About Kirsty
Kirsty Peart is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with a BACP credential and five years of experience. She focuses on helping people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship and family matters, trauma and abuse, and issues related to identity and wellbeing. Kirsty uses a simple, person-centred way of working.
She aims to make sessions easy to talk in and free from judgement. People meet her for everyday struggles like low mood, sleep and eating difficulties, grief, and the strain of caring for others.
Background and approach
In sessions she combines practical thinking with a focus on meaning and choice. That can include looking at how thoughts and behaviours affect feelings, and considering big questions about values and purpose. She also draws on short-term, solution-focused ideas to set goals and notice change.
Her style is collaborative and straightforward. She helps people set small, manageable steps and checks progress together. The tone is warm and direct, and conversations are paced to suit the person in the room.
Kirsty accepts people who are based outside the UK as well as within the country. Sessions can be taken by video call, phone, live chat, or text messaging to fit different needs and lifestyles.

Online support
How Kirsty’s approaches translate to online sessions
Existential Therapy looks at meaning, choice and how life events shape feeling and purpose. In online work this helps people talk through big questions, deal with loss or change, and think about how they want to live day to day.Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, empathy and meeting the person where they are. It suits people who need space to be heard and to make sense of difficult feelings without pressure to perform or explain quickly.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, pays attention to thoughts, actions and routines. Online CBT can be useful for tackling anxiety, low mood, sleep problems and unhelpful habits by trying small, practical exercises between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of working together. The therapist will discuss aims, try different ways of working and decide with the client which methods feel most helpful. That shared process means goals and techniques can change as the work progresses.
Online sessions give practical flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues and a fuller conversation, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or background noise is an issue. Live chat or text messaging can suit brief check-ins, ongoing reflection, or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family or travel.
