About Katie
Katie Bifulco is a counsellor and an Accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has five years' experience working in private practice in the United Kingdom. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, anger and life transitions such as redundancy, illness or retirement.
Katie works from a person-centred approach that focuses on listening and understanding what matters to each person. She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills, psychodynamic ideas and solution-focused techniques when these fit the work. Sessions aim to be practical and direct, with space to talk through immediate problems and patterns that repeat over time.
She has supported people through grief, pregnancy-related loss, post-natal difficulties and issues around fertility. Katie also has experience with clients on the autistic spectrum, people with ADHD and those navigating menopause-related challenges. Relationship concerns, communication problems and parenting strain are part of her caseload.
Her practice includes work with complex emotional states such as bipolar mood challenges, trauma and compassion fatigue. She helps people who feel stuck, struggle with self-esteem or face career-related uncertainty. Katie uses brief solution-focused conversations alongside longer therapeutic reflection when needed.
Sessions are conversational and down-to-earth. Katie encourages clear goals and practical skills alongside attention to past patterns that influence current reactions. To start, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.
How sessions work
How Katie Uses Different Approaches Online
Katie blends person-centred work with DBT skills and solution-focused techniques to address present problems and long-standing patterns. Person-centred therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the client, helping people clarify feelings and priorities. DBT skills offer concrete strategies for emotion regulation, distress tolerance and improving interpersonal interactions when anger or intense feelings arise. Solution-focused work concentrates on small, practical steps and immediate actions to reduce stress and improve functioning.Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. Katie will discuss goals and preferences during the early sessions and try different ways of working to see what helps most. The emphasis is on clear goals, small skills to try between sessions and reviewing progress together.
The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm available session types before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example a shorter check-in during a lunch break, using audio-only when bandwidth is limited, or scheduling sessions across different time zones. Registered or accredited professionals can help adapt the chosen approach to the realities of remote work, keeping sessions focused and practical.
