Hi my name is Kerry-Jo, I am an accredited Psychotherapist and I am based in the UK. My counselling approach is unique, effective and creative; I use a fusion of Psychology, Humanistic Client Centred Therapy and CBT.
Each client is an individual and I adapt my approach according to client need, for example I may focus on CBT techniques for a client with anxiety; or it may be more relevant to bring in wellbeing and motivational techniques, visualisation and NLP for another. I generally work to a short term framework and have a proven track record to quickly establish a therapeutic relationship of trust; fostering profound, enduring change with minimal dropout rates.
I have experience working with diverse clients and diverse age ranges. I have worked as a Children’s Counsellor in a primary and secondary school and as a Counsellor in a busy GP surgery. I am currently employed as a University Student Counsellor and concurrently run my own successful private psychotherapy practice where I focus on individual clients as well as creating and running bespoke workshops on wellbeing.
I am especially drawn to empowering those who have lost their voice. I have three years’ experience of working in the community as a one to one Mental Health Recovery Worker. This training has given me a deep and invaluable understanding of mental health conditions, knowledge which enriches my day to day practice and enables me to be far-reaching and diverse.
My counselling is inclusive and unconditional. Regardless of qualification or experience, I believe the most important qualities I bring to you is that I am a warm, grounded, empathetic individual who is non-judgmental, I see the humanity in everyone and their potential, regardless of any label attached to them.
I really look forward to working with you

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
