Katie Bifulco offers a warm, person-centred approach to therapy. She focuses on listening and helping people find clearer steps when life feels hard. Katie presents herself simply and directly so people can decide if she feels like a good fit for them.

She uses the person-centred model to create space for honest conversation. That approach puts the client’s experience at the centre and aims to help people feel heard. Katie also draws on Dialectical Behaviour Therapy - DBT - and psychodynamic ideas when these fit the issue being discussed.

Background and approach

Her work covers a wide range of concerns. These include stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, ADHD and bipolar issues. She also supports people dealing with grief, parenting pressures, relationship tensions, career changes and major life transitions like retirement or redundancy.

Katie has five years' experience in independent practice and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - BACP. She notes particular experience with fertility and pregnancy-related difficulties, baby loss, post-natal depression and some work with autistic spectrum and ADHD presentations. Sessions aim to be straightforward and goal-focused when helpful.

Katie will listen, reflect back what she hears and support people to identify small, practical steps. The style is gentle but purposeful, suited to those who want a conversational and personal way to work through problems.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on hearing the person without judgement and helping them find their own solutions; it works well for anxiety, low mood, grief and life transitions by giving space to reflect. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy - DBT - teaches practical skills for managing intense emotions and building coping strategies, which can be useful for stress, anger and emotional regulation issues.

Katie sees finding the right approach as a joint task. She will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then suggest ways of working that fit those aims. That shared decision-making means the method can change over time as needs evolve.

Online work uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video lets conversations feel closer to face to face, while phone calls need less bandwidth and can fit into a busy day. Live chat or text messaging can be used for shorter check-ins, ongoing reflections or when someone prefers writing. These options help people keep therapy going around work, caregiving or geographical distance.
