About Kathleen
Counsellor, NCPS. Kathleen Foulger has six years of experience working with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, addictions, relationship concerns, parenting strain, anger and self-esteem issues. She also has additional experience with domestic violence. Kathleen practises in the United Kingdom and holds the NCPS credential.
Kathleen works from a counselling perspective that treats the client as an expert in their own life. Sessions focus on practical conversation about the problems people bring. She listens to what matters most and helps identify small, manageable steps people can try between meetings.
Her work addresses reactions after abuse and trauma, responses to ongoing stress, and the impact of grief and loss. She also supports people who are coping with depression, struggles with addiction, relationship tensions and difficulties linked to parenting. Anger and low self-esteem are common topics in her sessions.
Kathleen aims to make the first contact straightforward. She asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then to schedule a first session using the See online counselling options button. The subscription model she uses can be cancelled at any time and costs vary with location.
In session she pays attention to strengths and lived experience. Conversations cover what is happening now, patterns that maintain distress, and practical ways to try different responses. Progress is reviewed together so the work stays relevant and grounded in everyday life.
Therapeutic approaches and how online counselling works
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques are used to address emotional and behavioural problems. One common approach focuses on talking through patterns that keep problems going and testing new responses in small steps. This helps with anxiety, anger and day-to-day stress by making changes more manageable.Another approach concentrates on working through the impact of trauma, abuse and loss by helping people to tell their experience at a pace that feels right. This can reduce the power of distressing memories and make it easier to plan for the present and future.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options with the client and decide together which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative choice can change as the work progresses.
Practical benefits of online counselling include fitting sessions into a busy week and avoiding travel time. Confirm the specific session formats before booking, because the biography does not list them. The subscription model used for sessions can be cancelled at any time, and planning appointments around work, childcare or other responsibilities is often straightforward.
