About Katie
Katie Lohan helps people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting strains, and changes in life. She supports people dealing with relationship and intimacy concerns, body image and eating issues, sleep problems, anger, low self-esteem, career questions, mood disorders and ADHD. Katie uses a respectful, compassionate style in her work and invites clients to lead the pace of their sessions.
She trained and practices using client-centred therapy, which means she follows the person in the room and listens without judgement.
Background and approach
She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to offer practical ways of looking at thoughts and behaviours. Sessions focus on what matters to each person and on small steps that fit into daily life. Katie holds BACP accreditation, which she lists as her professional credential, and she has three years of professional experience.
She works from the United Kingdom and runs sessions in English. International clients are not currently accepted. People who come to Katie can expect a steady, non-pressured approach.
She aims to help clients notice their own resources and build on them over time. Conversations explore feelings, patterns and options so people can make changes that suit their life. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions based on available times.
The service uses a subscription that can be cancelled at any time, and fees vary with location and therapist availability.

Approaches Katie lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
How Katie works online
She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help clients spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try different responses. CBT can be practical for anxiety, depression, sleep and some eating concerns. Alongside these, her client-centred approach means she follows the person's lead, offering listening and empathy while clients set the pace.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Katie will discuss your goals and preferences and together you will try methods that fit your needs. This collaborative decision-making helps shape sessions so they stay relevant and manageable.
If you are interested in online sessions, confirm the exact session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online work can make therapy easier to fit into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people work with a registered or accredited professional from their local area while choosing an approach that suits their goals.
