QUALIFIED COUNSELLOR
Integrative
(In-Person & Online)
MNCPS (Acc.)

About me

I’m a qualified Integrative counsellor, meaning that I use different techniques to tailor counselling to your individual needs. I offer a safe, respectful space where you can talk at your own pace without judgement. Whether you’re looking to work through a specific issue, seeking personal development, or have a general feeling that life could be better, I’m here to support you. 

Through my background in healthcare and education, I bring a distinctive, creative and thoughtful dimension to therapy which can be woven into our work alongside traditional therapeutic techniques.

In my role in the agency and from working for a cancer charity, I have had the privilege of helping clients navigate a wide variety of themes, including anxiety, bereavement, relationship issues, burnout, health challenges, and more.

I am especially interested in supporting individuals during difficult relationship transitions, including divorce and situations involving abuse.

I have also worked with adult men and women from a wide range of cultures and ethnicities and am LGBTQ+ friendly and welcome neurodiverse clients. I deeply value the richness of each person’s background and strive to create an environment where you can feel heard and respected, regardless of your experiences and background.

I offer short-term or long-term counselling to adults (18+), in-person at HT Counselling Services in Bromsgrove, and online counselling across the UK.

Individual work

My practice is grounded in person-centred values: I believe that you are the expert in knowing what you need. I also understand that this internal voice can sometimes feel lost or silenced and having someone there to validate and support your process can make a real difference. Our work together will be a collaborative partnership, with you taking the lead in exploring what’s important for you.

Clients I work with

I have been fortunate enough to work with adults and young people and am passionate about working with people of all ages.

I have experience supporting those coping with bereavement, anticipatory grief, caring for a loved one with a cancer diagnosis, health anxiety, processing diagnosis and experiencing treatment.

How I deliver therapy

I offer both short-term and long-term therapy. In-person counselling is available at HT Counselling in Aston Fields, Bromsgrove. I offer online counselling across the UK.

Therapy approaches

I am an Integrative Counsellor, which means that rather than a ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach, I use a wide variety of techniques to adapt your individual needs.

With Kym’s help, I have learned healthy coping strategies and no longer feel the need to turn to self-harm. I have also learned how to better manage stress to prevent me from getting to peaks where I no longer feel in control of the situation at hand. This has been extremely beneficial to me during my applications to university, which I can only describe as the most stressful time of my life so far, yet I have not spiralled back into poor coping mechanisms, and I can truly credit that back to my time with Kym.
~ Client
We were worried for our son and how he would manage as he got older, worried he’d be prone to anxiety and depression. I feel the sessions with Jacqui have had a really positive impact and paved the way for any further support as he grows. The stigma about receiving counselling fully quashed. Thank you Jacqui!
~ Client
Very positive - we’ve seen great improvements in our son’s confidence, self esteem and ability to handle big emotions.
~ Client
I feel much more calmer in myself. I have learned how to recognise intrusive thoughts and how best to deal with them. I have implemented the methods I’ve been taught in therapy in day to day life.

Counselling has really helped me through a difficult time after experiencing challenges. I feel the sessions have helped me get back to my old self and I am feeling much more positive about the future and my journey ahead.

It is continuing to make a difference to me. I am still processing the ways in which Debbie supported me to begin to face things in my own way and dare to try and make decisions I needed to make, including facing my fears and not allowing them to overwhelm me.
~ Client
Emma worked so well with my son and helped him to cope so much better with a very difficult year. She listened and gave practical advice, which was just what he needed.
~ Client
Exemplary - so supportive. Client centred, compassionate and attentive. Built a strong trusting relationship. Responsive to when/what I was struggling with and the emotional states I brought to sessions. I felt safe and secure very quickly.
~ Client
The therapist was very professional and understanding to my situation and provided a safe space for me to express my feelings. I feel in a better place after having sessions.
~ Client
As someone who had never had counselling sessions before I was sceptical if it was going to be beneficial to me, however after having some sessions with Kerry I was able to unload my thoughts which has greatly eased my situation and thoughts.
~ Client
Really supportive, positive, helpful and it had a huge impact on my life. Thanks again to Klaudia, she was amazing.

Using the strategies you have taught me and understanding where my anger is coming from, has really helped me to become a better person to be around. I’m no longer angry all the time!
~ Client
Your counselling sessions really helped to get me through a difficult period and I now feel in a much better place and able to think about moving on with my life.
~ Client
Thank you so much again for all the help you gave me, it gave me the ability to figure out how to fix my issues by myself, which takes a big weight off my shoulders.
~ Client
I've shared things with you that i had never shared with anyone - testament to your unconditional acceptance of me.​

There have been some hard times in the months since we ended counselling, but I remembered the things we discussed and I got through lots of different challenges thanks to you.

Thank you so much for all your hard work and support these past two years. It is so greatly appreciated.

Counselling has helped me control anger linked to anxiety, focus in self care and helped strengthen my relationship with my children.

I'm so glad I have you to come to as a supervisor. You help me trust in my processes and I trust your judgment of them! A great big thank you! You are a real steadfast influence on my practice.
