About Kate

Kate Woodall offers calm, practical support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief or low mood. She talks things through in a straightforward way and helps clients find small, manageable steps to feel steadier. Kate makes space for worries about self-esteem, life changes and work pressure so clients can sort priorities and make clearer choices.

She uses a person-centred approach that keeps the client’s experience at the heart of sessions.

Background and approach

Mindfulness practices are offered to help reduce rumination and bring attention back to the present. Motivational interviewing techniques are used to boost readiness for change and set realistic goals. Kate has six years’ experience working with people facing both physical and mental health challenges.

Her background includes bereavement counselling in a UK hospice setting, which informed her work with grief and loss. She also supports people managing chronic pain, illness and caregiver strain. Sessions are delivered in English and use formats such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text messaging.

Kate is registered with BACP and NCPS, which are listed as her credentials. Practical matters like scheduling are discussed early so clients know what to expect. She encourages simple, steady steps rather than sudden change.

Conversations are non-judgemental and paced to the individual. For many people this style helps to rebuild confidence and move through difficult moments one step at a time.

Sessions & fees

Approaches you can use online

Client-centred therapy focuses on the person’s own experience and priorities. The therapist listens without judgement, reflects what is said and helps the client find their own solutions; this works well for stress, low self-esteem and life changes.

Mindfulness therapy teaches simple exercises to bring attention back to the present moment. These practices reduce repetitive worry and can help with anxiety, depression and coping with loss.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences and day-to-day needs and then try methods that fit. Decisions about techniques and pace are made together so the work feels relevant and manageable.

Online sessions can be arranged as video calls, phone appointments, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be lighter on bandwidth and easier to fit into a break. Live chat and messaging suit brief check-ins, reflective writing or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to attend around work, care or health commitments.
