Catia Cosme, BACP

Catia Cosme is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP registration, and has four years of professional experience working with people facing stress, anxiety, grief, loss and depression. She aims to make first contact feel straightforward and non-intimidating for someone taking that first step.

Catia creates a calm space where clients can talk about difficult thoughts and feelings without fear of judgment. She focuses on helping people name what they are going through and find manageable next steps. Sessions are practical and conversational rather than full of clinical jargon.

Her work also covers relationship strain, problems with self-esteem, anger, and issues linked to parenting and family dynamics. Catia lists midlife crisis among the areas she supports, and she helps people facing career crossroads, isolation, or a search for life purpose.

She has experience with addiction concerns, trauma and abuse, and multicultural or immigration-related stresses. Catia also supports people struggling with obsessive or compulsive behaviours and the exhaustion of compassion fatigue.

People who prefer calm, straightforward conversations tend to fit well with her style. She encourages small, practical changes and collaborative goal-setting so progress can be checked along the way.

Therapeutic methods and online working

Catia uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions. One common approach focuses on practical coping strategies to reduce stress and anxiety, teaching simple tools you can use between sessions to manage overwhelming thoughts and feelings. Another strand of her work helps people process grief and loss through paced conversations that allow memories and emotions to be acknowledged while planning gradual steps forward.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and suggest methods that fit those aims. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as therapy progresses.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by reducing travel time or allowing appointments during a workday break. If you want to use online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Many people find remote sessions help maintain continuity when life is otherwise hectic.
