About Katy
Katy Yeates is a UK counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, low mood, grief and relationship problems. She also supports adults dealing with overwhelm, confidence struggles, addictions and big life changes. Katy has seven years of experience and works to create a calm, compassionate space for every session.
Her style is warm and steady. She can offer time to talk things through, practical tools to manage emotions, or clear steps to move forward. Sessions are shaped around what each person needs that week rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.
Katy draws on several well-known approaches to structure her work. She uses elements from cognitive behavioural therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and make values-based choices. Attachment-based ideas and client-centred ways of working help her focus on the relationship in the room and the person’s own experience.
People come to Katy with many concerns beyond common mood problems, including parenting strain, sleep and eating difficulties, ADHD, chronic illness and career uncertainty. She also supports those affected by trauma, domestic violence, separation and adoption or foster care issues.
Katy holds the NCPS credential and practises in the United Kingdom. She offers therapy in English and does not currently work with international clients. Starting normally involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first appointment.
How Katy uses evidence-based approaches online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It is often useful for anxiety, low mood and coping with big life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking and behaviours and testing small changes to see what helps; it can be helpful for anxiety, depression and sleep or eating concerns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Katy will discuss different methods with each person and agree a plan together. She aims to match techniques to what feels useful and realistic for the client’s goals and day-to-day life.
Please confirm available session formats before booking, as specific online or phone options are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow brief check-ins when a full in-person visit is difficult. It can also make some practical interventions and tools easier to use between meetings, helping people apply skills in their everyday routines.
