Catherine Robinson , NCPS

Catherine Robinson is a person-centered counsellor with 18 years of professional experience who brings a warm, steady presence to clients seeking change and support. She holds the NCPS credential, indicating membership in a recognised counselling organisation, and blends a person-centred approach with practical cognitive behavioral techniques to tailor therapy to each individual.

Catherine has worked with people facing a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, ADHD, addictions, grief, intimacy-related problems, sleeping difficulties, anger, self-esteem challenges, bipolar-related concerns, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue. She also addresses additional focus areas such as abandonment, attachment issues, body image, caregiver stress, chronic pain and illness, codependency, communication and control issues, and blended family dynamics.

She offers a non-judgemental, empathic, honest, and genuine style designed to empower clients to explore what has brought them to therapy and to identify practical steps forward. Catherine recognises that people are often busy, so she aims to be flexible with scheduling and makes evening and weekend slots available where possible. She accepts clients in the United Kingdom and works with international clients as well, supporting people who are ready to take the first steps toward a more fulfilling life.

Remote therapeutic approaches tailored to your needs

Catherine commonly draws on Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) in her work. Client-Centered Therapy emphasises empathic listening and genuine acceptance to help clients explore feelings, build self-understanding, and strengthen self-esteem - it is often helpful for relationship concerns, life transitions, and identity questions. CBT focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behaviour and developing practical strategies to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning, which can support people dealing with anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and unhelpful habits. ACT encourages acceptance of difficult emotions while clarifying personal values and committing to meaningful actions, which can aid coping with stress, trauma-related distress, and motivation challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Catherine works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques as therapy progresses to ensure the plan remains aligned with what matters most to the client.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - so clients can choose formats that suit their schedules and comfort. These options make it easier to access skilled support from licensed professionals without disrupting daily responsibilities, and they allow for continuity of care across different locations and time zones.
