About Kate
Kate Wolsey is a counsellor who uses an existential outlook alongside person-centred and psychodynamic ideas. She is a registered member of the National Counselling Society, NCPS, and approaches sessions with calm and straightforward care. Kate aims to help people who are carrying loss, anxiety, depression or relationship strain.
She works in short, clear sessions where the person sets the pace. Conversations focus on what matters to the client now - their feelings, choices and the meaning they want to find.
Background and approach
Sessions are described in simple terms: a place to talk, to think things through, and to practice small changes. Kate has five years of practice with a variety of difficulties. She has particular experience supporting people through bereavement and loss, and with problems such as self-esteem, self-harm, and mood-related concerns.
Other areas she helps with include parenting pressures, career worries, and trauma-related issues. The therapeutic style is non-judgemental and centred on the client. Kate combines listening, reflection and gentle exploration of past patterns to help people understand their present reactions.
Work together tends to be practical rather than abstract, with steps agreed as you go. Sessions are offered in English and are available to clients in the United Kingdom and internationally. Kate welcomes people who want steady, compassionate support while they make changes in their life.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches and online access
Existential Therapy focuses on questions of meaning, choice and responsibility and can help when life changes feel overwhelming or direction feels unclear. Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the heart of the work, emphasising listening and pacing sessions around what the client brings. Psychodynamic Therapy looks at patterns from past experience to better understand present reactions and relationships.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss what feels most useful and will adapt methods as goals and needs emerge. That means the plan can change as you notice what helps and what does not, with choices made in partnership.
Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video suits longer, conversational work; phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited; live chat or messaging can fit quick check-ins or when writing feels more natural. These formats offer flexibility for busy days and for people who cannot travel to appointments.
