About Catherine
Catherine Robinson is a counsellor who blends person-centred work with practical techniques from cognitive behavioural approaches. She holds NCPS and brings 18 years of experience supporting people through a wide range of concerns. She is approachable and aims to help people talk through what is worrying them and find clearer ways forward.
Her sessions focus on building a trusting relationship first. She listens without judgement and helps people identify patterns that keep them stuck. Practical tools are used alongside empathic listening to manage symptoms such as anxiety, depression and sleep difficulties.
Catherine has worked with people facing trauma, relationship strain, addiction and long-term health challenges. She also supports those dealing with grief, compassion fatigue and problems with self-esteem. Her background includes helping clients who identify as LGBT and people managing ADHD and bipolar mood issues.
Her approach is flexible and collaborative. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based ideas, Client-Centred methods, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy where they suit the person. Sessions are shaped around each person’s goals and daily life.
Catherine understands that many people juggle work and family, so she offers a variety of appointment times. She encourages people to begin by describing what is happening for them now, so together they can decide what to prioritise and how to move forward.
How chosen approaches can work in online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on what matters to them. It uses small exercises to build commitment to chosen values and coping strategies. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical techniques to reduce symptoms such as worry or sleep disruption.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss what you want to achieve and then suggest ways of working together. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as goals and needs become clearer.
Please confirm which session formats are available before booking since the biography does not list specific delivery methods. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by avoiding travel, allowing evening or weekend appointments, or enabling shorter check-ins when time is tight. Talk with the counsellor about timing and how sessions can be arranged to suit your daily routine.
