Katie Lohan, BACP

Katie Lohan is a UK BACP counsellor with three years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting pressures, and anger among other concerns. Sessions are delivered in English and she uses conversational, person-focused practice.

Katie uses a person-centred approach that lets the client lead the session. She treats the client as the expert on their life and helps them notice their own strengths and choices. That means sessions often focus on clarifying what matters and on practical steps the person can try between meetings.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which looks at unhelpful thoughts and patterns and how they affect behaviour. That approach can be useful for managing stress, sleep problems, anxiety and anger-related patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas are used too, helping people notice difficult feelings while committing to values-based actions.

Katie says she approaches everyone with respect and sensitivity. In practical terms that means checking goals together, pacing sessions to what feels manageable, and reviewing progress as work continues. She often helps people with relationship concerns, self-esteem, body image and issues tied to addiction or chronic illness.

Her background includes three years working with adults on a range of life changes and emotional difficulties. Prospective clients should confirm current session formats before booking and follow the site steps to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first appointment.
