Background and approach

Phobias and mood-related difficulties such as seasonal affective disorder are also within her focus areas. Kim offers a calm, non-directive presence in sessions. She aims to witness people’s experience and to help them name what is happening.

From there she helps clients identify choices and try manageable changes that fit their life. Her work also covers areas like parenting pressures, compassion fatigue and postpartum depression. She can help with feelings linked to attachment, abandonment, guilt and shame, or a sense of emptiness and isolation.

Kim pays attention to life transitions and questions about purpose and direction. Based in the United Kingdom, she communicates in English and Afrikaans. Kim is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, which is listed as her credential.

Her practice supports clients who prefer talking through challenges and building coping skills at a steady pace.

Client-centred care delivered online

Client-Centred Therapy places the client’s experience at the heart of the work. The therapist listens carefully, reflects what she hears and helps you make sense of feelings and choices. This approach is useful for anxiety, low self-esteem, grief and uncertainty about life direction.

Kim’s way of working is collaborative. She will help you try different ways of approaching a problem and check in about what feels helpful. Together you decide which ideas to keep and which to change as the work unfolds.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls are useful when visual connection matters and you have a quieter spot. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit a break during the day. Chat or text-based messaging can be shorter check-ins or a way to communicate when typing feels easier.

Using online formats makes it simpler to fit therapy into busy lives and to keep regular contact while working towards clearer goals. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists can adapt sessions to match your pace and preferences, helping the work feel manageable and relevant.
