About Katy
Katy Yeates is a counsellor who supports adults with stress, anxiety, low mood and relationship concerns. She works with people facing grief, confidence struggles, addiction and major life changes. Katy also helps with parenting pressures and sleeping or eating difficulties.
Her style is warm, calm and compassionate. She adapts each session to what the person needs in the moment. That might mean time to talk things through, practical tools to try between sessions, or clear steps to move forward.
Background and approach
Katy uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and client-centred work. She draws on skills from attachment-based and dialectical approaches when they fit the issue. The goal is to find straightforward methods that make day-to-day life easier.
She has seven years of experience and holds NCPS as a listed credential. Katy practices in the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English. She aims to make starting therapy feel manageable for someone who is nervous about taking that step.
People who meet her can expect a steady, non-judgemental presence and a focus on practical change. Sessions are shaped around each person’s priorities and the small, realistic steps that help them feel more in control.

How Katy’s approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being driven by them, then choose actions that match their values. It can help with anxiety, low mood and major life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at linking thoughts, feelings and behaviours and gives practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, sleep and mood problems. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationships shape current coping and communication, and it can be useful for relationship worries and parenting stress.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Katy will discuss different options and try methods that match a person’s goals and preferences. She treats this as a collaborative process and adjusts the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy here is offered by registered or accredited professionals and includes video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video sessions are good for a fuller conversation, phone sessions suit lower bandwidth or quick check-ins, live chat lets someone type when speech feels difficult, and messaging is useful for short updates or exercises between meetings. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare and other commitments while keeping the focus on practical change.
