Kerrie McCabe is a counsellor who has spent six years helping people manage difficult feelings and life changes. She holds BACP accreditation and practises in the United Kingdom. Kerrie aims to make therapy straightforward and approachable for people who are feeling overwhelmed or stuck.
Kerrie blends person-centred care with practical techniques from cognitive behavioural approaches. Sessions focus on clear, achievable steps you can use between meetings. She keeps language plain and avoids jargon so conversations stay useful and down to earth.
Background and approach
In sessions Kerrie listens closely and works alongside each person to build understanding. She encourages gentle honesty, and will help you notice patterns that get in the way. The pace is set by the client, with space for humour where it helps ease tension.
Typical concerns Kerrie supports include stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, self-esteem and career uncertainty. She also offers help for trauma, grief, intimacy-related worries, parenting strain and ADHD-related difficulties. Other areas she addresses include chronic health challenges, caring stress and body image concerns.
Kerrie offers a mix of practical coping skills and longer-term work on beliefs and relationships. She helps people set realistic goals and tests small changes together. The overall aim is to improve day-to-day functioning and make choices that feel more manageable.
To begin, Kerrie asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions. Her approach is collaborative and adaptive, so therapy is shaped around each person’s needs and life circumstances.
Approaches you can use online and how they help
Kerrie uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice difficult thoughts and choose actions that match their values. ACT is useful for long-standing worry, low mood and problems that feel stuck because it focuses on what matters rather than fighting thoughts.She also draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to break unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns. CBT is practical and structured, and it often helps with anxiety, insomnia, low mood and coping with change.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Kerrie will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and adapt methods as the work progresses. This means you can try a practical technique, review how it went and then shift focus if something else would suit better.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a person prefers no camera. Live chat and messaging suit quick check-ins, brief coaching-style support or ongoing work where short written reflections help track progress. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily life.
