About Katy
Katy Yeates is a UK counsellor with seven years of experience helping adults facing stress, anxiety, low mood and relationship problems. She works with people coping with grief, overwhelm, confidence struggles and big life changes. Her manner is warm and calm, which many find reassuring when things feel difficult.
Katy adapts each session to what a person needs that week. Sometimes that means offering space to talk and be heard.
Background and approach
Other times she suggests practical tools to manage feelings or clear steps to move forward. Her way of working focuses on what a person wants to change and how to get there. She draws on several approaches to help people build skills, notice patterns and try different ways of responding.
Sessions aim to be straightforward and relevant to everyday life. Katy also supports people with concerns such as sleep and eating difficulties, addiction and compassion fatigue. She pays attention to issues connected to adoption and foster care, autism spectrum concerns, chronic illness, and family dynamics that affect individual wellbeing.
Katy holds NCPS credentialing, which is shown as NCPS. To begin, people use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to the therapist's availability.

How Katy works online
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Katy will explore goals, preferences and what has helped before, and she will collaborate with each person to choose or adapt methods that fit their needs. This is a joint process, not a one-size-fits-all plan.
Practical benefits of online therapy often include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. Online work can make it easier to have shorter check-ins or to schedule appointments around work and family commitments. If you need clarity on which online formats are offered, confirm the session options before booking so you know what to expect.
