About Kerry
Kerry Perkins is a counsellor registered with the NCPS and has three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, and the pressures of parenting. Kerry also helps with self-esteem, grief, trauma and abuse, and feelings of isolation or disconnection.
Her approach is down-to-earth and conversational. She draws on Client-Centred Therapy to focus on what matters to each person. She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) methods to identify unhelpful thoughts and practical ways to change them.
In sessions Kerry listens to the specific problems someone brings and helps them name the next small steps. She often works on clearer communication, boundary setting and managing overwhelming feelings. She can also support parents who are coping with pregnancy, childbirth and fatherhood-related pressures.
Kerry integrates her approaches rather than following a single model. That means conversations can move between exploring how someone makes sense of their experience and trying concrete techniques to ease symptoms. She aims for straightforward exercises people can use between sessions.
Her background includes work with issues such as codependency, body image, guilt and shame, impulsivity and workplace stress. Kerry asks clients to be active partners in planning sessions and to agree the goals they want to work on.
How sessions work
How Kerry uses therapeutic approaches in online work
This counsellor uses Client-Centred Therapy to focus on the person’s experience. That means listening without judgement and following what the client says matters most. It helps when someone needs to be heard and to make sense of feelings about family or parenting.She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to identify patterns of thinking that keep people stuck. CBT includes practical exercises and simple experiments to test different ways of thinking and behaving. That approach is often used for anxiety, low mood and stress related to work or family life.
Finding the right way of working is part of the process. Kerry will work with each person to decide which approach, or mix of approaches, fits their goals and daily life. This happens collaboratively and can change as therapy progresses.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm the current online options before booking.

Kerry aims to make sessions practical so they can be used alongside parenting and work commitments.
