Catherine Bezzant is a counsellor with nine years of experience working in the United Kingdom. She meets people where they are and focuses on respectful, sensitive care. She encourages a straightforward conversation about what is worrying you and works with clients to find manageable next steps.
She supports people dealing with addictions, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, depression and anxiety. She also helps with stress, eating concerns, parenting strain, and coping with life changes.
Background and approach
Compassion fatigue is another area she understands and addresses. Catherine draws on approaches that look at relationships, personal meaning, and present-moment awareness. That means she pays attention to how past attachments shape current feelings, listens closely to each person's story, and uses mindful practices to reduce overwhelm.
She adapts the pace and focus to the individual rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan. Her wider interests include issues such as abandonment, adoption and foster care, attachment difficulties, body image, chronic illness and pain, caregiver stress, and communication problems. Catherine also works with people facing cancer, ageing concerns, blended family challenges, and codependency issues.
Sessions are conversational and practical. Catherine helps people identify small, concrete changes they can try between meetings. She invites honest feedback so the plan can change if something is not helpful.
Therapeutic approaches you can access online
Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationship patterns shape current emotions and behaviour. In sessions the counsellor helps people notice repeated relationship patterns, understand how they affect day-to-day life, and practise new ways of relating to others and to themselves.Client-centred therapy places the person's experience at the heart of every session. The counsellor listens without judgement, reflects what they hear, and supports people to find their own solutions and make decisions that fit their values.
Existential ideas are used to look at meaning, choice and identity when life feels uncertain or overwhelming. These conversations help people clarify what matters to them and consider practical steps that align with those values.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options with each person and agree on the focus together, adjusting methods as needs, goals and preferences change over time.
Online therapy offers flexibility and practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when a fuller interaction is helpful. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a busy day. Live chat and text-based messaging suit quick check-ins, shorter reflections, or times when typing feels more comfortable. These options make it easier to keep momentum and access help from different locations.
