About Denise
Denise Kerr is a counsellor with a BACP credential and 15 years' experience. She trained in psychology and psychotherapy, and she draws on that background to tailor sessions to each person. Denise aims to create a steady, respectful space where people can talk through what matters to them and take small steps forward.
She uses an integrative way of working, choosing methods that fit the person rather than following a single model.
Background and approach
That means she might focus on feelings linked to early relationships, look at unhelpful thinking patterns, or work on clearer emotional expression. The style is practical and conversational rather than purely academic. Clients often bring stress, anxiety, low mood, grief, relationship or parenting concerns, workplace pressures, or difficulties with self-esteem.
Denise also has experience with trauma, attachment issues, phobias, seasonal mood changes and self-harm concerns. She supports people who want help rebuilding trust in themselves and repairing strained connections with others. Sessions tend to mix listening, gentle challenge and practical tasks to try between meetings.
Denise helps people notice patterns, practise new responses, and build day-to-day routines that feel more manageable. Progress is paced to each person’s needs and goals. Therapy is offered in English and is available to people in the United Kingdom and internationally.
The focus is on clear communication, steady support and helping people find workable steps toward feeling better.
How different approaches are used in online therapy
Attachment-Based work focuses on how early relationships shape our emotional responses and close bonds. In sessions this may involve looking at patterns in relationships, understanding hurt from the past, and trying new ways of connecting that feel safer and more honest.Client-Centred therapy places the person’s experience at the heart of the work. The therapist listens carefully, reflects back what they hear and helps the client find their own pace and direction. This approach suits people who need a steady, non-judgemental space to think things through.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses short practical exercises to test unhelpful thinking and build alternative habits. CBT is often helpful for anxiety, phobias, low mood and workplace stress.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Denise will work collaboratively to identify which methods feel most helpful for the person’s goals and preferences. Together they check progress and adapt the work if different tools are needed.
Online therapy offers flexibility and can fit around busy days. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that is helpful. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier on days when being on camera feels tiring. Live chat and text-based messaging suit brief check-ins, ongoing coaching or people who prefer writing to speaking. These options let therapy continue from different locations and at different times while keeping the focus on practical steps and steady progress.
