About Catherine
Catherine Bezzant is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with a BACP credential and nine years of experience. She focuses on practical help for people facing addictions, trauma, grief and loss, depression, anxiety and related concerns. Catherine aims to meet people with respect, sensitivity and compassion as they start therapy.
She works in a way that adapts to each person. Sessions are shaped around what a person needs, using conversation and reflective techniques to make sense of difficult feelings. Catherine also supports people coping with eating difficulties, stress, parenting strain and compassion fatigue.
Her wider areas of interest include attachment and abandonment issues, adoption and foster care, ageing and geriatric concerns, and challenges around body image. She also helps people who are managing chronic illness, cancer, caregiving stress, codependency and control or communication problems.
Catherine brings psychodynamic ideas alongside client-centred and attachment-based ways of working. Mindfulness and existential perspectives inform her approach when exploring meaning, values and present-moment experience. She aims to help people notice patterns and try new ways of responding to old problems.
People who prefer an open, conversational style may find this approach useful. Catherine invites clients to shape goals together and to try practical steps between sessions. The focus is on steady progress rather than quick fixes.

How her approaches translate to online therapy
Catherine often draws on attachment-based ideas to understand how early relationships shape current reactions. This approach looks at patterns in close relationships and can help with abandonment, attachment issues and difficulties in relating to others.She also uses client-centred therapy which focuses on listening fully and following the person's pace. That means sessions aim to provide a non-judgemental space where the person leads the topics and the therapist reflects back what matters most.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Catherine will talk with clients about their goals and preferences and tailor methods as they go, making changes if something does not feel helpful. This is a collaborative process rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.
If you are considering online work, confirm the current session options before booking so they fit your routine. Many people appreciate that online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving or travel, and it can reduce time spent on travel. It also allows shorter check-ins or sessions that do not require video when that suits someone's needs.
