Catherine Robinson is a person-centred counsellor who blends practical talking therapy with structured techniques. She uses a warm, non-judgemental style and draws on cognitive behavioural tools when helpful. Catherine holds NCPS and has worked in counselling since 2007.
She offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. Her practice focuses on common and complex problems such as stress, anxiety, depression and trauma. She also helps people with relationship and intimacy concerns, addiction and issues around identity.
Background and approach
Additional areas include grief, sleep difficulties, anger, self-esteem and challenges linked to neurodiversity or chronic illness. Catherine combines person-centred listening with clear, goal-oriented methods. In a session she will listen first, then work with the person to try practical strategies that fit their life.
This might include breathing and grounding for anxiety, thought work for low mood, or skills to manage intense emotions. She aims to be flexible about appointment times to suit busy schedules and offers evenings and weekends where possible. Sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to match different needs and routines.
Starting therapy involves choosing the Start Therapy button, completing a short matching questionnaire, and then scheduling according to availability. Catherine frames therapy as a collaborative process and works alongside people to find what helps most in daily life.
How Catherine's approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without being led by them. It focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small, meaningful steps towards a life that matters to the person. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thinking and behaviour that keep problems going and introduces practical steps to change them. It is useful for anxiety, depression and sleep problems. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationships shape expectations and reactions now, and can help with relationship, intimacy and trust issues.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Catherine will listen to a person's goals and worries, then suggest which method or mix of methods could help. Together they will review what works and adjust the plan as therapy progresses to keep it useful and relevant.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video is good for a deeper face-to-face feel, phone works where bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a shorter check-in and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments while keeping the focus on practical support and progress.
