About Catherine
Catherine Bezzant is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with nine years of experience. She works with people dealing with depression, anxiety, grief and loss, and addiction. Catherine aims to create a respectful, sensitive space where people can begin to talk about hard things.
She focuses on tailoring conversations and plans to each person's needs. Sessions are practical and grounded, with attention to feelings and past experiences that matter now.
Background and approach
Catherine uses listening and reflective questions to help people make sense of difficult patterns. Her approach draws on attachment ideas and psychodynamic thinking to look at how past relationships shape current reactions. She also uses client-centred principles to keep the person’s priorities central.
Mindfulness and existential perspectives help when people are wrestling with meaning, values, or persistent worry. Catherine has supported people coping with trauma, eating concerns, parenting strain, and compassion fatigue. She also helps with issues such as abandonment, body image, chronic illness, and caregiving stress.
Her work often looks at how relationships and life events link to mood and behaviour. Catherine invites people to take small steps and meet at a pace that feels manageable. She encourages honest conversation and clear goals.
If someone is unsure where to start, she will help map out initial priorities and next steps.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Catherine will talk through what matters to the person, try different ways of working, and decide together what fits best. This collaborative process helps shape goals and the methods used in sessions.
Online therapy offers practical benefits such as easier scheduling and fewer travel demands. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can suit lower bandwidth or times without being on camera, and live chat or text messaging can be useful for shorter check-ins or when typing feels easier. These options make it simpler to keep therapy going around work, caregiving and other commitments.
