depression.
She begins by helping clients notice how thoughts and feelings show up day to day. Kitty talks through triggers and patterns so clients can see what keeps problems going. The first sessions focus on understanding the situation and finding practical, immediate steps to reduce overwhelm.
Kitty offers a range of tools to interrupt unhelpful thinking and manage strong emotions. She uses techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioural work and mindfulness-informed practices to build new ways of responding. Sessions may include skill practice, breathing and grounding exercises, and ways to test out different approaches between meetings.
Her style is straightforward and collaborative. Kitty spends time listening and asking questions that help clients clarify what matters to them. She aims to create a steady process of small changes rather than promising quick fixes.
For people worried about bursts of temper, simmering resentment, or living with someone else’s difficult emotions, Kitty helps identify triggers and build manageable strategies. To begin, clients follow the site steps to match and book a first session.
Therapeutic approaches used and how online work fits
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, often called ACT, helps people notice painful thoughts without getting pushed around by them and then take actions that match their values. ACT can help when worry or anger keeps someone stuck in the same patterns. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches step-by-step skills to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, panic, low mood and compulsive habits.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kitty will discuss options and agree a plan with each person based on their goals and what feels workable for them. The process is collaborative so techniques can be adjusted as progress is reviewed.
Confirm the current session formats before booking as the biography does not list specific session types. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people practice skills in the places where difficulties arise and bring those experiences back into sessions for discussion.
