Kate Fletcher, BACP, NCPS

Kate Fletcher is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who focuses on helping people navigate midlife transitions and related concerns. She supports those experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, grief, and challenges around intimacy and self-esteem. Her approach is warm and respectful, and she tailors conversations to each person’s situation.

With five years of professional experience, Kate uses a mix of methods to suit different needs. She draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to explore patterns in close relationships and how they affect feelings. Client-Centred Therapy underpins her style, creating a space where people feel heard and understood. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps when practical steps are needed to change unhelpful thoughts and routines.

Kate describes the work as collaborative. She listens first, then helps people set clear, manageable goals. Sessions can focus on improving communication, managing anxiety, coping with loss, or rebuilding confidence after difficult events.

She also offers help with issues like parenting strain, eating and sleeping problems, anger, chronic pain or long-term illness, and challenges related to ADHD. Additional concerns include abandonment, codependency, body image, dissociation, and isolation.

Kate holds BACP and NCPS credentials and brings a straightforward, compassionate manner to sessions. To begin, people use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire to arrange sessions according to the therapist’s schedule.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online counselling

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how those patterns shape feelings and reactions. Online conversations can help identify recurring attachment themes and practise new ways of relating to others. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on a supportive, non-judgemental relationship where the person leads the pace and topic. This approach is useful when someone needs a steady, listening space to sort through emotions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and uses short exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it can help with anxiety, low mood and unhelpful routines.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and together they will try approaches that fit those aims. Changes are planned in small steps so people can see what helps and adjust as needed.

Confirm the session formats offered before booking, as the profile does not list specific options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work, family life and day-to-day commitments. It can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and make it simpler to maintain continuity when schedules shift. Registered or accredited professionals can guide how to make remote sessions practical and helpful for everyday life.
