About Kate
Kate Mollison is a BACP-registered therapist with 24 years of counselling experience across settings such as the NHS, employee assistance programmes and private practice. She draws on a mix of approaches to help people manage anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, trauma, grief and the impact of illness. Kate aims to meet each person where they are and to work at a pace that feels right for them.
Her practice uses an integrated style rather than a single method. She values a person-centred relationship that is accepting and non-judgemental. That foundation sits alongside practical tools from cognitive behavioural therapy, and mindfulness and breathing techniques to help with emotional regulation.
Kate also includes compassion-focused ideas to address harsh self-criticism and to encourage kinder self-talk. She has experience delivering solution-focused work in workplace settings and CBT in health services, so sessions can include short-term practical steps as well as deeper reflection when needed. Her aim is to avoid one-size-fits-all solutions and to tailor the work to each person’s life and history.
Based in Glasgow, Scotland, she has lived and worked in multiple countries and brings that cultural curiosity into her practice. She reads widely, attends courses and keeps up with developments to broaden her skills. Kate’s approach is collaborative - she and the client decide together what helps best.
People seeking help with money and financial issues will find Kate able to talk through related stress, career pressures and life changes, and to work on coping strategies and clearer decision-making.
How Kate’s approaches translate to online work
Client-centred work focuses on building a respectful, non-judgemental relationship. Online sessions still centre on listening, being curious about a person's history and helping people feel heard, which can open space for change. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) offers a clear framework and practical tools such as thought records and behaviour experiments to tackle worry, mood or unhelpful patterns. Delivered remotely, these tools can be explained, practised and reviewed between sessions. Mindfulness therapy uses simple breathing and grounding techniques to reduce reactivity and improve focus; these can be taught and guided in-session and rehearsed at home.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the person about their goals, preferences and day-to-day life, and will adapt methods as the work progresses. That means sessions can shift between practical short-term steps and deeper exploration when needed.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm which online options are available before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring duties and travel, reduce time spent commuting, or choose sessions that suit energy levels on a given day. It also allows follow-up between appointments through agreed routines and exercises, helping people apply what they learn to real-world situations.
