Katie McGhee , NCPS

Katie McGhee is a UK-licensed practitioner who brings six years of private practice experience to her therapeutic work, supported by an advanced professional diploma in psychotherapeutic counselling. She draws on a long background in public service, having worked for 24 years as a Welfare Rights Officer where she provided counselling advice and advocated for people navigating difficult systems.

Katie specializes in helping adults manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, addictions, parenting and intimacy-related issues. Her approach is informed by established methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and client-centered techniques, and she tailors each treatment plan to the needs of the individual. Katie also supports clients facing life changes, sleep difficulties, anger and self-esteem challenges, career questions, ADHD and compassion fatigue.

Holding the NCPS credential, which signals adherence to recognised professional training and standards, Katie emphasizes respect, sensitivity and compassion in every therapeutic relationship. She works collaboratively with clients to develop practical strategies and coping skills, adapting interventions to suit personal goals and preferences. Her background in advocacy means she often combines practical problem-solving with emotional support to help clients move forward.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Support

Client-centered therapy focuses on providing a supportive, non-directive space where the client is treated with respect and empathy while exploring their own solutions and understanding. This approach can help with relationship concerns, self-esteem, grief and general emotional processing. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify and change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep issues and stress by building practical coping strategies.

These approaches are offered with flexibility and collaboration in mind. Katie works together with clients to choose or blend methods that best match their needs, goals and preferences, and licensed professionals adjust plans as progress is made to ensure the right therapeutic fit.

Online therapy via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging offers practical benefits for busy lives and those with mobility or location constraints. Remote sessions make it easier to schedule consistent appointments, access support from home, and maintain continuity of care when life circumstances change, while still allowing therapists to apply the same evidence-informed approaches used in face-to-face work.
