About Kim

Kim Poyser is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression and relationship struggles. She also supports people dealing with grief, trauma and abuse, identity and LGBT concerns, eating and intimacy-related issues, and the challenges of parenting and family life. Kim names coping with life changes and self-esteem as common topics she addresses.

Kim brings five years of independent practice experience and a longer history in social care. She is a member of the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP).

Background and approach

Before personal work she provided pastoral counselling in further and higher education and worked on solution-focused projects in youth services. Her style is straightforward and respectful. Sessions focus on what matters to the person in front of her.

Kim listens carefully, reflects what she hears, and helps people set practical steps they can try between sessions. She uses client-centred principles to make the conversation feel safe and collaborative. She also draws on solution-focused ideas to identify small changes that can make a big difference.

Kim adapts the pace and focus to each person’s situation. Kim offers conversations by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time and fees vary with location and availability.

To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the therapist’s calendar.

How client-centred and solution-focused work online helps

Client-Centred Therapy centres the person’s experience and priorities. The therapist listens without judgement, follows your lead and helps you make sense of what matters most. This approach is useful for building trust, addressing self-esteem, and working through emotional pain.

Solution-Focused Therapy looks for practical steps and small changes that move things forward. Sessions focus on strengths, past successes and clear, achievable goals. It can be helpful for stress, anxiety, relationship problems and coping with life changes where making manageable adjustments is the aim.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Kim will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and agree a plan together. That plan can change as conversations progress so the method fits the person rather than the other way round.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls let you meet face to face when that helps. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit short check-ins into a busy day. Live chat and messaging work well if you prefer typing or want flexible-style conversations. These options make it easier to work around work, family or mobility constraints while keeping the focus on practical progress.
