Kate Moore, BACP

Kate Moore is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, grief and parenting challenges. She works with those coping with life changes, addiction, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, and issues around self-esteem, eating and career. She aims to offer respectful, compassionate support so people can feel heard and start to make changes.

She holds a BA in Integrative Counselling and has around six years of professional experience. Kate uses an integrative approach, drawing on different frameworks to fit each person’s needs rather than following one fixed method. She pays attention to early life, social and systemic pressures that shape how someone feels now.

Sessions focus on building a steady therapeutic relationship as a place to look at difficult memories and patterns. Kate offers grounding and relaxation techniques alongside reflective work to help people rebalance and move toward feeling more in control. She emphasises self-care and practical steps clients can try between meetings.

Her background includes bereavement support work and counselling within community services. That experience has involved supporting people through grief, anxiety, obsessive thoughts, adoption-related concerns and trauma-related issues. She has also worked in residential care settings and in group work with parents and young people.

Kate describes therapy as a collaborative process. She aims to listen without judgement and to support people gently as they explore why they feel the way they do and what might help them live differently.

How Internal Family Systems and integrative work translate online

Internal Family Systems (IFS) sees people as made of parts that hold different feelings and roles. In a session this can help when someone struggles with shame, self-criticism, trauma responses or confusion about behaviour. The therapist guides gentle conversations between parts so a person can understand and calm intense reactions.

Integrative counselling means the therapist draws on several proven approaches to suit the individual. That could include grounding and relaxation techniques, reflective work about past experiences, or transactional analysis ideas to notice recurring patterns. These ways of working aim to make therapy feel practical and relevant to daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk through goals, preferences and what has helped before. That makes choosing methods collaborative rather than fixed before the first session.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm which options are available before booking. Many people find online sessions help fit counselling around work, family and travel commitments, reduce travel time, or allow shorter check-ins when needed. Remote work can also make it easier to continue therapy when circumstances change, while keeping the focus on the same therapeutic tasks as face-to-face meetings.
