About Kerry
Kerry Perkins is a counsellor in the United Kingdom who supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, parenting concerns, and workplace strain. She also helps with low self-esteem, grief, trauma and abuse, intimacy issues and anger. Kerry uses a straightforward, warm approach that aims to make conversations feel manageable even when feelings are big.
Kerry holds NCPS, which is a professional membership body, and her practice draws on three main approaches to meet different needs. She blends Client-Centred Therapy with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and ideas from transactional approaches, shaping sessions around each person rather than following a single template. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer thinking as well as listening and validation.
People meet Kerry to talk about major life changes, workplace problems, compassion fatigue and challenges linked to pregnancy and parenting. She also works with worries such as abandonment, codependency, body image, guilt and shame, isolation and impulsivity. Conversations are aimed at recognising strengths and exploring small, realistic changes.
Kerry describes the first session as a chance to get to know one another and agree on goals. She favours a collaborative style where the person’s own experience guides the work. Over time, she helps people build new ways of coping and notice progress in everyday life.
Her stated experience in the field is three years and she practises in the UK. Sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time, and practical arrangements are confirmed through the service booking process.
How Kerry’s approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on understanding your experience and offering non-judgemental listening. It helps when people need space to be heard and to make sense of their feelings.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses practical tools to shift unhelpful patterns. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, low mood and workplace-related worries.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kerry aims to collaborate with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences. That might mean more listening and reflection at first, or working through CBT techniques if practical strategies are the priority.
If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the specific formats available before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also help people maintain continuity of care during life changes, and the therapist will discuss what will make sessions most useful for you.
