Kate Mollison is a counsellor with 24 years of experience in the United Kingdom. She uses a mix of approaches and draws on work across public services and independent practice. Kate aims to create a calm space where people can talk about stress, anxiety, grief or life changes in everyday language.

Kate has provided solution-focused support in employee assistance programmes and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy within NHS settings. In independent practice she uses mindfulness and compassion-focused ideas alongside other approaches.

Background and approach

This variety means she can adapt to what each person needs rather than applying one fixed method. Sessions are conversational and practical. Kate listens, helps identify unhelpful patterns of thought and behaviour, and works on small, manageable steps to change them.

She teaches simple breathing and mindfulness exercises that people can use between sessions. Her wider focus covers many concerns including trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, addiction, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting strain, eating and sleeping problems, and coping with illness or bereavement. She also supports people with neurodiversity-related needs and attachment or control issues.

Based in Glasgow, Scotland, Kate has lived and worked in several countries and brings that experience into her practice. She keeps up to date through reading, podcasts and ongoing training to offer helpful, practical support. The work is collaborative and paced to each person’s comfort and goals.

How Kate’s approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on building a warm, accepting relationship and listening without judgement. It helps people feel heard and gradually able to talk about difficult feelings and patterns. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) offers a clear framework and practical tools to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours; it works well for anxiety, depression and coping with life changes. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple breathing and attention exercises to help regulate emotions and reduce stress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Kate will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then adapt methods as sessions progress. The process is collaborative so people can try different techniques and keep what helps most.

Online therapy here can be delivered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and practising techniques together. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat and messaging are helpful for short check-ins, written reflections or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life and keep continuity between appointments.
