About Kate
Kate Reeve is a counsellor who supports people struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, grief and parenting challenges. She helps when coping strategies stop working and when life feels overwhelming. Sessions are offered in English and Polish and she has worked in the field for nine years.
Kate holds BACP registration which indicates adherence to that professional body’s standards. Kate aims to help people notice what blocks their strengths and talents.
Background and approach
She uses practical conversations to identify small, realistic changes. The focus is on clearer daily coping, better emotional awareness and small steps that add up over time. Her approach is integrative and draws on several therapies.
Kate blends ideas from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-based work and Emotionally-Focused Therapy. That mix lets her match methods to the individual rather than following a single script. She often works with people facing trauma, domestic violence, or long-term anxiety and low self-esteem.
Neurodivergent clients are mentioned among her areas of experience. Kate also supports those dealing with relationship strain, career stress, addiction concerns and compassion fatigue. Sessions can take different forms depending on what suits the person.
The aim is to help people feel more able to make choices, try new ways of coping and build a life that feels more satisfying. Kate describes it as a privilege to watch people grow and find their strengths.

Therapeutic approaches and how they translate online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people learn to live with difficult thoughts while taking steps that match their values. It can help with anxiety, depression and feeling stuck by teaching simple exercises to notice thoughts and act in ways that matter to you.Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people understand emotional responses and build more supported ways of relating to others, which can be useful for relationship strain, abandonment concerns and self-worth issues.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kate will discuss different methods and together decide what fits your needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative process means the plan can change as you try things and learn what helps.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let you use visual cues and longer sessions, phone sessions suit lower bandwidth or quick check-ins, and live chat or text messaging work well for shorter, frequent check-ins or when typing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, parenting or travel and to maintain continuity between sessions.
