About Katie

Katie Rennison is a counsellor with three years of practice who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief and trauma. She also supports those dealing with relationship strain, addictions, self-esteem and sleep or eating concerns. Katie works with issues such as ADHD, compassion fatigue and parenting strain, and she has a particular interest in the impact of trauma on wellbeing.

Katie practises a person-centred style that puts the relationship first.

Background and approach

She listens with empathy and aims to build trust so people can speak honestly and at their own pace. Her approach is grounded in respect and unconditional positive regard. She draws on a range of methods rather than using one fixed model.

Katie uses trauma-focused work alongside client-centred, existential, mindfulness and solution-focused ideas to shape sessions. That lets her tailor what happens in the room to each person’s needs. Her previous role included two years as an in-house counsellor for NHS doctors, where she worked with anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, abuse and neglect, ADHD, autism and recovery from addiction.

That experience informs how she responds to complex or overlapping problems. Katie is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Sessions are offered in English and she works with people across the United Kingdom and internationally.

She aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where people can explore what matters to them and find a way forward.

How Katie uses trauma-aware and person-centred methods online

Katie commonly blends trauma-focused work with a person-centred approach to help people understand how past events affect their current wellbeing. Trauma-focused therapy looks at the effects of traumatic experiences and uses gentle, practical steps to reduce distress and build coping skills. Client-centred work focuses on listening, respect and following the client’s pace to help them feel heard and valued.

She also uses solution-focused and mindfulness ideas when helpful, aiming for practical changes and greater present-moment awareness. Choosing an approach is collaborative - the therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then shape sessions together. That means the method can change over time as needs shift.

Online work is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to fit different routines and comfort levels. Video calls allow more visual connection, phone sessions can be easier with lower bandwidth, live chat can be a shorter check-in, and text messaging lets work continue between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, caring duties and other commitments while keeping the focus on meaningful progress.
