About me

You can achieve real world change by connecting with your authentic self. My aim is to help you unearth what has made you who you are today, discover who you want to be tomorrow, and build the tools and the confidence to navigate the various challenges that life presents along the way.

Before training to be a counsellor, I spent twenty years in the online advertising industry. This helped me to understand that reality is more than what we see at the surface, and that I too had to undergo a transformation so that my life reflected my true self. Becoming a counsellor has not only enabled me to begin to make that change, but also to help others on their own life journeys.

Experience

My belief is that you are the expert in your life and that by accepting who you are, change can happen. Much of my practical experience has been in the realm of life-limiting illness and bereavement, and through this I have developed a variety of skills that enable me to meet you where you are, whatever situation you find yourself in.

Individual work

The ups and downs of life are inevitable – joy, despair and everything in between – but how we respond to them, how we let them shape us, is not inevitable. We can often navigate them with the support of people close to us, but sometimes more is needed, and that’s OK. A calm space can allow true feelings to be freely explored, without judgment. By incorporating creative techniques – whatever works for you – we can sometimes uncover deeper emotions that unlock true progress and transformation. This is where I seek to help you.

What I can help with

You don’t have to come with a fully formed idea of what you need – this is something we uncover through dialogue. There might even be a mixture of things: anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, relationship dynamics, problems at work or at home, bereavement, illness. Come as you are, and we will look at it together.

Qualifications/CPD

I have a level 2 and level 3 in counselling skills. Level 4 in Therapeutic counselling and Level 5 in Psychotheraputic Counselling. I also have a BSc in Psychology with Biology.

I also have further professional development training in:

  • Dawn project – domestic abuse
  • Telephone and online counselling
  • Working with suicidal clients
  • Integrating artwork into practice
  • Safeguarding Adults and Children

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.

I can cope better with day to day life. I am less teary and I feel stronger, more optimistic about life ahead. My therapist has been a godsend.

Thank you, for your time, patience and support to help me navigate. I am beyond grateful for your energy and kind professionalism.

My therapist was brilliant at listening and supporting me through the counselling process. She was professional but warm and approachable and it felt very natural talking to her. I would certainly go back to see her again.

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.

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.

Accessible, supportive, compassionate and wise service which responded to me when I needed to be heard and has helped me find the way forward. Thank you!

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.
