Kate Wright, AASW

Kate Wright is an AASW social worker with ten years' counselling experience. She supports people through relationship strain, parenting worries, career transitions, ADHD challenges, and coping with life changes. She also works with carers facing stress, people navigating divorce and separation, women’s issues, and workplace difficulties.

Her approach is down-to-earth and person-centred. She focuses on listening first so clients feel heard and understood. Sessions aim to be warm, non-judgemental and practical, with space to talk through what matters most to you.

Kate uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage concentration and memory concerns, reduce overwhelm, and make decisions about relationships and work. Conversations often include simple strategies to try between sessions and checking what works in everyday life.

She encourages small, steady steps rather than big leaps. The therapist helps clients set realistic goals and build confidence over time. Many people find this approach useful when juggling caring responsibilities alongside other demands.

Sessions are offered on Friday mornings AEDT. To begin, readers are invited to use the site Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling according to availability.

How evidence-based methods fit into online therapy

Many of Kate's approaches draw on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear goals and practical steps. One common method helps people break large problems into manageable tasks and build routines to improve concentration and everyday functioning. This can be useful for ADHD-related difficulties and when juggling caring responsibilities.

Another frequently used approach centres on strengthening communication and problem-solving skills in relationships. It teaches ways to express needs, set boundaries and handle conflict more calmly, which is helpful for parenting issues, separation and workplace tensions.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to identify which techniques match a person's needs, goals and preferences. She will check in and adjust methods as progress unfolds, so the plan evolves with the client's experience.

Practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into busy schedules and avoiding travel time.
