About Kirsty
Kirsty Lee is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with five years of professional experience. She supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression and trauma and abuse. Kirsty also helps with family and parenting issues and with problems around self-esteem and grief.
She uses a mix of practical talking therapies to suit each person. Sessions focus on understanding feelings, spotting unhelpful patterns, and building simple coping steps that fit daily life.
Background and approach
Kirsty keeps explanations plain and avoids jargon so people can focus on making steady progress. Kirsty draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Client-Centred ideas, together with mindfulness practices. This blend means sessions can include noticing difficult thoughts, trying new behaviours, and learning to respond rather than react.
Work is practical and goal oriented while remaining person-focused. People come to Kirsty for a wide range of concerns including postpartum depression, social anxiety, self-harm, sexual assault and abuse, and attachment or abandonment issues. She also supports those facing blended family tensions, fatherhood issues and young adult transitions.
Sessions aim to build skills and increase self-understanding. Kirsty encourages small, realistic steps and checks in on progress as goals change. Her style is warm and straightforward, with an emphasis on what helps in everyday life.

Therapeutic approaches and online support
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed by them, and then take actions that match their values. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking and trying practical changes to behaviour and routine. Client-Centred Therapy emphasises being heard and respected, giving space for someone to make sense of their experience at their own pace.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Kirsty discusses goals and preferences in early sessions and adapts methods as needs change. This collaborative process means techniques can be blended and tested to see what helps most for each person.
Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is good for a fuller conversation and visual connection. Phone can be simpler when bandwidth is low. Live chat or messaging suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer not to be on camera. These formats offer flexibility to fit sessions around work, family life and other commitments.
