About Kirsty

Kirsty Peart is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with a BACP accreditation and five years of practice. She focuses on helping people who are facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, and trauma-related concerns. Kirsty aims to build a calm, non-judgemental space so clients can talk openly about thoughts and everyday habits that affect mood and behaviour.

She uses straightforward conversation to identify what matters most to each person. Sessions often look at patterns of thought and daily routines that keep problems going, and then test small changes to see what helps. Kirsty draws on Client-Centred and Cognitive Behavioral approaches, along with Existential and Solution-Focused ideas, to shape practical steps that fit a client’s life.

Kirsty has worked with people dealing with parenting strain, eating and sleeping difficulties, addiction concerns, and the stress that comes from caring for others. She also supports those navigating identity and LGBT issues, body image, and relationship communication problems. Her experience includes working with people who have experienced abuse, dissociation, or major life changes.

Her style is warm and down-to-earth. Conversations are paced to each person, and goals are revisited as therapy progresses. Kirsty encourages trying small experiments between sessions to build new habits and clearer thinking.

How Kirsty uses practical approaches online

Kirsty commonly combines Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to support people online. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening without judgement and helping someone make sense of their feelings. It suits people who want a supportive space to talk through identity, relationship or life stressors. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses small experiments and day-to-day habit changes to shift unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, low mood, sleep and behavioural habits.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kirsty will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences, and together they decide which methods to try. That collaborative process means plans can change as progress is made and new priorities appear.

Please confirm the exact online session formats available before booking, as the profile does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and make it simpler to meet with a therapist from another location. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises, homework and pacing to suit how someone prefers to work remotely.
