Katie Bifulco
Experienced person-centred counsellor with practical skills
About Katie
Katie Bifulco is a counsellor who draws on person-centred care to create a calm, respectful space for people to talk. She uses a down-to-earth style and listens without judgement. Katie aims to help people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure what to do next.
Her approach focuses on understanding the person, not just the problem. She brings elements of dialectical behaviour therapy to teach coping skills and emotional regulation. Psychodynamic ideas are used when looking at patterns from the past that affect today's choices.
Background and approach
Katie has five years' experience working in independent practice across a range of life concerns. She holds BACP, which is the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy membership noted in her qualifications. This background informs a practical, flexible way of working with clients.
Main concerns she addresses include stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression and concentration difficulties related to ADHD. She also focuses on grief, parenting strains, career shifts, compassion fatigue and coping with major life changes. Additional areas Katie works with include relationship and communication problems, body image, chronic illness and caregiver stress, blended family concerns, abandonment and attachment issues.
She also has experience supporting people through fertility, pregnancy-related loss, menopause worries and ageing issues. Sessions are offered in English and are available to people in the United Kingdom and internationally. Katie welcomes enquiries and will discuss practical next steps with anyone considering therapy.

Sessions & fees
Approach-led online therapy that fits your life
Client-centred therapy places the person at the heart of each session. It means the counsellor listens closely and follows the person’s pace, helping them find their own answers. Dialectical behaviour therapy, or DBT, adds practical tools for managing strong emotions and reducing overwhelm; it can help when anxiety, anger or impulsive reactions feel unmanageable.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will talk with the person about goals, preferences and challenges, and together they will decide whether to prioritise person-centred listening, DBT skills or psychodynamic exploration. This is a collaborative process that can change as needs shift.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls let people use visual cues and deeper conversation, while phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat and text messaging suit quick check-ins, ongoing support between sessions or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options aim to make it easier to keep therapy going around work, family and other commitments.
