About Katarzyna

PACFA counsellor in Australia with 20 years' experience. Katarzyna 'Kate' Loubet helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, grief, addictions and parenting challenges. She focuses on rebuilding confidence and finding meaning while strengthening self-care and relationship skills.

Kate uses practical, skills-based work alongside exploring how attachment and past experiences shape current patterns. Sessions include talking through situations, practising new ways of relating, and learning coping strategies for intense emotions. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Attachment-Based and Client-Centred approaches to fit a person's needs.

Her work often looks at issues such as shame, guilt, dissociation, control and avoidance. She also addresses family problems, intimacy concerns, commitment and communication difficulties, and the aftermath of domestic violence and sexual abuse. The focus is on small, achievable steps that build confidence and reduce overwhelm.

People who come for support can expect collaborative planning. Goals are practical and linked to the person's values. Kate explains techniques clearly and practices them in session so they can be used in everyday life.

She offers her clinical experience with direct, straightforward guidance and attention to safety when trauma is involved. Sessions are aimed at helping people manage symptoms, restore routine, and make choices that reflect what matters to them.

How her approaches inform online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking committed action. It helps when anxiety or avoidance gets in the way of living a meaningful life. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. Attachment-Based Therapy examines how early relationship patterns affect current connections and helps people try different ways of relating.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and how someone responds to initial techniques. Decisions about which methods to use are made together and can change as progress is reviewed.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by removing travel time or allowing shorter check-ins during a workday. They also let people use strategies from ACT or CBT in the settings where problems happen. Expect practical skill practice, collaborative planning, and regular review of what helps between sessions.
