About
Kate Jackson
Wellbeing Therapy Solutions was born from a single, powerful vision: to make high-quality, timely, and compassionate mental health support accessible to everyone. What began as a seedling idea has grown into a nationally recognised and award-winning Occupational Therapy service, supporting individuals, workplaces, and communities across the UK.
I’m Kate, the founder of Wellbeing Therapy Solutions. With over 25 years of experience in mental health and an MSc in Mental Health Studies, I’ve dedicated my career to helping people find balance, purpose, and wellbeing in their lives. From my early NHS days on acute psychiatric wards to my roles as a university lecturer, hospice therapist, and mental health advocate, my journey has been shaped by a deep understanding of the human experience both professionally and personally.
I founded Wellbeing Therapy Solutions from my own home, driven by a determination to bring Occupational Therapy to the forefront of mental health care. With no previous business experience, I built the practice from the ground up, balancing two jobs, learning everything I could about running a business, and securing my very first clients.
Today, Wellbeing Therapy Solutions is one of England’s leading independent Occupational Therapy practices dedicated solely to mental health. While my practice has evolved over the years, my commitment remains the same: delivering personalised, occupation-focused mental health support that helps people make meaningful, lasting changes in their everyday lives.
Everything I do is guided by a supportive, values-led approach that puts people first. I believe therapy should be collaborative, practical, and tailored to the individual. My role isn’t simply to provide treatment, it’s to work alongside you, helping you navigate life’s challenges, build resilience, and reconnect with the routines, roles, and activities that matter most to you.
I’m also passionate about making mental health support accessible when it’s needed most. Unlike many services with lengthy waiting lists, I aim to offer new clients an initial appointment within three weeks of first contact wherever possible and I am proud to say that Wellbeing Therapy Solutions has never held a waiting list. Every enquiry comes directly to me, so you’ll always receive a warm, personal welcome and support that’s tailored from the very beginning.
Alongside one-to-one therapy, I’ve delivered interactive wellbeing workshops to more than 1,000 employees at a large banking group and supported organisations ranging from local businesses to charities, schools, healthcare providers, universities, construction companies, manufacturers, and gaming organisations. My work extends beyond individual therapy because I believe Occupational Therapy has the power to improve wellbeing across entire workplaces and communities.
My story is still being written, but one thing remains constant: my belief that mental health support should be practical, human, and accessible. I’m proud to be helping change the conversation around mental health and proud to champion the life-changing impact of Occupational Therapy.
Whether you’re seeking support for yourself, your team, or your organisation, I’m here to help you move forward with confidence, compassion, and care.
