About Kathleen

Kathleen Foulger works with people on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression and related challenges using evidence-based therapeutic techniques. She is registered with NCPS (National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society) and has six years of professional experience in the UK.

Kathleen focuses on helping people manage overwhelming feelings and regain a sense of control. She talks through current difficulties and past events that keep affecting daily life. She also supports people dealing with addiction issues, relationship strains, parenting pressures, anger and low self esteem.

Her experience includes working with survivors of sexual and domestic abuse, and supporting people who are coping with loss. Sessions aim to identify practical steps clients can try between meetings alongside exploring thoughts and feelings during sessions. Kathleen sees the person as the expert in their own life and builds on strengths they already have.

She keeps language plain and sessions straightforward. The first meetings concentrate on what matters most now and on setting clear, manageable goals. Over subsequent sessions she reviews progress and adapts the approach as needed.

To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and arrange a first session using the Talk to a counsellor online button. The subscription for sessions can be cancelled at any time and costs vary with location.

How evidence-based approaches are used in online sessions

Evidence-based therapeutic techniques focus on practical, proven ways to reduce distress. In practice this might mean breaking down overwhelming problems into manageable steps, working on thoughts and behaviours that keep difficulties going, and practising coping skills between sessions. These methods are useful for anxiety, low mood and stress, and for dealing with the effects of trauma.

When working with trauma and abuse, approaches emphasise stabilising responses to reminders and improving everyday coping. For grief and loss the emphasis is on making room for difficult feelings while identifying small practical adjustments that help day-to-day functioning. Kathleen uses these types of techniques to guide sessions and to set clear, achievable goals with each person.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss options and agree a plan based on the person's needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and the method can be adjusted as progress is reviewed.

If you plan to use online sessions, please confirm the specific session formats before booking because the biography does not list them. Online work can help fit counselling into a busy week, make it easier to attend from different locations and allow shorter check-ins when time is limited.
