Katie Lohan, BACP

Katie Lohan is a UK-based therapist with three years of professional experience, offering support to people navigating trauma, grief, parenting challenges, self-esteem concerns, motivation difficulties, and relationship issues. She works from a foundation of respect, sensitivity, and compassion, helping clients explore their feelings and build on their own strengths to move toward a more satisfying life.

Practicing within a person-centered framework, Katie places the client at the centre of each session so the work is guided by the individual's priorities and pace. She believes people have internal resources that can be discovered and strengthened through reflective conversation, and she stays alongside clients as they investigate their experiences and choices.

Katie holds registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), which indicates her membership of a professional counselling body in the United Kingdom. She offers a supportive, nonjudgmental approach for those facing stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, parenting and family difficulties, identity and intimacy matters, mood disorders, and other life changes. Taking the first step toward change can be challenging, and Katie aims to make that step feel manageable and supported.

Approach-focused online therapy with flexible formats

Katie combines evidence-informed approaches to tailor work around each person's needs. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and learn practical ways to accept difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to meaningful action - it can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and life transitions. Client-Centred Therapy places the client at the heart of the process, emphasising empathy, unconditional positive regard, and collaboration so individuals can access their own resources and self-directed change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers structured techniques to identify and reframe unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns, which can help with problems like anxiety, depression, and distressing habits.

Katie views finding the right approach as a collaborative process. She discusses options with clients, listens to their preferences and goals, and adapts techniques so the work fits the person's situation rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing practical flexibility for people balancing work, family, or mobility needs. These formats make it easier to access consistent support from registered professionals without the need to travel, and they allow therapy to fit around daily life while maintaining therapeutic continuity.
