After graduating in 2005 I have been working as a counsellor in a variety of settings including schools, colleges, charities and private practice. My work has included clients from age of 6 years old to over 75. I am experienced in providing face to face and remote sessions which include: video, telephone and live chat.
I have a Post graduate Diploma in Advanced Counselling and Psychotherapy, a Graduate Diploma in Person-Centred Counselling and a Certificate in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. I am a registered member of the BACP and am eligible for accreditation.
My original training was as a Person-Centred therapist but through further training and continued professional development my practice has developed in to an integrative model.
My experience of working with clients has included, but is not limited to: anxiety, depression, bereavement, trauma, relationships, addiction,
anger, emotional regulation, suicidal ideation, self-harm and stress.
I have a strong passion and commitment to working with people of all ages and backgrounds, supporting them with building their emotional resilience and achieving positive mental health.
Additional areas of focus: LGBT, Family conflicts, Grief, Intimacy-related issues, Parenting issues, Career difficulties, Depression, Coping with life changes

Kirsty is a great listener and helps me see things differently. I feel so comfortable and safe sharing things with her.

My sessions with Kirsty are only at an extremely early stage but she is brilliant - very quick with messages and extremely understanding - I can’t wait to keep working with her and see how our sessions progress!
