About Catherine
Catherine Robinson is a person-centred counsellor with 18 years of experience. She works with people who are feeling overwhelmed, anxious or depressed and helps them find clearer ways forward. Catherine combines a warm, straightforward style with practical tools so conversations lead to change.
She trained as a counsellor and holds the NCPS credential. Her work has covered a wide range of concerns, such as anxiety, relationship and intimacy issues, trauma and abuse, addiction, ADHD and grief.
Background and approach
She also supports people facing life changes, chronic illness, caring responsibilities and workplace stress. Catherine blends person-centred listening with elements of cognitive behavioural approaches and skills-based strategies. Sessions focus on what matters most to the person in front of her, with room to explore thoughts, feelings and behaviour and to practise manageable steps between meetings.
Her style is non-judgemental, patient and direct. She offers evening and weekend slots to fit around busy schedules and values clear, practical planning alongside emotional support. People who want a calm space to talk through difficult decisions often find this helpful.
Catherine encourages people to describe what they are experiencing and what they hope to change. Together she and the client look at realistic options and small routines that can reduce distress. She aims to help people feel steadier, more able to cope and clearer about next steps.

Online support
Choosing the right approach happens together. The therapist will listen to the person's goals and try different methods to see what fits. Sessions evolve from that collaboration, so techniques are adjusted to suit changing needs and preferences.
Online formats offer flexibility and different ways to work. Video calls allow a conversational session close to face to face. Phone sessions are a good option when bandwidth is limited or a quicker check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer writing, want brief check-ins, or need support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit counselling around work, caring duties and travel, while keeping a consistent therapeutic process.
