About Kate
counsellor, BACP member, 9 years' experience. Kate Reeve works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem and depression, among other concerns. She also supports people facing relationship and family issues, parenting strain, sleep and eating problems, and ADHD. Sessions are offered in English and Polish and she accepts international clients.
Kate aims to help people spot what stops them using their strengths. She listens and offers practical ways to try differently. Therapy can include looking at how thoughts and feelings affect behaviour, and building steps to manage distress day to day. She names what is getting in the way and suggests ideas to test in everyday life.
Her approach draws on several methods including acceptance and commitment ideas, attachment work and client-centred ways of working. Cognitive behavioural techniques and emotionally-focused ideas are also part of how she works. Kate describes this as an integrative practice that uses different tools as needed.
She has particular interest in trauma, post-traumatic stress and complex post-traumatic stress, and in the effects of domestic violence. She also has experience with neurodivergent people and issues around adoption, foster care and attachment difficulties. That experience feeds into how she plans sessions and sets goals with people.
Sessions typically look at what someone wants to change and small steps to get there. Kate invites practical tasks between meetings and checks progress together. She uses straightforward language and keeps sessions focused on what is most important to the person booking time with her.
Therapeutic approaches used in online counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without letting them decide actions. It focuses on choosing values and taking small steps towards them, which can help with anxiety, depression and low motivation.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns from early relationships and how they affect current connections. It can help with relationship difficulties, attachment issues and complex trauma by identifying unhelpful patterns and offering new ways of relating.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss options and try different methods based on what a person wants and how they respond. That decision is made together and can change as therapy progresses.
The biography does not list specific online formats, so please confirm which session types are offered before booking.
