About Catherine

Catherine Robinson is a counsellor registered with NCPS and has 18 years of practice in the United Kingdom. She focuses on common difficulties such as anxiety, depression, stress and relationship concerns. She also works with people facing trauma, ADHD, addictions and issues around intimacy and self-esteem.

Catherine uses a person-centred approach alongside Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Sessions aim to notice unhelpful thoughts and try different ways of responding. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based work and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) when relevant.

Her sessions are practical and straightforward. She listens to what is happening now and helps people identify small, manageable steps to test in everyday life. Conversations typically cover thoughts, feelings and behaviours with an emphasis on what can change between sessions.

Catherine has worked with a wide range of concerns across her career, including grief, compassion fatigue, sleeping problems, anger and long-term health issues. She also supports people dealing with commitment and communication difficulties and those exploring identity or LGBT matters.

She offers flexible scheduling that can include evenings and weekends to fit busy lives. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and book a first session. The process is straightforward and designed to get practical work started quickly.

How Catherine combines practical approaches for online work

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people spot thinking patterns that keep problems going and then try small behavioural tests to change them. It is often used for anxiety, low mood and sleep problems and focuses on steps to try between sessions.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that reflect personal values. It can be useful for stress, chronic health issues and when people feel stuck taking meaningful action.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current ways of connecting and reacting. It can help with intimacy issues, attachment and communication problems.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and agree a plan together. That plan can change as sessions reveal what helps most.

Please confirm current session formats before booking, as the biography does not specify which online or in-person options are offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals often use these practical benefits to keep therapy manageable alongside everyday life.
