About Catherine

Catherine Bezzant is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with a BACP credential and nine years of experience. She supports people who are facing hard changes such as grief, addiction, anxiety and depression. She presents herself as responsive and compassionate, and aims to tailor conversations and plans to each person’s needs.

Her work often addresses trauma, abuse and struggling with compulsive behaviours such as trichotillomania. She also helps people managing stress, eating concerns and the long-term effects of illness or caregiving duties. Catherine emphasises a respectful and sensitive approach in sessions.

She draws on approaches that centre the person in therapy and look at how early relationships shape current feelings. Sessions can include reflective conversation about difficult emotions and practical ways to notice and manage overwhelming thoughts or urges. The style is down-to-earth and focused on what helps in daily life.

Catherine often works with people navigating major life transitions, including midlife changes and the uncertainty that can come with them. She pays attention to how attachment patterns and life stories influence decision making and relationships.

Her practice aims to be collaborative. Catherine invites people to set goals together and to adjust the way they work as progress is made. The initial steps are straightforward and designed to make starting therapy less daunting.

How Catherine’s approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current feelings and reactions. It helps when patterns of trust, closeness or avoidance keep repeating and make relationships or decisions harder to manage.

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening without judgement and following the person’s pace. It helps people feel heard and to find their own ways forward when facing anxiety, grief or life transitions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Catherine will discuss options and try different ways of working to match a person’s goals and preferences. The decision is collaborative and can change as therapy progresses.

Confirm the session formats before booking, as the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also suit people who prefer to speak from a familiar setting or who need more flexible scheduling. Registered or accredited professionals often use these advantages to make therapy more accessible and practical for everyday life.
