About Kate
Kate Wolsey is a counsellor registered with the National Counselling Society (NCPS) and has five years' experience. She works with adults on problems such as anxiety, depression, relationship strain, bereavement and anger. Sessions focus on helping people name what is hard and take manageable steps forward.
Her primary method is person-centred work, meaning the client’s concerns guide the pace and focus. She also draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns from the past and existential perspectives to help people face life changes and find meaning when things feel difficult.
In practice she listens for the patterns that keep repeating. She helps people talk through strong emotions, including resentment, sudden outbursts, and ongoing irritation that affects relationships or work. Conversations tend to be straightforward and paced to what the person can manage.
She has particular experience with grief and loss, and with issues that touch on attachment and abandonment. She also supports people dealing with family stress, parenting strain and the impact of trauma and abuse. Work may address how anger links with self-esteem, control issues, or communication problems.
Sessions are arranged through the online matching and scheduling process. Prospective clients complete a short questionnaire before booking a first session. Fees vary by location and use a cancellable subscription model.
How sessions work
How her approaches shape online sessions
Client-centred therapy places the person at the heart of the work, so sessions focus on what the client brings and move at their chosen pace. This helps with anger that feels overwhelming or hard to name because the counsellor follows the client’s lead and supports gradual change.Psychodynamic ideas look at patterns that repeat from earlier relationships and experiences. That can clarify why certain situations trigger strong reactions and help reduce those automatic responses over time. Existential work examines values and meaning when life changes feel destabilising, which can be useful when anger mixes with loss or a sense of life lacking direction.
Choosing an approach is collaborative. The counsellor will talk with the client about goals and preferences and then try ways of working that suit them. If something does not feel helpful, the approach can be adjusted during later sessions.
The therapist's biography does not specify session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around work or family commitments and lets people have shorter check-ins or sessions without travel. It also allows sessions when rearranging life or locating local services is difficult, and therapists and registered or accredited professionals generally use the online format to keep continuity of care.
