About Kathryn

Kathryn Partt is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with five years of professional experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, and coping with major life changes. Kathryn also lists support for relationship and intimacy-related issues, self-esteem, parenting concerns, career and ADHD among her areas of work.

Kathryn describes herself as an integrative therapist, which means she draws on several approaches to match the needs of each person. She often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. Attachment-based and client-centred ideas also shape how she listens and responds in sessions.

In practice she aims to make time for what matters most to the client. Sessions focus on clear, practical steps and on talking through difficult feelings so they feel more manageable. She has particular experience supporting people through bereavement and trauma related difficulties.

People who consult her often bring issues such as sleep problems, compassion fatigue, body image and chronic illness or pain. Kathryn also works with concerns linked to abandonment, attachment issues, codependency and separation. She helps with communication problems and commitment or relationship doubt.

Her background and approach combine short-term, structured tools with space for deeper personal meaning and emotion. To begin, the usual route is to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session so assessment and goals can be agreed.

How Kathryn’s approaches translate to online work

Kathryn blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with attachment-based and client-centred methods. CBT involves identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small changes in thinking and behaviour to reduce anxiety or low mood. Attachment-based work explores patterns of relating that affect trust and closeness, which can help with relationship and intimacy-related concerns. Client-centred therapy prioritises the person’s own views and pace, offering time to talk through feelings and priorities.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Kathryn will discuss your goals and preferences in the first sessions and suggest which methods to try. Together you can adjust the balance of practical CBT tools and deeper attachment or person-centred work as progress is reviewed.

Session formats are not specified in the supplied biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work and family life, reduce travel, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also gives flexibility for pacing the work so practical steps and reflections fit into everyday routines.
