Kate Williams, BACP

Kate Williams is a client-centered therapist who trained and qualified in the United Kingdom in 2022. She completed 100 hours of voluntary clinical practice as part of her training at a charity supporting people dealing with self-harming behaviours and suicidal thoughts, an experience that shaped her calm and attentive approach to difficult emotional states.

Her work is led by the needs and priorities of each client, and she describes her role as accompanying people through challenging feelings, thoughts, and experiences from a grounded, steady presence. Kate brings particular attention to themes such as stress, anxiety, relationships, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, and compassion fatigue, while also working with related concerns like attachment and family-of-origin issues.

She holds BACP credentials - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - reflecting her registration with that professional body. In sessions she centres the client’s perspective and collaborates to create a supportive space for exploration, pacing the process according to each person’s readiness and goals.

Client-Centered Care Delivered Online

Kate Williams practises client-centered therapy, an approach that focuses on listening deeply, reflecting back what the client brings, and creating a non-directive environment where the individual sets the pace and direction. This way of working is helpful for issues such as stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, trauma and abuse, and self-esteem concerns, because it prioritises the client’s own understanding and goals.

Alongside this, Kate adopts a client-led supportive stance in sessions, accompanying people through difficult emotions from a calm, grounded perspective and helping them find their own solutions over time. She works collaboratively with each person to identify the therapeutic approach that best fits their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting methods as the relationship develops.

Online therapy with Kate is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which makes it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and to access support from home. Working remotely allows registered professionals and therapists to maintain continuity of care and offers practical flexibility while preserving the focus on a trusting therapeutic relationship.
