Kate Fletcher

Kate Fletcher is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship concerns. She also supports people coping with trauma and abuse, grief, issues around intimacy, and eating and food-related issues. Her approach is respectful and compassionate, and she adapts conversations to each person’s situation.

With five years of professional experience in the United Kingdom, Kate works in a straightforward, collaborative way. She listens closely, helps clients name what matters most, and develops a plan based on their goals. Sessions focus on practical steps as well as on understanding patterns that keep problems repeating.

Kate uses ideas from attachment work to look at how early relationships shape current difficulties. She also draws on client-centred techniques to keep the conversation focused on the client’s priorities. Cognitive behavioural tools are offered when useful to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours.

People come to Kate for a range of concerns beyond mood and anxiety, including body image, eating and food-related issues, parenting strain, anger, and managing life changes. She also supports people dealing with isolation, shame, codependency and communication problems.

Her style is warm and direct. Kate aims to make sessions practical so people can try things between meetings. She encourages gradual change and checks progress together, adapting the plan if something isn’t working.

Approaches that guide online work

Kate uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early connections influence current patterns in relationships and self-worth; this can help with intimacy issues, abandonment worries and attachment concerns. Client-centred work places the person’s experience at the heart of sessions, allowing people to lead the pace and focus of the conversation. Cognitive behavioural techniques are offered when helpful to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and to try different ways of coping with anxiety or low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Kate discusses options and helps clients decide what to try first based on their goals and preferences. That collaborative process continues so approaches can be adjusted as progress is made or new needs emerge.

If you are considering online therapy, check the available session options before booking as formats are not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, reduce travel, and allow a shorter check-in when time is limited. It can also allow people to join sessions from where they are currently located, helping therapy stay consistent during life changes. Registered or accredited professionals can help find the best way to work that suits a client’s routine and life commitments.
