About Katie
Katie Bifulco is a counsellor who uses a person-centred approach to support people through stress, anxiety and major life changes. She keeps sessions simple and practical, listening without judgement and helping clients decide what matters next. Katie works in UK practice and offers sessions in English.
Katie draws on client-centred principles to prioritise each person’s experience. That means she follows the pace and concerns of whoever is in the room, helping them name problems and decide small steps forward.
Background and approach
She also uses elements of Dialectical Behaviour Therapy to teach emotional regulation skills when feelings are intense. Her background includes five years in independent practice and accreditation with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, shown as BACP. She has supported people coping with anxiety, depression, grief and trauma, and those facing job loss, retirement and other transitions.
Katie has experience working with people on the autistic spectrum and with ADHD. She has also worked with people affected by baby loss, post-natal difficulties, infertility and menopause-related concerns. She aims to adapt methods to each person’s needs rather than follow a fixed plan.
Sessions cover a wide range of life issues including relationships, parenting pressures, career stress, chronic illness and caregiver strain. Katie mixes listening with practical tools such as grounding techniques and short goal-focused tasks when these suit the client. People meet Katie to talk through current struggles, learn coping skills and plan gradual change.
She encourages an open conversation about what will help and adjusts the approach as progress unfolds.
How Katie’s approaches work online
Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and following what matters to the client. The counsellor reflects feelings and helps people find their own solutions, which suits issues like anxiety, low mood and life transitions.Dialectical Behaviour Therapy offers practical tools for managing intense emotions. It teaches grounding, distress-tolerance and emotion-regulation skills that can be practised between sessions to reduce overwhelm and improve day-to-day coping.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Katie will discuss options with each person and choose strategies together based on needs, goals and what feels most helpful. That collaborative process means methods can be adapted over time as progress happens.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone session, live chat or text-based messaging. Video suits longer in-depth work and visual connection, phone can be useful when bandwidth is limited, live chat and messaging suit brief check-ins and people who prefer typed communication. These options give flexibility to fit therapy around work, family life and other commitments.
