About Kate Anderson
Kate Anderson is a BACP-accredited integrative counsellor who supports people experiencing low mood, anxiety, relationship difficulties and a sense that life lacks meaning or flourishing. She provides a thoughtful and compassionate space where individuals can explore feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or aware that something in their life or relationships needs to change, working at a pace that feels manageable for them.
Working integratively, she draws on different therapeutic approaches and adapts them to the needs of each person, using reflective practice to tailor the process. A central part of her work is helping people to understand themselves within the context of past experiences and formative relationships, and to recognise how those patterns continue to shape current reactions and choices. For some this means noticing how family roles - such as being the carer who puts others first - make it difficult to ask for support.
Her depth work is informed by person-centred principles together with Internal Family Systems and inner child work, approaches that encourage curiosity toward internal parts and foster integration and emotional steadiness. Alongside this she explores the relationship between thoughts, feelings and behaviours, weaving mindfulness with ideas from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to build greater calm, clarity and self-trust.
She also explores personality, strengths, values, vocation and relational needs, addressing themes like assertiveness, boundaries and attachment patterns so people can more fully express their authentic selves. Her aim is to offer a warm, reflective and supportive environment where insight and emotional understanding support meaningful, lasting change over time.

Therapeutic approaches and flexible online support
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and learn practical ways to act in line with those values even when difficult thoughts or feelings arise. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and situations where avoidance has become limiting.Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns that developed in early relationships and how they influence current connections. It helps people understand attachment styles, improve communication and build more secure ways of relating in close relationships.
Client-Centred Therapy prioritises the person as the expert in their own life, offering an accepting, empathetic environment that supports self-discovery and emotional growth. This approach can be especially helpful when someone is exploring identity, values or a need for greater self-trust.
Finding the right approach is part of the process, and the therapist will work collaboratively with each person to determine which methods suit their needs, goals and preferences. Licensed professionals aim to adapt techniques as the work unfolds so therapy remains relevant and practical.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call or phone, and many people use live chat or text-based messaging for shorter or more frequent check-ins. This range of options makes it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to access support across different locations, while keeping the focus on meaningful, effective therapeutic work.
