About Kay

Kay Cohen works with people on addictions, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, and related concerns. She uses conversation and established therapy approaches to help people manage anxiety, depression, grief, intimacy and self-esteem issues. Kay is registered with NCPS and has 10 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom.

She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationship patterns affect current trust and closeness. Client-centred practice guides sessions so people can set the pace and focus on what matters most to them. Emotionally-Focused Therapy techniques are used when strong feelings and emotional connection are central to the problem.

Kay has worked with a wide range of concerns including process addictions such as gambling and compulsive behaviours, eating difficulties, bipolar and mood-related issues, and stress at work. She also helps with communication problems, guilt and shame, forgiveness, isolation and life-purpose questions. Her work covers intimacy-related issues, infidelity and the challenges of parenting as they affect an individual.

Sessions aim to clarify difficulties, identify patterns that maintain them, and try out different ways of responding. Conversations include practical coping strategies and attention to feelings and relationship patterns. People are encouraged to set clear goals and check progress over time.

Her practice is conducted in English and she does not take international clients. Costs vary with location and sessions are arranged through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How her approaches work in online sessions

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns of trust and closeness, and is useful when difficulty with intimacy or relationship trust is a concern. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and following the person’s priorities, helping them set the pace and topics for each session. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on identifying and working with strong emotions in the therapy room to improve how people express and respond to feelings.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferred ways of working and what feels most helpful, then adapt methods collaboratively as the sessions progress.

Confirm the specific session formats before booking because the biography does not list formats. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work or family commitments, reduce travel time, and allow people to choose quieter surroundings or shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals use online sessions to continue therapeutic work in ways that fit into everyday life.
