About Kathryn

Kathryn Watts is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 13 years of experience. She holds BACP accreditation as a BACP Therapist and BACP Counsellor, and she aims to create a respectful and compassionate space for people to talk about hard things. Kathryn describes therapy as a collaborative process tailored to each person's needs.

She works with people facing stress and anxiety, persistent low mood, relationship difficulties and problems within family life.

Background and approach

Grief and loss are also areas she supports, along with a broad range of related concerns such as abandonment, adoption and foster care, attachment issues and blended family challenges. Her approach is grounded in Client-Centred Therapy, which places the person's experience at the centre of the work.

Sessions are framed around listening, reflecting and helping people make sense of their feelings and choices. Kathryn adapts the pace and focus to what each person brings to the room. Practical issues such as chronic illness, caregiving stress, body image and the emotional impact of cancer are within her stated focus.

She also works with people dealing with codependency, commitment worries, divorce and domestic violence aftermath and feelings of emptiness. Kathryn aims to support people who want to take steps towards change, offering empathetic guidance while encouraging personal agency. She asks people to consider the Start Therapy button to begin a short matching questionnaire and to schedule sessions according to therapist availability.

Sessions & fees

Client-Centred care and online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy places the person's experience at the heart of the work. It relies on attentive listening, reflection and acceptance to help people understand their feelings and make decisions that suit them. This approach can be helpful for anxiety, low mood, relationship concerns and coping with loss.

The counsellor creates space for the person to describe what matters most and the pair then shape the focus together. Deciding which approach to use is a joint process and Kathryn will work with each person to find what fits their goals and preferences.
