About Katrina

Katrina Rodgers is a counsellor with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and 17 years of practice. She presents a warm, straightforward style and aims to help people work through stressful or painful times. Katrina often focuses on building strengths and practical coping skills so life feels more manageable.

Her approach is gentle but can be challenging when needed. Sessions are shaped around each person's needs and goals rather than a fixed formula. She uses a mix of talking, practical tools, and reflective work to help people notice what gets in the way of change and what helps them move forward.

Katrina has experience supporting people with stress, anxiety, depression and grief. She also works with issues such as addictions, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, intimacy-related problems, eating and sleeping difficulties, anger, and parenting strain. ADHD, compassion fatigue and coping with life changes are also within her focus.

She draws on a number of therapeutic approaches, including cognitive behavioural ideas, mindfulness and acceptance-based work, attachment-based thinking, emotionally-focused methods and a client-centred stance. This mix lets her adopt practical strategies while holding space for deeper, emotional material.

Sessions are delivered with respect, sensitivity and a sense of humour when appropriate. Katrina aims to tailor the pace and tasks to each person, helping them build on resilience and try small, achievable steps toward change. If someone prefers online work, she regards that as a viable option for many issues.

How therapeutic approaches work in online counselling

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, often called ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that align with their values. It emphasises flexible responses rather than trying to eliminate every difficult thought. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical strategies to reduce worry, low mood or sleep disruption. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns and can help with intimacy issues and how people relate to others.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Katrina will discuss what feels most useful and adapt techniques to suit each person's goals and preferences. That decision is collaborative and may shift as sessions progress.

The biography indicates online counselling can be effective for many issues, but it does not specify particular session formats. Before booking, confirm which formats are available and how they fit your routine. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also means tasks and exercises can be tried between sessions in everyday settings to support progress.
