About Katie

Katie Lohan offers practical support for common and distressing problems. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, parenting strains, and relationship or intimacy-related concerns. Katie also works with issues around self-esteem, eating and sleeping difficulties, ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, and coping with life changes.

She uses a person-centred approach that lets the client lead sessions while she follows and reflects. This means conversations focus on the person’s own goals and strengths rather than a therapist directing every step. Katie aims to create a calm space where people can talk through feelings and make sense of what matters to them.

Katie draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people clarify values and take steps that matter, and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which looks at thoughts, feelings and behaviours to find small changes that make life easier. These methods are used alongside the person-centred way of working rather than replacing it.

She has three years of professional experience and holds BACP registration, which is noted as her credential. Katie practises in the United Kingdom and conducts sessions in English.

Her style is warm and respectful. She listens without judgement and helps people find their own solutions. If someone is unsure where to start, Katie encourages a short conversation to match on goals and practical next steps.

How Katie’s approaches translate to online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person leading the conversation while the counsellor listens with empathy and respect. It helps when someone needs space to make sense of feelings and to find their own way forward. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice what matters most to them and take small, values-driven steps even when emotions are hard. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical strategies to reduce distress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Katie will work with each person to decide which methods feel most useful. That discussion is collaborative and can change over time as goals and needs become clearer.

For practicalities, the reader should confirm current session options before booking as formats are not specified here. Online counselling can help fit therapy into busy lives by removing travel time and allowing sessions during a lunch break or after work. It can also make shorter check-ins easier when that suits someone better, or avoid the need to be on camera if that feels uncomfortable. These practical advantages make it simpler to keep therapy consistent while working around everyday commitments.
