About Kerry
Kerry Hulbert is a counsellor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression and life changes. She brings a calm, accepting presence so people can talk about what matters most and find practical ways to move forward. She trained and worked for many years as a nurse and a midwife before moving into counselling and play therapy.
That clinical background informs her clear, down-to-earth style and her comfort with clients facing illness, loss or major life transitions.
Background and approach
Kerry uses person-centred principles in sessions, offering empathy and acceptance while helping people make sense of painful experiences. She also draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that repeat across a person’s life, and somatic techniques to help the body and mind work together when feelings are hard to name. Sessions are shaped around each individual.
Kerry listens first, then helps set goals that feel realistic and relevant. Conversations may include talking through feelings, noticing how the body responds, and trying small changes to reduce distress. She has seven years of experience in counselling work and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
Kerry practises in the United Kingdom and conducts therapy in English. People who choose her often want a steady, compassionate therapist who offers practical support alongside emotional understanding. Kerry aims to help clients gain clarity, cope better day to day, and take steps towards a more manageable life.

How Kerry's approaches work online
Kerry draws on person-centred practice, psychodynamic ideas and somatic methods to support people online. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on empathic listening and acceptance so clients can explore feelings at their own pace; it works well for anxiety, low mood and life changes. Psychodynamic Therapy looks at recurring patterns and early relationships to understand current difficulties, which can help with relational struggles and deep-rooted emotional issues. Somatic Therapy pays attention to bodily sensations and how stress shows up in the body, useful for trauma responses and chronic tension.Finding the right approach is a joint process. Kerry will talk with the person about what feels most useful, try things out, and adjust the focus over time. The aim is to match methods to a person’s needs, goals and comfort level rather than prescribe a single route from the start.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video is helpful when visual cues matter, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging can suit quick check-ins or people who prefer not to use a camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or mobility limits while keeping the therapeutic process consistent.
