About Kay
Kay Cohen welcomes people who are ready to make changes but feel unsure where to begin. She speaks plainly and listens carefully, offering a calm, respectful space to talk about things like anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain and addictive behaviours. Her first aim is to help clients feel heard and understood so they can begin finding practical ways forward.
With ten years of experience, Kay adapts conversations and plans to each person’s needs.
Background and approach
She draws on approaches that look at attachment patterns, emotions in relationships and the person’s wider life meaning. Sessions focus on understanding what drives current struggles and on building skills to manage them day to day. Kay works with a broad range of concerns including stress, trauma and abuse, intimacy issues, eating and process addictions, ADHD, bipolar concerns and low self‑esteem.
She also supports people coping with loneliness, guilt, forgiveness, infidelity and questions about life purpose. Her style is direct but compassionate, aiming to make change feel possible rather than overwhelming. People who prefer a collaborative, exploratory process tend to find her approach helpful.
She aims to tailor the pace and focus to each person’s goals, whether that means short‑term problem solving or deeper work on patterns that repeat across relationships. If you decide to start, Kay asks for some basic information and a short questionnaire to match needs and plan next steps. From there she helps schedule sessions in line with your availability.

How Kay works online
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Kay will discuss different ways of working and agree a plan based on your needs, goals and preferences. The process is collaborative, with adjustments made if something isn’t helping.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel and letting people join from wherever they are. It can also allow shorter check‑ins when schedules are tight, or sessions that focus on talking rather than paperwork. The original biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the available options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt these approaches to an online setting and help you find what works best for your situation.
