About Kate
Kate Janach is a counsellor with four years of experience who draws on a background in general and mental health nursing. She works with people facing loss, trauma, anxiety and stress. She also helps with relationship and parenting concerns and with issues such as eating, sleeping and low self-esteem.
She aims to offer a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk about what has happened to them. Sessions focus on listening, understanding feelings, and helping clients name what matters to them next.
Background and approach
Kate does not give advice; she supports people to make their own decisions. Her approach is integrative, which means she tailors methods to each person rather than using a single set of techniques. That lets her adapt the way she works as a client’s needs change over time.
The emphasis is on practical, doable steps alongside talking and reflection. Kate’s nursing background gives her insight into pressures faced by people working in healthcare and caregiving roles. She is a member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists, shown as BACP, and carries professional insurance.
Sessions can address a wide range of concerns including grief, addiction, trauma and abuse, compassion fatigue, chronic illness challenges, and relationship or intimacy-related difficulties. She also supports people facing life transitions such as separation, ageing concerns, or career change. Work is collaborative and paced to what each person can manage.
Kate aims to help clients build steadier ground and clearer choices as they move through difficult times.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online support
Kate uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to each person. One approach focuses on talking through past events and their emotional impact, helping people make sense of trauma, loss and painful memories. This approach helps with symptoms like anxiety, grief and trouble sleeping. Another approach emphasises practical coping skills and step-by-step changes to daily routines and thinking patterns, which can help with stress, low mood, addiction-related urges and self-esteem issues.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each client about their goals and preferences and then suggest ways of working that feel most helpful. Decisions about which methods to use are made together and can change as progress happens.
Online therapy here is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation across distances, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or messaging suit short check-ins or people who prefer typing. These options make it easier to fit counselling around work, family life and other commitments while keeping the focus on steady, practical support.
