Kate Wilson, NCPS

Kate Wilson practices with a warm, open style that aims to help people through hard moments. She combines talking therapy and hypnotherapy to support people facing anxiety, grief, low self-esteem and life changes. Kate holds the NCPS credential and brings ten years of clinical experience to her work in the United Kingdom.

Her background is in psychology, with a BA (Hons) from the University of Liverpool and an MSc in Social Psychology from the London School of Economics. Before training as a psychotherapist she worked as a research psychologist at LSE. She also offers clinical supervision to other therapists.

In practice she uses a mix of approaches to suit each person. That can include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), client-centred work, mindfulness techniques and hypnotherapy. Sessions focus on practical steps, clearer thinking and building day-to-day coping skills.

Kate has specialist experience with anxiety and bereavement, including roles with Anxiety UK and Cruse. She also helps with confidence and self-esteem, and works with a wide range of concerns such as relationships, addictions, eating and sleeping difficulties, parenting stress, career issues, and end-of-life matters.

Her way of working is collaborative and straightforward. She listens without judging, helps set realistic goals and uses methods that match what each person needs. To start, people choose the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to availability.

How Kate’s approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people live in line with their values while accepting difficult thoughts and feelings. It can be useful for anxiety, depression and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions interact and teaches skills to change unhelpful patterns, which helps with anxiety, depression and sleep problems. Client-Centred Therapy centres the person’s experience, offering reflective listening and empathy to build confidence and self-understanding.

Choosing the best approach is a shared task. The therapist will work with the client to try different methods and agree what feels most helpful. That might mean using ACT for values-based goals, CBT for practical skills work, or a mix of approaches when needs change over time.

Practical benefits of online therapy can include fitting sessions into a busy week, reducing travel time and making it easier to attend from different locations. Because session formats are not specified in the biography, please confirm current online or in-person options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt techniques such as mindfulness exercises, CBT worksheets or hypnotherapy-style relaxation to an online setting so the work matches everyday life and goals.
