About Kirsty

Kirsty Palmer is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with six years of practice. She uses a gentle, person-centred style and aims to make the first steps towards change feel manageable. Kirsty works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression and trauma-related concerns.

She also supports those dealing with relationship and intimacy issues, addictions and eating or sleeping problems. Her approach centres on listening without judgement and helping people find their own solutions.

Background and approach

Kirsty draws on client-centred methods to create a steady, respectful space for difficult conversations. She also uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. When helpful, she brings in practical techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy, especially to address anxious thinking and unhelpful habits.

She frames therapy as a collaborative process and focuses on small, achievable steps rather than big, sudden change. Sessions may include talking, reflective exercises and short practical tasks to try between meetings. Kirsty has worked with a broad range of concerns over six years and holds NCPS as a listed credential.

She offers sessions in English and accepts clients internationally. If someone is unsure where to begin, she encourages a simple first step to explore concerns and decide on next actions together. Her style is calm and straightforward, aimed at people who want clear support without jargon.

She balances therapeutic listening with practical coaching for everyday coping and recovery.

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

How Kirsty’s Approaches Work Online

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships influence current patterns. It helps people understand why they react in certain ways and supports changing unhelpful relationship habits. Client-centred therapy focuses on the person in front of the counsellor. It gives space for feelings and thoughts without judgement and helps people find their own direction.

Choosing the right approach is part of therapy. Kirsty will work together with each person to decide what feels most useful. That might mean blending attachment ideas with client-centred listening and occasional cognitive techniques, based on individual goals and preferences.

Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls recreate face-to-face conversation, while phone sessions suit those who prefer not to be on camera or have limited bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, written reflection or when someone needs flexible timing. These options give practical ways to keep continuity and to try different styles until the best fit is found.
