Kathryn (Kate) Bishop
Person-centred counsellor focused on practical change
About Kathryn
Kathryn (Kate) Bishop is a counsellor who brings six years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). Kate aims to create a respectful and compassionate space so people can begin to talk about what matters to them.
She helps people work through stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, and grief after loss. She also supports issues with self-esteem, depression, addiction, and sleep or eating problems.
Background and approach
Kate works with concerns such as relationship and intimacy-related issues, parenting strains, career stress, and burnout or compassion fatigue. Her approach is centred on the person in front of her. That means conversations are guided by each individual's needs, hopes, and pace.
Sessions focus on listening, reflecting, and helping clients spot practical steps they can try between meetings. Kate pays attention to how attachment, abandonment, and communication patterns shape everyday life. She has a particular interest in supporting people dealing with long-term illness, caregiving pressure, neurodiversity such as autism, and mood conditions including bipolar.
Work can also cover dissociation and coping after natural or human-caused disaster. Sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, with fees that vary by location and therapist availability.
To start, users complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to the therapist's timetable.

Sessions & fees
Person-centred therapy and online care
Client-centred therapy focuses on the individual's experience and aims to make sessions feel genuinely heard and respected. The therapist listens closely, mirrors what they hear, and helps people identify their own solutions; this approach can help with anxiety, low mood, relationship and identity concerns, and feelings stemming from trauma.Working online makes it possible to try a person-centred way of working without needing to travel. The therapist will work collaboratively to find the approach that fits your goals and preferences, checking in about what helps and adjusting the way you meet and the work you do together.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for a conversation that feels similar to face-to-face work, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for quick check-ins, live chat suits shorter exchanges, and text-based messaging lets people reflect in writing between meetings. These options provide flexibility for fitting therapy around work, caregiving, or busy schedules.
