About Catherine
Catherine Cassells uses an integrative, person-centred approach to help people face stressful life moments and relationship strain. She combines practical talking therapy with focused techniques so clients can make realistic, manageable changes. Catherine works with adults on concerns such as anxiety, stress and parenting pressures, and aims to create calm, steady progress in therapy.
With three years' experience, she draws on methods from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Motivational Interviewing alongside a client-centred base.
Background and approach
Sessions are tailored to each person’s situation so conversations stay relevant and workable. The emphasis is on what matters most to the client and on small steps that add up. Catherine supports people dealing with family and relationship issues like communication problems, blended family stresses, divorce and separation.
She also helps with attachment and abandonment worries, caregiver strain and the emotional effects of chronic illness and pain. Practical life concerns such as money stress, midlife questions and issues around guilt or forgiveness are included. The counselling style favours listening and collaboration.
Catherine helps clients name patterns, try out new responses and practice coping strategies between sessions. She encourages honest, down-to-earth conversations that lead to clearer choices. Sessions are conducted in English and Catherine accepts international clients.
Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, people use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling.

How Catherine works online
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Catherine will talk with clients about what fits their needs and goals, and she mixes methods where helpful. This is a collaborative process so adjustments can be made as understanding grows and priorities change.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, reduce travel time and allow for quieter, focused conversations. It can also permit shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, or sessions without being on camera if that helps someone engage more comfortably. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt what they use in person to work well online, and the therapist will discuss practical arrangements when you start.
