About Kerry
Kerry Hooper is a practising counsellor with five years' experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She holds an honours degree in counselling and is also a trainee psychologist. Kerry aims to make counselling available to people who want or need it and provides a calm space to begin talking about what matters to them.
Kerry uses a straightforward, person-centred way of working. Sessions are focused on the client's experience and priorities. She listens closely and helps people name what is going on and what they want to change.
She also draws on solution-focused ideas to help people identify small, practical steps forward. This can be useful when someone wants clear, short-term goals to try between sessions. Kerry adapts the balance between listening and problem-solving to each person's needs.
Kerry has worked with issues including bereavement, depression, anxiety, low confidence, stress, self-esteem and relationship concerns. Her practice also covers grief, LGBT matters, trauma and addiction-related difficulties, and life changes such as career transitions and caregiving strains.
Sessions are described as a personal space to talk about anything the client chooses. Kerry says she will support people as they work through worries, whether those issues feel big or small. She invites people to take a first step when they feel ready.
How Kerry’s approaches work for online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's experience in the room. The therapist listens without judgment and follows the client's pace. This style helps when someone needs to be heard, to make sense of feelings like grief, anxiety or low self-esteem.Solution-Focused Therapy looks at what a person wants to change and builds small, practical steps towards that goal. It is helpful for people who prefer short-term, goal-oriented work and want clear actions to try between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Kerry will work collaboratively to decide whether more listening or more practical steps suit a client's needs, goals and preferences. That conversation shapes how sessions proceed and what is tried between meetings.
The biography does not specify which remote formats are offered, so confirm the available session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow check-ins from a quieter place. It also makes access possible for international clients who arrange sessions around different time zones.
