About Katie
Katie Rennison is a counsellor who supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addictions and relationship struggles. She also helps with issues such as parenting strain, sleep and eating difficulties, self-esteem, ADHD and the emotional effects of illness or caregiving. Katie works from a human-centred perspective and aims to create a respectful space where people feel heard.
She has three years of counselling experience and spent two years working as an in-house counsellor for an NHS doctors service. There she saw a wide range of concerns, including trauma, abuse, neglect, addiction recovery, ADHD and autism-related challenges.
Katie describes her practice as integrative and humanistic. She uses a person-centred approach that treats the client as the expert in their own life and adapts techniques to suit each individual. Sessions focus on building trust through genuine listening and acceptance rather than quick fixes.
Her work often addresses the impact of trauma on wellbeing, helping people make sense of difficult experiences and find ways to move forward. She combines elements from different approaches to tailor a plan that fits each person’s needs and pace.
In sessions Katie prioritises empathy and unconditional positive regard. The aim is to offer a steady, non-judgemental space where people can talk honestly, explore choices and practise new ways of coping. She invites people to arrive as they are and to work at a pace that feels right for them.
How Katie's approaches translate to online work
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening closely and respecting the client's perspective. It helps people who need a calm space to think through difficult choices and to rebuild self-understanding.Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple paying-attention skills that can reduce overthinking and improve sleep or stress management. It suits people who want practical ways to manage anxiety and to stay present in daily life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk through goals, preferences and the kinds of techniques that feel comfortable. This is a collaborative process and plans can change as therapy progresses.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by avoiding travel or allowing appointments during a lunch break. It can also suit people who prefer not to use video for every session - some options need less bandwidth or allow shorter check-ins. Confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered and which will fit your schedule.
