About Heather
Heather Kynaston welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety or life changes. She aims to make first steps feel manageable and meets each person where they are. Heather uses a calm, respectful approach to help people talk through what matters most to them.
Heather works from a person-centred perspective, also known as Client-Centred Therapy. That means sessions focus on the client's goals and pace, rather than following a fixed agenda. The approach supports people who are dealing with relationship strains, grief, low self-esteem, addiction concerns, trauma and abuse, or parenting stress.
Sessions give space for honest talk about feelings, worries and choices. Heather aims to listen with empathy and reflect back what she hears, so clients can spot patterns and try new ways of coping. Where practical, she supports people with career stress, intimacy issues, eating concerns, bipolar management and compassion fatigue.
Her practice also includes help for people facing anger, ADHD-related challenges, and the strain of major life transitions. Heather describes therapy as a collaborative process where the client leads and the counsellor follows, offering support and ideas when wanted.
Heather is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She has three years of professional experience working in person-centred counselling across a range of emotional and practical concerns. If someone is unsure where to begin, she guides them through the first steps toward clearer decision-making and steadier daily routines.
How Client-Centred Therapy translates to online work
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, empathy and following the client's lead. In practice this means the therapist offers an accepting space and mirrors what the client says, helping them explore feelings and choices. This approach can help with worries like anxiety, relationship stress, grief and coping with life transitions.The person-centred frame is collaborative. The therapist and client decide together what to try, when to review progress and which issues to prioritise. Finding the right fit is part of the work, and adjustments are made as needs and goals become clearer.
Session formats are not specified in the provided biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into busy days and reduce travel time. They also allow for shorter check-ins when that matches the client's needs, or for sessions that suit quieter surroundings and lower bandwidth. Registered or accredited professionals often use online work to keep therapy consistent with daily life while focusing on listening and practical next steps.
