Kate Turner, NCPS

Kate Turner is a UK-based, fully qualified person-centred counsellor with NCPS, a counselling qualification, and over four years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, bereavement, low self-esteem and depression, offering a calm, accepting presence that encourages clients to explore their own strengths and solutions.

Grounded in a person-centred philosophy, Kate adopts a gentle, client-led pace so each individual can move forward in ways that feel right for them. She treats each person as a whole rather than reducing them to a label or diagnosis, aiming to create a supportive space where clients can reconnect with who they are rather than who they feel they must be.

Kate also integrates cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) techniques into her work, helping clients examine links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and take practical steps toward change. Together with clients she identifies achievable goals and collaborates on strategies to build greater wellbeing and fulfilment. She welcomes contact from anyone who feels this approach may suit them and is open to discussing the best way to begin therapy.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Client-Centred Therapy places the client at the heart of the work, offering a respectful, non-directive space where the person leads the pace and focus of sessions. This approach supports self-exploration and is often helpful for those wanting to rebuild self-esteem, process grief, or navigate life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical tools to change unhelpful patterns. CBT can be particularly useful for managing anxiety, stress and low mood by teaching skills to reframe thinking and develop coping strategies.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Working collaboratively, the therapist will help determine which methods best match a client’s needs, goals and preferences, and may blend techniques from different approaches to suit the individual.

Online therapy via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging offers flexibility for people with busy schedules, limited mobility or those living far from in-person services. These options make it easier to maintain regular sessions, access timely support and work with registered professionals from your chosen location.
