About Kate
Kate Jarvis is a counsellor who focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety and relationship strain. She uses a gentle, person-led style to help clients talk through grief, low self-esteem and life changes. Kate works with issues such as anger, sleeping problems, addictions and depression.
She approaches sessions with a direct, respectful manner and aims to help clients find clearer ways forward. Kate holds the NCPS credential and has four years of professional experience in the United Kingdom.
Background and approach
She believes people know their own stories best and brings that view into every session. That means listening first, then helping clients notice strengths and options they may have missed. Her work covers a wide range of concerns, including family difficulties, attachment and abandonment issues, chronic illness and caregiver stress.
She also supports people dealing with codependency, communication problems and the effects of trauma and abuse. Practical coping skills are discussed alongside exploring what matters to each person. Sessions are offered in English and Kate accepts international clients.
She uses a collaborative pace, adapting to how much reflection or practical problem-solving a person wants. The focus is on small, manageable steps that make daily life easier. Clients can expect simple, straightforward conversation rather than technical jargon.
Kate aims to create a calm space where people can make sense of painful events and plan for change. Her style is supportive, focused and rooted in the person’s own goals.

Client-led approaches and online counselling
Client-centred therapy is about listening and following the person's lead. The therapist gives time for someone to tell their story, reflects back what she hears and helps the person find their own solutions. This approach suits people who want to be understood first and then decide what changes to try.Kate focuses on practical coping alongside exploration. That can mean working on sleep routines, managing anxiety day-to-day or finding ways to deal with anger and stress. It can also mean talking through grief, attachment issues or the impact of trauma and abuse to make sense of difficult feelings.
Finding the right approach is a joint process. The therapist will check in about your goals, try different ways of working and adjust the pace to what you need. Together you will choose what feels useful and practical for your situation.
Online sessions offer flexible access to therapy by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation, phone work can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits quick check-ins, and messaging lets you write between meetings. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, caregiving or travel while keeping the focus on steady progress.
