Kerry Hooper is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She holds an honours degree in counselling and has five years' experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, grief and depression. Kerry aims to make counselling accessible and approachable for anyone seeking support.
She uses a gentle, person-focused style. Sessions are led by what the client needs and at a pace that feels right. Kerry offers a space to talk through difficult feelings such as loneliness, low self-worth, relationship strain and addiction concerns.
Background and approach
Her background includes work around bereavement, LGBTQ issues, suicide prevention, and workplace stress. She also supports people facing ageing and geriatric concerns, caregiver strain, chronic pain or illness, and end-of-life matters. Kerry brings practical help for communication problems, attachment worries, and questions about life purpose.
Kerry draws on client-centred and solution-focused approaches to keep sessions grounded and useful. She focuses on listening closely, reflecting what matters to the person, and helping identify small, manageable steps to move forward. Sessions aim to reduce overwhelm and build clearer ways to cope.
Sessions are offered in English and Kerry accepts international clients. Work can cover intimacy-related issues, family problems, infidelity, guilt and shame, isolation and jealousy. She encourages people to take the first step and will guide them through the process of finding the right way forward.
How Kerry's approaches work online
Kerry draws on client-centred therapy to place the person and their experience at the heart of sessions. This approach focuses on listening closely, reflecting what matters and helping someone feel heard. It is helpful for issues like low self-worth, isolation, grief and relationship worries.She also uses solution-focused therapy to find small, practical steps forward. That means identifying goals together and trying short-term strategies to reduce overwhelm. This approach can suit people who want clear, manageable ways to cope with anxiety, stress or life transitions.
Deciding on the best approach is a collaborative process. Kerry will work with each person to match methods to their needs, goals and preferences. She reviews progress and adjusts the plan so therapy stays useful and relevant.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls let people read facial cues and hold longer conversations. Phone sessions require less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat and messaging are useful for shorter check-ins or when typing feels easier. These options make it simpler to access therapy from different places and schedules, and they support a flexible, consistent path of support.
