About Kerry

Kerry Hooper is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She holds an honours degree in counselling and has practised for five years, alongside training towards a psychology qualification. Kerry believes counselling should be open to anyone who wants it and aims to make starting therapy straightforward and respectful.

Kerry works in a calm, approachable way. She offers time to talk through what is worrying you and listens without judging.

Background and approach

Sessions are shaped around each person's needs so there is space to set the pace and focus on what matters most to you. Her experience includes supporting people through bereavement, depression, anxiety, low confidence and stress. Kerry also has experience with issues related to LGBT identity, relationships, self-esteem and thoughts about suicide or self-harm.

She works with difficulties both large and small and helps people notice practical steps forward. Addiction concerns, trauma and intimacy-related issues are within her experience, along with life changes such as career shifts and caregiving stress. Kerry also supports those facing chronic illness, ageing or end-of-life questions, and people struggling with isolation or a loss of purpose.

In sessions she draws on client-centred and solution-focused approaches, keeping conversation practical and collaborative. Kerry invites a gentle, steady pace and aims to help people feel heard, clearer about their choices, and more able to cope with what comes next.

Ways of working Kerry names

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

How Kerry’s approaches work online

Kerry commonly uses client-centred and solution-focused approaches. Client-centred work means the conversation is guided by what matters to you; the counsellor listens deeply and follows your lead to help you feel understood and make sense of your situation. Solution-focused work concentrates on small, practical changes and identifying steps that have worked for you before, which is useful for stress, anxiety and day-to-day challenges.

Finding the best approach is part of the process. Kerry will discuss your goals and preferences and together you will decide what feels most helpful. That collaborative decision can change as therapy progresses, and she will adapt the focus to match what you need at each stage.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make counselling more flexible. Video calls are useful when visual contact helps the conversation, phone sessions can fit easily into a short break, and messaging or live chat can work for quick check-ins or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options make it easier to schedule therapy around work, family or mobility needs and to keep regular contact in a way that suits your life.
