About Kim
Kim McCloskey is a counsellor who uses client-centred and evidence-informed methods to help people facing stress, anxiety, addiction and grief. She works with adults who are coping with depression, trauma, ADHD and life changes. Kim brings 15 years of professional experience and holds BACP and NCPS credentials.
Her sessions focus on practical conversation and steady support. She listens without judgement and helps people set small, achievable steps. Sessions are shaped around each person’s needs rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.
Background and approach
Kim has a background in teaching counselling and spent several years lecturing. That experience influences how she explains techniques and gently teaches skills that clients can use between sessions. She aims to make ideas easy to put into everyday life.
Therapy may include thinking-style work to challenge unhelpful thoughts, emotion-regulation skills to manage strong feelings, and calming techniques that suit the individual. Hypnotherapy is also offered as an adjunct where appropriate in discussion with the client. She supports people dealing with relationship break-up, addiction, chronic illness and end-of-life concerns, and offers care for those carrying guilt, shame or isolation.
Kim takes a respectful and compassionate approach and helps people build clearer goals and steady routines. To begin, she encourages a straightforward conversation about what someone wants to change. From there she and the client map out achievable steps and practical tools to make progress over time.
How Kim’s approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on a respectful, non-judgemental conversation that helps people explore what matters to them. Online sessions let that dialogue continue without the need to travel and create space for paced reflection.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at thought patterns and practical exercises to change unhelpful behaviour and mood. In remote work CBT often uses structured worksheets, short skill-building tasks and regular check-ins that fit into daily life.
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, DBT, teaches emotion-regulation and distress-tolerance skills for strong feelings. These skills can be practised between sessions and reviewed during video or text check-ins to build steady progress.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss different methods and choose what best matches the person’s goals and preferences. That decision is made together and can be adapted as needs change.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls support full conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be quicker for check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging allow ongoing support and short updates between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and other commitments while continuing therapeutic skill practice.
