About Kate

Kate Reeve is a counsellor who helps people feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, low mood, grief or stress. She supports those coping with trauma, relationship and parenting strains, addiction, sleep or eating problems, and issues connected to adoption and foster care. Sessions are offered in English and Polish and she works with clients in the United Kingdom and internationally.

She aims to help people spot the things that block their talents and make small changes that add up. Her style is warm and person-focused, listening first to understand what matters to each person. Conversations are practical and straightforward, geared to everyday life rather than clinical jargon.

Kate draws on a range of methods to match the person and the problem. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people live by their values, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for thinking and behaviour patterns, and Attachment-Based and Emotionally-Focused ways of working for relationship and bonding difficulties.

Her background includes nine years of practice and membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That registration is shown as BACP in her details.

Clients who are neurodivergent, coping with abandonment, or facing the aftermath of domestic violence are within her areas of focus. She describes growth as a gradual process and tends to work at a pace set by the person in front of her.

People who want to start can expect a collaborative approach that balances warm listening with targeted tools to make daily life more manageable.

How her approaches work in online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values, even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and dealing with life changes.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing patterns of behaviour. It works well for worry, stress, sleep problems and low mood by giving concrete strategies to try between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences, then suggest methods that fit the issue and the person's style. This is a collaborative process that can change as the work develops.

The original biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm current session options before booking. In general, online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, save travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also suit people who prefer to meet from a familiar location or who need flexible scheduling. Registered or accredited professionals, including those listing BACP, can offer online support but check the offered formats when arranging appointments.
