About Katie
BACP. 3 years' experience. Katie Lohan works in the United Kingdom and offers counselling for a broad range of concerns including stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, parenting, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, eating and sleeping problems, mood conditions such as depression and bipolar, ADHD, and career or self-esteem difficulties.
Katie uses person-centred methods alongside Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. She aims to let clients lead sessions while offering practical techniques when helpful. Sessions focus on talking through current problems, noticing patterns, and testing small changes that might improve day-to-day coping.
She also works with issues connected to attachment and abandonment, body image, codependency, chronic illness and pain, caregiving stress, domestic violence, and substance use. Katie is experienced with matters relating to kink and alternative sex culture, fatherhood issues, and commitment or control concerns.
Work typically involves listening, reflective feedback, and structured exercises drawn from CBT and ACT when appropriate. Katie describes her role as accompanying clients through exploring feelings and choices, and supporting them to try approaches that suit their situation.
Sessions are conducted in English and orientated to practical steps as well as emotional processing. Prospective clients should follow the site process to complete a short questionnaire and book a first session through the online options button.
Therapeutic approaches used for online counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on values-based action rather than getting stuck in difficult feelings. It is often used for anxiety, stress and adjustment after loss.Client-Centred Therapy emphasises listening and letting the client lead sessions. The counsellor reflects back what is said and supports the client to access their own resources and choices.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thinking and behaviour patterns and uses practical exercises to test new ways of coping. It is commonly used for anxiety, low mood, sleeping and eating concerns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Katie will discuss options with each person and decide together which methods suit their goals and preferences. This collaborative process helps shape what is tried in sessions and how progress is reviewed.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking as the biography does not specify them. Online counselling can make it easier to fit appointments around work, school and caregiving, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can offer similar therapeutic approaches remotely, and Katie aims to adapt sessions to fit practical circumstances and treatment aims.
