Kate Wilson, BACP

Kate Wilson is a registered therapist in the United Kingdom with six years of professional experience and accreditation from the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She works with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, panic attacks, depression, grief and loss, trauma and abuse, and the practical challenges of life changes and goal setting.

Her approach links past experiences to present-day patterns, helping people understand how earlier relationships and events can shape current behaviour. She specialises in attachment and abandonment issues and supports clients in building calming strategies and practical coping tools for a busy, often chaotic world. She combines a person-centred stance with evidence-informed methods such as CBT and DBT, and she uses creative ways of working with emotions to address trauma, PTSD and related difficulties.

Trauma-based therapy has produced positive outcomes in her practice, and she collaborates with each person to develop strategies that fit into everyday life. She tailors conversation and treatment plans to meet unique needs, working with sensitivity, respect and compassion. Kate frames therapy as a hopeful process that supports and empowers people taking steps toward a more fulfilling life, and she looks forward to supporting those ready to begin that journey.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters to them and build practical steps toward those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. It is often helpful for anxiety, stress, and situations where life goals feel unclear.

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current connections and emotional patterns. This approach supports work on abandonment, attachment difficulties and relationship challenges by exploring how past bonds influence present behaviour and attachment needs.

Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the centre of the process, offering a non-judgemental space where the therapist follows the client’s lead to explore feelings and choices. It can be especially useful for building self-esteem, navigating life changes and processing grief.

Kate will work collaboratively with each person to identify which approach, or combination of approaches, best fits their needs, goals and preferences. The selection of methods is part of the therapeutic process and will be reviewed together as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, support access across different locations, and allow registered professionals to provide consistent care in formats that suit each person’s life.
