About Catherine

Catherine Bezzant is a counsellor working in the United Kingdom with nine years of experience. She offers a respectful and compassionate approach and tailors conversations and plans to each person. She aims to make the first steps simpler for people who are nervous about starting therapy.

Catherine has helped people cope with addictions, trauma and abuse, and grief and loss. She also has experience supporting those with depression, anxiety and obsessive behaviours such as trichotillomania. Her work includes attention to difficulties around parenting, eating, stress and compassion fatigue.

Her practice pays attention to attachment and relationship patterns that shape how people cope. She uses client-centred listening to follow what matters most to each person. Mindfulness and psychodynamic ideas help uncover patterns and create space for different choices.

Catherine is used to working with concerns related to abandonment, adoption and foster care, and attachment issues. She also supports people dealing with chronic illness or pain, caregiver stress, ageing and body image worries. These are raised sensitively and at the person’s own pace.

Sessions focus on clear, practical conversation and on building better coping in day-to-day life. Catherine aims to help people make small, manageable changes and find more steadiness when life feels overwhelming. If you are thinking about starting therapy, she invites you to take the next step and complete the initial matching questionnaire.

Step 3

How Catherine’s approaches can work online

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships influence current trust and closeness. Online sessions can be a place to notice those patterns and practise different ways of connecting. Client-centred therapy focuses on following the person’s lead and offering empathic listening; it helps when someone needs a space to be heard and understood. Existential therapy helps people face big life questions and find personal meaning when coping with loss or major change.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Catherine will discuss what feels most helpful and adapt the plan as therapy progresses. This is a collaborative process that combines your goals, preferences and how you respond to different ways of working.

Please confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Many people find online sessions easier to fit around work, caring responsibilities and travel. Online talks can make follow-ups simpler, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove commute time so therapy fits into a busy week. Registered or accredited professionals can work with you to make sessions practical and relevant to everyday life.
