About Kerry
Kerry Hooper is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has an honours degree in counselling and five years of practice experience. Kerry aims to make counselling accessible and approachable for people who are nervous about starting therapy.
Her sessions focus on giving people time to talk about what matters to them. Kerry listens without judgement and helps clients work out next steps that feel realistic.
Background and approach
She draws on straightforward conversation rather than technical language to make the process easy to follow. In practice Kerry has supported people with grief, depression, anxiety and stress. She has also worked with issues such as self-esteem, relationship difficulties, addictions and LGBT concerns.
Kerry takes on both everyday problems and major life changes, including career decisions and coping with illness. Her approach is grounded in client-centred work where the person’s needs lead the conversation. She also uses solution-focused ideas to help identify small, practical changes that move things forward.
Sessions are shaped around what each client finds most helpful. Kerry welcomes people from different backgrounds and accepts international clients. Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, so people can choose how long to continue.
To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to the therapist’s availability.

How Kerry works online
Solution-Focused Therapy looks for small, practical steps that can change day-to-day life. Sessions aim to spot what already works and build on it, which can be useful for anxiety, relationship issues and coping with life changes.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kerry will discuss different ways of working and agree a plan with each client based on needs, goals and preferences. The process is collaborative and shaped around what the person wants to achieve.
Details about session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, require less travel time and allow shorter check-ins around work or caregiving. Many people find that meeting remotely helps maintain continuity when circumstances change, while still using the same therapeutic approaches they would expect in person.
