Katie Robinson, BACP

Katie Robinson is a counsellor with four years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP accreditation and focuses on helping people who are struggling with relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, and intimacy-related issues. Katie aims to make the first step into therapy feel manageable and supportive. She works in a warm, non-judgemental way so people can speak openly about difficult feelings. Sessions tend to be simple and direct, centring on what matters most to the person in front of her. Katie helps clients name their concerns and set practical goals they can work towards between sessions. Katie draws on approaches that support emotional connection and healing. She uses Client-Centred techniques to follow the client’s lead and create a collaborative space. She also integrates Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas to help people understand and shift patterns in close relationships. For people affected by traumatic experiences, Katie includes Trauma-Focused strategies to carefully address distress and its impact on everyday life. She gives attention to related struggles such as guilt, shame, post-traumatic stress symptoms and compassion fatigue. Beyond symptom work, Katie helps people with communication problems, forgiveness, self-love and finding a clearer sense of life purpose. Her style is practical and calm, aiming to make change feel achievable one step at a time.

How Katie’s approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy places the client’s experience at the heart of the work and focuses on listening, reflecting and helping people make their own choices. This approach helps with feeling heard and understood when exploring relationship hurts or questions about self-worth.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at patterns in close relationships and the emotions that drive those patterns. It helps people recognise recurring interaction cycles and work towards more secure emotional connection, which can be especially useful for intimacy-related concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Katie will work collaboratively to identify which methods suit a person’s goals and preferences. She adapts her style over time, checking in about what is helping and what could change so the work stays practical and relevant.

Online sessions offer flexibility with video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is useful when visual connection matters, phone can be easier when bandwidth is low, live chat works for quick check-ins and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments while still addressing relationships, trauma and emotional needs.
