About Kate

Kate Emery is a counsellor who uses a client-centred approach to help people through difficult moments. She works with stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, and issues with self-esteem and confidence. Kate believes clients know their own stories and brings a calm, respectful presence to sessions.

Kate has five years of professional experience in the United Kingdom and holds BACP registration, which she lists as her credential.

Background and approach

She draws on a straightforward, listening-based style that focuses on understanding what matters to each person. Sessions aim to build on strengths and practical coping skills rather than prescribe one fixed solution. People come to Kate for many kinds of struggles, including relationship and intimacy worries, parenting stress, career uncertainty, and addiction-related concerns.

She also supports those facing major life changes such as bereavement, separation, health crises, and the stresses that come from caregiving roles. Additional work includes adoption and foster care questions, attachment issues, and compassion fatigue. In sessions Kate pays attention to how feelings, memories and everyday pressures affect decision making.

Conversations are paced to suit the individual and to help people make small, manageable changes. She avoids jargon and explains ideas in simple, clear language. Her aim is to help clients feel more able to cope and to reconnect with what they value.

The focus is on practical steps and ongoing support tailored to each person’s goals and circumstances.

Ways of working Kate names

Client-Centred Therapy

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

Client-centred care online and how it helps

Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the centre of the work. The therapist listens without judgement and helps the person name their goals. This approach is useful for issues like stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and coping after loss because it focuses on what the individual finds most important.

In practice, sessions are conversational and paced to suit each person. Kate supports people to make small changes and build on existing strengths rather than imposing techniques. Deciding which way of working to use is a collaborative process; the therapist and client review what is helpful and adjust as things progress.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls let people use face-to-face conversation without travel. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is low or a quick check-in fits the day. Live chat and text-based messaging allow shorter, more frequent contact and can suit people who prefer typing to speaking. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt these formats so therapy fits around work, caregiving, health or travel commitments, making it easier to keep continuity of care.
