Welcome to Counselling With Confidence. My name is Kirstie and thank you for your interest.

I no longer provide face-to-face sessions. All sessions are now provided online only via secure internet link. I am aware that this is a different experience to that with regular face-to-face therapy. However, the ability to form a therapeutic relationship is no different when working online. If you have concerns about how you might feel in the online environment I am happy to arrange a short ten minute introductory meeting. Please contact me if you wish to try this.

I am a qualified integrative therapeutic counsellor working with clients to deal with the day-to-day difficulties which we all face at times.

In addition to my general qualification I have successfully completed training to become a psychosexual and relationship counsellor. I have then undertaken further specialist training with Pink Therapy to work with gender, sexual and relationship diversity, an area of therapy which is of particular importance to me.

I work with individuals and couples, whatever their sexual orientation, gender identity or relationship status.

I am registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). As an integrative counsellor I draw on my awareness of the various theoretical approaches and schools of psychotherapy to tailor therapy to suit a client’s needs. The relationship between you, the client, and me, as the therapist, is an essential part of the therapy. I believe that this is achieved by providing a safe, confidential and non-judgmental space within which to work, where trust built between us enables you to work with the potentially painful and debilitating issues that you may be experiencing.

As all sessions are now held online there is no geographical limitation to whare a client is located. All that is required is a quiet confidential space from which to make the link.

In accordance with the requirements of the General Data Protection Regulations 2018 I am obliged to advise how I use any data and personal information collected, either through this website or in direct communication with you as client , or potential client. Please read the privacy statement which can be accessed from the drop-down menu on the contact page link at the top of each page or from the link on the bottom of each page.

Please feel free to browse the site and, should you have any queries or wish to arrange a no-obligation first assessment session, then please get in touch.

Thank you.
