About Katie

Katie Lane offers warm, person-centred counselling rooted in practical approaches to change. She works in ways that let people talk about difficult topics simply and honestly. Her style aims to build confidence, reduce stress, and help with sleeping and relationship concerns. Katie holds NCPS and has five years' experience supporting people in the United Kingdom.

Katie draws on client-centred principles to make sessions feel respectful and non-judgemental. She pairs this with solution-focused strategies to set small, achievable goals. Cognitive behavioural ideas are used when unhelpful thoughts and routines get in the way of rest, mood, or relationships.

Her background includes leading mental health and wellbeing work in educational settings and running a private practice. That mix gives practical experience of real-life pressures and everyday routines that affect sleep, work and family life. Katie frames conversations around what is useful now rather than only on past events.

People come to Katie for help with anxiety, depression, stress, low self-esteem, intimacy and relationship difficulties, and addictions. She also supports those dealing with trauma, compassion fatigue, and life transitions. Additional focus areas include concerns linked to body image, chronic health conditions, and gender dysphoria.

Sessions are tailored to each person's needs and goals. Katie explains options clearly, helps set realistic steps, and reviews progress together. She encourages people to try small changes that can improve sleep, mood and day-to-day functioning.

How Katie integrates therapeutic approaches online

Client-centred therapy places the person and their priorities at the heart of each session. The therapist listens without judgement and helps clients describe what matters most, which can be useful for sleep problems and relationship worries.

Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, actions and feelings. In practice this means noticing thought patterns that disrupt sleep or mood and trying new behaviours to improve rest and daily routine.

Psychodynamic work explores patterns that repeat across relationships and life stages. It can help people understand why certain stresses or intimacy issues keep coming up and make different choices going forward.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Katie will discuss options with each person and together they will decide which methods match the client's goals, preferences and current needs. This collaborative process may shift over time as progress is reviewed.

Please confirm available session formats before booking because the profile does not list them. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments around work, childcare or daily routines, and can reduce travel time. Some formats also allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight or sessions without video if that feels more comfortable.
