Background and approach
Her work includes addressing anger, low self-esteem and process addictions like gambling or compulsive exercise. Kay adapts the way she works to each person. She uses attachment ideas to look at how relationships affect feelings and behaviour.
She draws on emotionally focused techniques to help people name emotions and repair connection. Existential and client-centred ideas shape sessions so clients can find meaning and make choices that fit their lives. Sessions may include talking through difficult memories, practising new ways to communicate, or setting small goals between meetings.
Kay aims to create a respectful space and to move at a pace the client can manage. She explains concepts in simple language and keeps the focus on what will help now. Kay is registered with NCPS, and she practises from the United Kingdom.
Sessions are offered in English and are arranged to suit each person’s schedule and needs.

How Kay's approaches translate to online therapy
Attachment-based work focuses on how early and current relationships shape feelings and reactions. Online sessions using attachment ideas often look at patterns in close relationships and help people practise new ways of relating to reduce anxiety and conflict.Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) is about identifying core emotions and using them to guide change. In remote sessions this can help people name painful feelings, pause before reacting and build more supported emotional responses in intimate or stressful situations.
Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the centre. The counsellor listens without judgement, reflects what is said and supports the client to find their own answers and make choices that feel right.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss your goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then adapt methods as needed. This is a collaborative process where adjustments are made if something is not working.
Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions suit lower bandwidth or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging let people write out thoughts between calls or use messaging for brief updates and support. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life while keeping the focus on progress and practical change.
