About Katie

Katie Robinson is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has four years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with people who are facing relationship strain, family conflict, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related concerns and compassion fatigue. Katie also supports issues such as communication problems, forgiveness, guilt and shame, life purpose, post-traumatic stress and self-love.

Katie prefers a direct, conversational way of working. She encourages clients to name feelings and to notice the patterns that repeat in their close relationships. Sessions focus on what is happening between people, and on feelings that are hard to put into words. Katie uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at attachment and emotional responses, alongside Client-Centred and trauma-focused approaches when helpful.

In practice she offers space to talk through immediate worries and to build new ways of responding to stress. She pays attention to how people connect and disconnect, and helps them try small changes in how they speak and listen. Work can include practical communication skills, looking at past hurt, and finding ways to reduce ongoing overwhelm.

Katie aims to make the process straightforward. She will discuss what to focus on in early sessions and set simple goals with each person. The emphasis is on clear steps rather than abstract theory, and on checking progress as therapy continues.

Sessions are conducted in English. International clients can be seen, and session arrangements are confirmed when booking. To start, prospective clients use the online matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How Katie uses EFT and related approaches online

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on emotions and attachment in relationships. It helps people notice interaction patterns and the feelings that drive them, which can be useful for couples and for people wanting clearer emotional expression. Client-Centred Therapy concentrates on listening without judgement and following the person's pace, supporting people to find their own solutions. Trauma-Focused Therapy looks at the effects of past hurt and offers ways to process traumatic memories and reduce ongoing stress.

Finding the right approach is part of working together. Katie will discuss options in early sessions and decide with each client which methods to use based on their needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process rather than a fixed prescription, and adjustments are made as therapy progresses.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available online options when booking. Many people choose remote sessions because they fit into busy days, reduce travel time and make it easier to keep appointments around work or family commitments. Remote work can also allow shorter check-ins when needed, and make it simpler to involve different household members at agreed times. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often find online sessions a practical way to maintain regular contact and steady progress.
