About Kate

Kate Jarvis is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. She focuses on issues such as stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, grief, relationship concerns and parenting. She aims to create a calm, respectful space where people can talk through what matters to them and notice their own strengths.

She believes each person knows their own story best and brings strengths to the work. Sessions aim to help clients build confidence, find motivation and manage life changes.

Background and approach

The approach is practical and conversational rather than lecture-based. Kate uses a client-centred way of working that follows the person’s pace and priorities. That means listening carefully, reflecting back what she hears and helping clients explore options without pressure.

This style can suit people dealing with anxiety, depression, grief or major life transitions. Her experience also covers specific challenges such as addiction, trauma and abuse, sleep problems, anger, and issues around attachment and abandonment. She supports people facing long-term illness, caregiver stress, and work or career pressures.

Sessions are available in English and Kate accepts international clients. She offers several online formats to fit different needs, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and arrange sessions through the platform.

Online support

How client-centred therapy works online

Client-centred therapy focuses on listening, empathy and supporting the person to lead the process. The therapist offers a non-judgemental space and reflects back what they hear, helping clients clarify feelings and decide next steps. This approach suits people facing anxiety, low mood, grief and relationship or parenting concerns.

Because the work follows the client’s pace, it can be used alongside support for specific issues such as trauma, addiction or long-term illness. The therapist and client collaborate to find what helps, adjusting the approach as goals and needs change. Finding the right way of working is part of the process and will be reviewed together over time.

Online therapy makes it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that is helpful. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer writing or want flexibility between scheduled appointments. Registered or accredited professionals can offer these formats to make therapy more accessible across locations.
