About Kate
Kate Janach is a counsellor with four years of professional experience. She combines her background in general and mental health nursing with counselling work to support people facing hard moments. Kate is a registered member of the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP).
She offers a calm, non-judgemental space to talk through grief, relationship problems, stress and anxiety. Parents reading this will find practical, down-to-earth support for parenting concerns and for the day-to-day strains that come with caring roles.
Background and approach
Sessions aim to help people understand their reactions and decide what matters most to them. Kate describes her approach as integrative. That means she tailors how she works to each person rather than using one fixed method.
The focus is on building a trusting relationship and then choosing techniques that suit the individual’s needs and situation. Her nursing background means she is familiar with pressures in healthcare and with ongoing physical or long-term health issues. She also works with people dealing with trauma, addictions, low self-esteem, sleeping and eating difficulties, and compassion fatigue.
Additional areas of focus include attachment, blended family issues and coping after bereavement. Sessions are offered in English and can be arranged for people in the United Kingdom and internationally. Kate uses talk-based work to help clients set goals, notice small changes and find ways to cope between sessions.

Therapeutic techniques and how online therapy helps
Kate uses an integrative way of working that draws on evidence-based techniques chosen for each person's needs. One useful approach involves structured talking and practical strategies to manage stress and anxiety, helping people spot patterns and try small changes. Another focuses on grief and loss, offering space to process bereavement and find ways to adjust to life after change.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the client to decide which techniques feel most helpful. Goals, personal preferences and day-to-day demands guide those choices so therapy fits the person rather than the other way round.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different routines. Video calls let people read facial cues and have a fuller conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a quicker check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging suit short updates or people who prefer typing. These options can make it simpler to fit therapy around parenting, work or caring responsibilities while keeping continuity of support.
