Kate Reeve , BACP

Kate Reeve is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and relationship difficulties. She works with issues such as low self-esteem, grief, addiction, sleep problems, parenting strain and compassion fatigue. Kate also supports people living with ADHD and those affected by domestic violence and separation.

She uses a practical, person-focused style. Sessions aim to identify what gets in the way of daily life and find manageable ways to change it. Conversations are warm and direct, with a focus on what the client wants to achieve rather than on jargon or labels.

Her approach draws on a range of methods including acceptance and commitment ideas, attachment work and cognitive behavioural techniques. These are used flexibly to match a person’s needs and pace. Clients who are neurodivergent, adopted or coping with care-related stress are within her stated interests.

Kate holds BACP accreditation, which is listed among her credentials. She has practised for nine years in the United Kingdom and offers work in English and Polish. International clients may be accepted depending on arrangements.

Typical sessions focus on clear, achievable steps. Kate helps people discover strengths, manage difficult emotions and build more satisfying routines. The aim is steady, durable change rather than quick fixes.

People who want to begin are invited to describe their concerns and goals so sessions can be tailored. The emphasis is on building skills and insight that fit everyday life.

Therapeutic approaches and online delivery

Kate often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and still take steps towards what matters to them. It is useful for anxiety, depression and coping with ongoing stress.

She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy, which looks at early relationship patterns and how they affect current bonds and emotional responses. This work can help with relationship struggles, abandonment concerns and difficulties trusting others.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk through options with the client and try methods that fit their goals and preferences, adjusting as progress is made. Clients are encouraged to set practical aims and review what is helpful in weekly sessions.

Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and reading of tone and expression, while phone sessions can work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Text and live chat let people work in shorter bursts and fit therapy around busy days. These options increase flexibility and make it easier to keep regular appointments from different locations.
