Kate Reeve, BACP

Kate Reeve is a BACP-registered therapist with nine years of experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem and depression. She works with a wide range of concerns including addictions, relationship and family difficulties, eating and sleeping problems, parenting challenges, anger, career transitions, coping with life changes and compassion fatigue. Her additional focus areas include issues such as abandonment, adoption and foster care, attachment difficulties, neurodiversity, domestic violence and dissociation.

Kate works from an integrative perspective that honors each person as unique. She helps clients identify the talents and strengths that may be hidden or blocked and supports practical, sustainable change so life becomes more satisfying. Her practice includes focused work with trauma, PTSD and complex PTSD, along with generalized anxiety and depression, and she has several years of experience working with neurodivergent clients.

Clients can expect a respectful, collaborative approach that aims to uncover what is preventing growth and to build skills for greater wellbeing. Kate describes her role as a compassionate guide - witnessing progress and helping people let go of what holds them back so they can move toward their fullest potential. BACP refers to the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, the professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists in the United Kingdom.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Kate integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy into her practice. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice internal experience, clarify values and take committed steps toward a meaningful life - it is often helpful for anxiety, depression and difficulties with avoidance. Attachment-Based Therapy explores relationship patterns formed early in life and how they affect current connections - it can be valuable for people working with relationship issues, abandonment and attachment difficulties.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey and Kate works collaboratively with each person to find the best fit. She discusses options, adapts techniques to individual needs and reviews progress together so the approach evolves with the client's goals and preferences.

Online therapy with Kate is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care during life transitions, travel or busy periods, and they allow registered professionals to deliver focused, consistent support regardless of location.
