About Kate

AASW social worker with 10 years' experience. Kate Wright helps people with relationship strain, parenting challenges, career decisions, coping with life changes and ADHD-related concentration difficulties.

She offers straightforward, conversational counselling. Sessions focus on what is happening now and on practical steps a person can try between meetings. Kate listens, asks focused questions, and helps clients clarify priorities and make manageable changes.

Her approach is evidence-informed and goal-oriented. She draws on therapeutic techniques that target thinking and behaviour, alongside problem-solving for day-to-day demands. Sessions often include strategy-setting for managing attention and memory problems at home and at work.

Kate also supports people dealing with caregiver stress, divorce and separation, women's issues and workplace concerns. She helps people set boundaries, plan next steps, and reduce overwhelm so they can handle responsibilities more effectively.

People who come to Kate can expect clear discussion of options and simple practical tasks to try between sessions. She usually works with short- to medium-term goals and reviews progress regularly. Her style is direct and collaborative, aimed at helping people regain more control over daily routines and decisions.

To start, Kate asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session. Sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time, and cost varies with location.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on changing unhelpful thinking and behaviour, helping people manage daily tasks and reduce overwhelm. This approach suits people dealing with workplace stress, relationship difficulties and life transitions where practical steps and planning can help.

She also draws on problem-solving methods that break big issues into smaller, manageable tasks. These techniques help with parenting challenges, caregiver responsibilities and planning after separation by creating clear short-term actions.

Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss what feels most relevant, try out methods in sessions, and adjust strategies based on the person's goals and feedback.

Session format details are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. They also make it simpler to continue work on therapy tasks between sessions and to involve practical planning for home or work routines where helpful.
