Background and approach

In sessions she draws on client-centred ways of working that keep the person’s experience central.

How Kerry blends practical approaches for online therapy
Client-centred therapy puts the person’s experience at the heart of the work. The counsellor listens without judgement and follows the client’s lead to build understanding and trust. This approach helps when someone needs a space to be heard and to make sense of difficult feelings.Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention skills to calm the mind and notice thoughts and feelings without getting swept away. It can be useful for anxiety, stress and mood difficulties by offering short practices people can use between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Kerry works together with each person to decide which methods make most sense for their goals and preferences. That means trying suggestions, checking what helps and adapting the plan over time so it fits the individual.
Online sessions use video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls are good for a face-to-face feel, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier when you need a quick check-in, and messaging options suit people who prefer shorter, more frequent contact. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments and to keep continuity when life gets busy.
