About Kirsty
Kirsty Nash is a counsellor working in the United Kingdom with ten years of professional experience. She focuses on helping people manage anxiety, stress, depression and major life changes. Kirsty aims to support people through trauma, grief and relationship concerns with a practical, person-focused approach.
She believes each person knows their own story and brings useful strengths into therapy. Sessions are shaped around what matters most to the individual, with the counsellor offering steady support and encouragement.
Background and approach
This means talking about what is happening now and finding small, realistic steps forward. Kirsty uses a mix of evidence-informed methods such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy. She also draws on attachment-based and client-centred thinking to help people understand patterns and feel heard.
These approaches are used to build coping skills and emotional awareness over time. Work with Kirsty can include practical tools for managing strong emotions, strategies for everyday stress, and ways to rebuild confidence after difficult experiences. She also offers help around issues like domestic violence, sexual assault, shame, self-harm and challenges linked to autism and young adulthood.
Her registrations include BACP and NCPS, which are shown as credentials. Sessions are delivered in English and international clients can be supported. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and appointments are scheduled according to therapist availability.

How Kirsty works online
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact. It offers practical exercises and experiments to reduce anxiety or depression and to change unhelpful thinking habits.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs and preferences. This is a joint process that can be revisited as things change.
If you are considering online therapy, check the available session options before booking because the biography does not list specific formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They also make it possible to work with a counsellor from another country while keeping the focus on practical coping skills and emotional understanding.
