About Katy
Katy Yeates is a UK counsellor who supports adults with anxiety, stress, low mood and relationship concerns. She also helps people facing grief, confidence struggles, addictions and major life changes. Katy writes plainly and listens closely, aiming to make the first steps feel manageable.
Her style is warm, calm and compassionate. Sessions are tailored to what each person needs in that moment. Sometimes that means space to talk and be heard.
Background and approach
Other times it means simple tools to manage feelings or clear steps to move forward. Katy combines a few practical approaches to suit different problems. She uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centred ways of working to help people notice patterns and try new responses.
Hypnotherapy is also part of her practice and may be considered when appropriate. She focuses on helping people regain steadiness and a sense of control. That can mean reducing overwhelm, improving sleep, or finding better ways to cope with change.
Katy aims for short, achievable goals rather than complex plans. With seven years of experience and an NCPS credential, she brings steady support for common and complex difficulties. Sessions are offered in English and are organised to fit people’s lives and schedules.
Beginning with a simple conversation, Katy helps people map a realistic way forward. She keeps the work focused and practical while staying attuned to each person’s needs.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches and online support
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without letting them dictate actions. It often focuses on values and small steps so someone can act in ways that matter despite hard emotions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, low mood and sleep problems. Hypnotherapy is also part of Katy's practice; in plain terms it can support relaxation, focus and accessing helpful mental images to aid change.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Katy treats this as a collaborative process and will help people try different methods to see what fits their needs, goals and preferences. Sessions uncover what helps most and adjust pace and tools over time.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls are good for a fuller conversation and visual connection. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or when a quicker check‑in suits. Live chat and text‑based messaging can be useful for shorter conversations, ongoing support or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life and to continue progress between sessions.
