Kate Janach draws on a background in general and mental health nursing to offer calm, practical support during difficult times. She is a member of the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP). Kate works online with people who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or facing big life changes.
She listens without judgement and helps people make sense of loss, relationship breakdowns, and trauma. Sessions aim to create a steady space to talk through emotions and everyday challenges such as anxiety, stress, sleep or eating difficulties, and problems with self-esteem.
Background and approach
Kate uses an integrative approach, choosing methods that suit each person rather than following one fixed style. That means sessions can include different ways of working depending on what feels most useful for the individual. The emphasis is on practical steps and clearer thinking, as well as understanding feelings and patterns.
Her nursing background gives extra insight into the pressures people in healthcare and caregiving roles face, and she also supports those dealing with chronic illness, bereavement, divorce, addiction, domestic violence, or trauma. Additional focus areas include attachment and abandonment issues, body image, cancer-related concerns, and ageing. Therapy typically begins with a conversation about what matters most to the person.
From there Kate and the client agree how to proceed, working at a pace that feels right. Sessions are offered in English and can be arranged to fit different schedules, including international clients.
How Kate’s approaches work online
Kate uses an integrative mix of evidence-based therapeutic techniques, chosen to fit the person and the issue. One common strand focuses on talking therapies that help identify unhelpful patterns in thoughts and behaviour and develop small practical steps to reduce anxiety, improve sleep, or manage cravings. This approach suits people wanting concrete tools alongside reflection.Another strand draws on trauma-informed ways of working that aim to stabilise overwhelming feelings and build safety in sessions. These methods help people who have experienced abuse, loss, or distressing events to regain a steadier sense of control and cope better day to day.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to review what helps, adjust methods as needed, and set goals together based on needs and preferences. This means therapy can change over time if different tools become more useful.
Online sessions can be delivered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video works well for a fuller conversation and visual cues, phone is useful when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins, and chat or messaging can suit people who prefer typing or need flexible timing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel while maintaining a regular place to meet with a registered professional.
