Katie Lane offers a practical, person-centred approach to therapy that focuses on what matters to the individual. She uses client-centred methods alongside cognitive-behavioural and psychodynamic ideas to help people talk through current problems and underlying patterns. Katie holds an NCPS credential and brings five years of professional experience in mental health and wellbeing.

She has worked extensively in educational settings and runs a independent practice. That background means she is used to helping people with LGBT concerns, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and questions about gender dysphoria.

Background and approach

She also supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, and difficulties with self-esteem and motivation. Katie works with a wide range of additional issues, such as addictions, trauma and abuse, sleeping problems, chronic illness and pain, caregiver stress, and challenges after separation or divorce.

She can also assist with career pressure, communication problems, infidelity, and concerns linked to kink and alternative sex culture. In sessions she aims to listen without judgement and tailor conversation and plans to each person’s needs. Practical tools from cognitive-behavioural therapy sit alongside a focus on personal history and relational patterns from psychodynamic work.

Solution-focused ideas are used when clients want time-limited, goal-oriented support. Therapy is offered in English in the United Kingdom. Katie describes the first step as a discussion to clarify goals, then shaping a plan that fits the client’s situation and preferences.

Therapeutic approaches for online counselling

Client-centred therapy places the person at the heart of sessions, emphasising listening, acceptance and helping people find their own solutions. It can be especially helpful for issues around identity, relationships and building self-worth.

Cognitive-behavioural therapy focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical steps to change unhelpful patterns. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, stress and sleep problems and can provide tools people use between sessions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Katie will talk through goals, preferences and what has or hasn't helped before, and then agree which methods to try. That decision is collaborative and can be adjusted as therapy progresses.

Online formats such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, chat suits shorter check-ins and messaging lets people reflect in writing between meetings. These options offer flexibility and help people find a way of working that fits their routine and needs.
