About Kimberly
Kimberly Bennett is a counsellor who focuses on trauma-informed and client-centred work. She brings 19 years of experience and a calm, practical manner to sessions. Kimberly is a Registered Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
She creates a warm, non-judgemental space where people can talk at their own pace. Sessions aim to help clients feel heard, understood and better able to manage difficult feelings. Kimberly adapts her approach to each person’s needs rather than using a single method for everyone.
Background and approach
Her background includes supporting people with stress, anxiety and depression, as well as grief and bereavement work done in a hospice setting. She also offers help for relationship problems, communication difficulties, low self-esteem and life transitions. Trauma, abuse and compassion fatigue are among the areas she supports.
Kimberly uses a mix of approaches such as Trauma-Focused Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy, cognitive behavioural techniques and mindfulness. She balances practical strategies with opportunities to notice bodily responses and patterns of thought. Reviews are built into the work so progress and goals can be checked and adjusted together.
She has experience working with neurodivergence and holds a diploma in autism work that informs how she supports communication and sensory or social challenges. Online and telephone delivery are within her practice, giving a range of ways to connect that suit different schedules and needs.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online support
Trauma-Focused Therapy helps people make sense of distressing experiences and the feelings that follow. It often involves gently processing memories, noticing physical reactions and developing ways to feel safer day to day. Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the heart of the work and emphasises being listened to without judgement; this approach helps when someone needs acceptance and time to find their own direction. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thinking and behaviour and offers practical steps and exercises to reduce anxiety and change unhelpful habits.Finding the best approach is part of the process and the therapist will work collaboratively to decide what fits. Sessions include regular reviews so goals and methods can be adjusted as progress unfolds and as life circumstances change. This collaborative decision-making helps make sure the work stays relevant to the person's needs and preferences.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone calls can be lower-bandwidth and easier between commitments, and messaging or live chat can suit brief check-ins or ongoing written reflection. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, caregiving or travel while keeping the focus on practical support and steady progress.
