About Kate
Kate Fletcher helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship strain. She supports people coping with trauma, family problems, grief, self-esteem struggles and issues around intimacy. She also addresses eating and sleeping difficulties, anger, parenting pressures, ADHD and career-related stress.
Kate is based in the United Kingdom and has five years of professional experience. She holds BACP and NCPS credentials. Her approach is straightforward and conversational.
Sessions aim to be practical and grounded.
Background and approach
Kate tailors discussions and plans to each person’s situation rather than using a one-size-fits-all method. She emphasises respect, sensitivity and compassion in every meeting. Kate uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns.
She also draws on client-centred work, which focuses on what matters most to the individual in the room. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy techniques are used when helpful to tackle unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. These combined methods are chosen to suit the issue at hand.
People come to her for a wide range of concerns, including abandonment, attachment issues, body image, chronic illness and pain, codependency, communication problems and control issues. She also supports those dealing with dissociation, domestic violence, eating and food-related issues, family conflict, guilt and shame, isolation and jealousy.
Sessions are designed to help people make concrete changes, learn coping strategies and feel more in control. Kate aims to work collaboratively so clients leave with clear next steps and tools they can use between sessions.

How her approaches work online
Attachment-based work looks at how early bonds affect current relationships and emotional responses. Online sessions can help people notice patterns of connection and distance and try new ways of relating with guidance and reflection. Client-centred therapy focuses on the person’s own goals and feelings. In this approach the therapist follows the client’s lead, offering empathy and understanding so the client can explore what matters most and decide on next steps. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and replace them with more useful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression and problems like sleep or eating difficulties, with practical exercises that can be done between sessions. Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss aims, preferences and what has helped or not helped before, and then suggest a way forward together. Plans can change as progress is made and new needs appear. Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls are useful for fuller conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat or text messaging can suit brief check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring responsibilities and travel.| Session length | Typically 50 minutes |
