About Katy
Katy Yeates is a UK counsellor with seven years of experience supporting adults. She works with stress, anxiety, low mood, grief, relationship concerns and major life changes. Katy also helps with confidence challenges, addiction-related issues and sleep or eating difficulties.
Katy uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Sessions can include time to talk through feelings, practical strategies for day-to-day coping, and steps to manage particular problems. She adapts the focus to what the client needs in each session.
Her style is client-centred and attachment-aware, aiming to help people recognise patterns in their emotions and connections. That can mean looking at how past relationships shape current reactions, and trying different ways of responding. Practical exercises and short-term goal work are used when useful.
Katy supports people dealing with parenting strain, career uncertainty, compassion fatigue and the challenges of adoption and foster care. She also works with those affected by chronic illness, dissociation, domestic violence histories and body-image concerns. Sessions may address communication difficulties and decision points like separation or divorce.
Sessions are offered in English and reflect Katy’s background in working with a broad range of life stressors. She holds the NCPS credential and practices in the United Kingdom. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.
How Katy uses different approaches in online work
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on emotions and relationship patterns. It helps people name hard-to-reach feelings and notice how those feelings shape responses in close relationships or personal habits.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) looks at values and practical actions. It supports people to accept difficult thoughts while taking steps that matter to them, which can help with anxiety, mood and life changes.
Attachment-Based ideas are used to explore how early connections influence current reactions. This can help with communication problems, confidence and repeated relationship patterns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Katy will discuss options with each client and decide together which methods match their needs, goals and preferences. The process is collaborative and reviewed as therapy progresses.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists commonly use online work to support consistent weekly sessions or focused goal-based blocks, depending on what a client prefers.
