About Kirsty

Kirsty Woodier is a counsellor who supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strains, grief and trauma. She also helps with self-esteem, addiction concerns, parenting pressures and life changes. Kirsty works from a person-centred stance and focuses on helping people feel heard and understood.

Kirsty trained with a BSc (Hons) in Psychology and holds a Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling at level 4. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, listed as BACP.

Background and approach

Her background means she combines psychological knowledge with practical counselling skills. In sessions she offers a calm, non-judgemental space and listens for what matters most to each person. Conversations are guided by the client’s goals, with empathy and clear feedback.

She encourages people to use their strengths while working through difficult feelings and decisions. Kirsty uses person-centred principles together with techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy when they suit the issue at hand. That mix lets her focus on emotions and personal meaning, while also introducing practical steps to change unhelpful thoughts and routines.

She keeps developing her practice through regular supervision and continuing professional development. People who want a down-to-earth, collaborative approach will find sessions that aim to explore problems and build coping strategies one step at a time.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on giving people a respectful, non-judgemental space to talk and be heard. In online sessions this means the counsellor listens closely, reflects what is said and helps clients name their feelings and priorities, which can help with grief, low self-esteem and relationship worries.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions interact. Online CBT often uses structured conversations and simple exercises to spot unhelpful thinking and try small behaviour changes, useful for anxiety, stress and mood problems.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then suggest person-centred listening or CBT techniques as needed. Together they decide what feels most helpful and adapt the work over time.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video is close to an in-person meeting, phone can be quicker and needs less bandwidth, while messaging and chat suit short check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make therapy easier to schedule around work, family or busy days.
