Kerry Perkins
Compassionate, practical counselling support
About Kerry
Kerry Perkins helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, parenting challenges and grief. She works with issues such as trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, intimacy-related concerns, anger, and workplace problems. Kerry is named in the first paragraph so readers know who they are reading about.
Kerry uses straightforward, person-focused counselling. Sessions aim to make sense of what is happening now and to try practical steps that can reduce distress. She draws on Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, tailoring both to each person rather than following a single script.
Background and approach
In the room Kerry listens for what matters most to the client and helps them notice patterns that keep problems going. She supports people to set clearer boundaries, improve communication, and manage overwhelming feelings. Practical tools and simple experiments between sessions are often used to build confidence and coping skills.
Kerry holds NCPS as a listed credential and practises in the United Kingdom. Her approach emphasises respect for the client’s experience and their role as the expert in their own life. Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person’s needs.
Clients may work on issues such as abandonment, codependency, body image, fatherhood concerns, pregnancy and childbirth, or isolation and loneliness. Kerry also addresses career decisions, compassion fatigue, guilt and shame, and the emotional effects of life change. The focus is on steady, realistic steps toward feeling more in control.

How Kerry Uses Client-Centred and CBT Online
Kerry draws on Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to support people online. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on understanding each person’s perspective, offering warm listening and acceptance so clients can explore their feelings and choices. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours link together and offers practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns, which can help with anxiety, low mood and stress.Finding the best approach is part of the work. Kerry will talk with each person about their goals, what has helped before, and which methods feel most comfortable. Together they decide which ideas to try and adjust the plan as progress is made, keeping the process collaborative and paced to individual needs.
Online sessions are available as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls let people use visual cues and longer conversations, while phone sessions can fit into a lunch break or low-bandwidth situation. Live chat or messaging can suit shorter check-ins, quick reflections, or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to schedule around work, family and other commitments.
