About Kerry

Kerry Forster is a counsellor who helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, grief and trauma. She works with individuals who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or uncertain about relationships and life changes. Kerry aims to create a straightforward, calm space where people can talk through what matters to them.

She uses a person-centred approach as the core of her work. That means sessions are led by the client and the conversation follows what feels most important.

Background and approach

Kerry also draws on Trauma-Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) when they can help to address specific problems. In practical terms Kerry helps clients notice unhelpful thinking patterns and learn small skills to manage strong emotions. She supports people through bereavement, low mood, relationship strain, sleep and eating concerns, and difficulties linked to trauma and abuse.

She also works with issues such as ADHD, body image and compassion fatigue. Kerry holds NCPS, which is shown as NCPS in her credentials. She has five years of experience and practises in the United Kingdom.

Sessions are offered in English and international clients are accepted. Her way of working is warm and non-judgemental. People can expect clear conversation, practical tools and time to reflect.

Kerry encourages collaboration so clients set the pace and goals for their therapy.

Ways of working Kerry names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Kerry uses Trauma-Focused Therapy to help people process and make sense of distressing experiences. This approach focuses on the symptoms and memories that follow trauma and looks for ways to reduce their everyday impact. She also works from a person-centred, or client-centred, stance which means sessions follow what matters most to the person and aim to build trust and clarity.

CBT is another tool Kerry draws on to help people spot and change unhelpful thinking patterns. It is practical and goal-orientated, and can be useful for anxiety, low mood, sleep and eating problems. Choosing a way of working is a shared process; Kerry will talk through options and tailor techniques to fit the client's goals and preferences so the plan feels manageable and relevant.

Online therapy offers flexibility for people with busy lives or mobility limits. Video calls work well for deeper conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging suit brief check-ins or day-to-day support. These formats help make therapy more accessible while preserving the same collaborative, skills-based approach Kerry uses in person.
