About Catherine

Catherine Robinson is a person-centred counsellor who combines that approach with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. She has 18 years of experience and works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship difficulties. She also supports those who have experienced trauma and abuse and helps with issues such as ADHD, addictions and grief.

Her style is direct and empathetic. Sessions focus on what a person is dealing with now and on practical ways to cope.

Background and approach

Catherine listens without judgement and helps people find small, achievable steps that fit their life. She draws on person-centred principles to build a trusting connection. That helps people feel heard and to explore painful experiences safely.

She then uses CBT techniques to identify unhelpful patterns and to try new ways of thinking and behaving. Catherine has worked in counselling since 2007 and brings nearly two decades of practical experience. She has helped people with a wide range of concerns including intimacy and self-esteem, sleeping problems, anger, bipolar mood issues and caring-related stress.

Appointments are offered in multiple formats to suit busy schedules, including evenings and weekends. Catherine encourages anyone who is ready to take a first step to complete a short matching questionnaire and arrange an initial session to discuss goals and next steps.

Ways of working Catherine names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Therapeutic approaches you can access online

Catherine works with person-centred counselling and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) in online sessions. Person-centred counselling focuses on listening, empathy and building trust so people can talk through difficult experiences and decide what matters to them. CBT looks at thoughts and behaviours and offers practical exercises to reduce anxiety, improve mood and change unhelpful patterns.

She also uses trauma-focused ideas when needed to help people who have experienced abuse or frightening events. That involves pacing conversations so memories can be processed more safely and helping people develop skills for managing strong emotions and triggers.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk about goals, preferences and what feels most helpful. Together they will try methods that suit the person's needs and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video lets people use visual cues and face-to-face discussion. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging allow shorter exchanges or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options help make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, family and other commitments.
