Katy Yeates is a UK counsellor with seven years of experience supporting adults through anxiety, relationship issues, stress, overwhelm, grief, low mood, confidence struggles, and significant life changes. She combines a steady presence with practical focus to help clients find clearer perspectives and manageable next steps.

She works in a warm, calm and compassionate manner, adapting each session to what a client most needs in the moment. Whether someone wants space to talk through feelings, practical tools to manage symptoms, or a clear plan to move forward, she shapes sessions to fit those goals.

Katy holds NCPS, a counselling credential, and approaches the work with empathy and respect. She recognises that starting therapy takes courage and aims to help people feel more steady, supported and in control as they navigate change and challenge.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Katy uses evidence-informed approaches to help clients build meaningful change and greater emotional balance. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people accept difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying personal values and taking committed action toward a more meaningful life; it is useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early and current relationships shape patterns of connection and trust, supporting work on relationship difficulties, grief, and relational trauma. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and teaches practical strategies to change them, which can assist with low mood, anxiety, and confidence struggles.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Katy works collaboratively with clients to identify which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques over time as progress and priorities evolve.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage with licensed professionals through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. This flexibility can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, maintain continuity through transitions, and access support from home while working with a therapist who tailors sessions to each client.
