About Kathryn

Kathryn Partt is an integrative therapist who blends different approaches to support people through grief, trauma and life changes. She brings five years of professional experience and works with people facing stress, anxiety, bereavement and trauma-related difficulties. Kathryn aims to create a welcoming space where thoughts and feelings can be spoken about openly and without judgement.

Her practice focuses on helping people manage the day-to-day effects of loss, trauma and shifting circumstances. She uses a mix of approaches tailored to each person’s needs, and she explains options so people can choose what feels right. Sessions are collaborative and paced to match what the person wants to work on.

Kathryn has practised in the United Kingdom for five years and holds BACP accreditation, which she uses to guide her professional standards. Her background includes supporting people with sleeping problems, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting concerns, and work-related stress such as compassion fatigue.

She also helps with longer-term patterns such as attachment problems, codependency, dissociation and feelings of emptiness. For people managing chronic illness, cancer, or caregiving strain, she offers focused support around practical coping and emotional processing.

Taking the first step can feel hard. Kathryn aims to make the first contact straightforward: she listens first, then helps chart a clear way forward together.

How Kathryn’s approaches translate to online counselling

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationship patterns shape current connections. It looks at how people relate to others and themselves, and helps when attachment issues cause anxiety or difficulty trusting. Client-Centred Therapy centres on the person’s own experience and pace, offering empathetic listening and reflecting back what matters to the individual so they can find their own direction. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and routines and then tries small, practical changes to shift mood and behaviour.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kathryn discusses different methods with each person and decides together what to try first. This collaborative process means goals and techniques are matched to the client’s needs and preferences rather than imposed.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm current session options before booking as specific formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also allow people to join from a quieter spot without needing to travel to an appointment. Registered or accredited professionals, including therapists who use these approaches, can adapt their work so practical exercises, discussions and grief or trauma processing fit into an online session structure.
