About Katherine
Katherine Hunt is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has 10 years of experience. She works with adults on common pressures at home and work, including stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, career concerns, addictions and trauma-related issues. Katherine also helps with family problems, intimacy-related worries, anger and coping with life changes.
Her approach is straightforward and conversational. She uses client-centred conversation to make space for what matters to each person. When useful, she draws on cognitive behavioural techniques to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and solution-focused tools to identify small, practical steps.
Katherine pays attention to attachment and abandonment issues and to difficulties that often follow trauma. She also supports people dealing with caregiver stress, codependency, communication problems, and struggles with guilt or shame. Sessions are aimed at helping people notice patterns and try different ways of responding.
Practical habits and mindfulness tools are part of the work when they fit the person’s goals. Katherine explains techniques simply and practices them together with clients in sessions. She clarifies short-term goals and checks in on progress as work continues.
People who come for help are treated as individuals rather than labels. Katherine keeps the focus on what is happening now and on steps that can reduce day-to-day strain. To begin, follow the site’s process to view online therapy options and schedule an initial session.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Katherine uses client-centred work to keep sessions focused on each person’s concerns. That approach involves open conversation and active listening so the client leads what matters most. It is helpful for people who need space to talk through relationship strain, family worries or grief.She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy to identify thinking and behaviour patterns that add to stress and low mood. CBT offers simple exercises and experiments to try between sessions, which can help with anxiety, depression, anger and some addiction-related patterns.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Katherine will discuss goals and preferences and help decide whether client-centred conversation, CBT techniques or mindfulness exercises should take priority. That decision is collaborative and may change as progress is made.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking because the profile does not specify them here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week and reduce travel time. They also allow for shorter check-ins when life is hectic, and for practising mindfulness or CBT exercises together without needing to be in the same room.
