Kate Jarvis, NCPS

Kate Jarvis is a counsellor with four years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety or low mood. She also supports those facing relationship strain, grief, parenting pressures and struggles with self-esteem and motivation.

Kate believes each person knows their own story best. She focuses on listening closely and helping clients spot their own strengths. Sessions are aimed at making those strengths useful when life feels hard or confusing.

Her practice is grounded in Client-Centred Therapy, which puts the client's experience at the heart of every conversation. The therapist follows the pace set by the client and offers gentle guidance rather than directives. This approach can suit people dealing with loss, trauma, addiction concerns and major life changes.

Kate has worked with a wide range of issues including sleep problems, anger, career pressures and chronic health challenges. She also pays attention to more specific concerns such as attachment and abandonment, codependency, dissociation and communication difficulties.

People who choose Kate can expect calm, straightforward sessions that aim to build confidence and practical coping skills. She encourages small steps and realistic goals so progress is manageable. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange sessions according to the therapist's schedule.

Client-centred support and online counselling options

Client-Centred Therapy places the client's experience first, with the counsellor listening closely and following the person's pace. This approach helps people feel heard and can be useful for anxiety, low mood, relationship worries and grief.

The therapist aims to help clients notice their strengths and use those strengths to manage difficult moments. In practice this means conversations that encourage self-understanding and practical steps you can try between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kate will collaborate with each person to decide what feels most helpful, adjusting the way sessions run to match goals and preferences. That choice is made together rather than imposed by the counsellor.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling around work, childcare and travel, reduce commute time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can offer online sessions that focus on the same therapeutic tasks as face-to-face work, so practical progress and emotional support are still the aim.
