Kitty Schwichiski

Kitty Schwichiski is a counsellor with seven years of practice who helps people reduce the hold of painful thoughts and feelings. She focuses on practical steps that make everyday life feel more manageable. Kitty works to create a calm space where clients can speak without judgement and feel heard.

She looks for the root causes of anxiety and stress so triggers become clearer. Once triggers are understood, Kitty draws on a range of tools to break unhelpful thinking patterns. That can include techniques from cognitive behavioural approaches and mindfulness-based work to help interrupt rumination.

Sessions also look at values and what matters most. Kitty encourages people to consider who they want to be and what they want to stand for. That often shifts focus away from worry and towards purposeful action.

She supports people through many issues including relationship stress, parenting pressures, grief, trauma and anger. Kitty also works with concerns such as self-esteem, career uncertainty, chronic illness and body image. Her aim is to help clients move from feeling stuck to feeling capable of making changes.

Kitty encourages a collaborative relationship. She offers time and space to unravel problems, process emotions and plan steps forward together. Reaching out can be hard, and she aims to make the first contact as straightforward as possible.

How Kitty uses therapy approaches online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to notice difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that reflect their values. It can help when anxiety or rumination keeps someone from living the life they want. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour, and offers practical exercises to change patterns that maintain worry or low mood.

Choosing an approach is part of the work. Kitty will discuss goals and preferences and together decide which methods suit each person's situation. That collaborative stance means the plan can change as progress is made.

The original biography does not specify which remote session formats are used, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work, family and medical appointments, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when that suits the day. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises, worksheets and mindfulness practices so they work well in a digital setting, helping people use techniques between sessions to support steady progress.
