About Kirsty

Kirsty Halm is a UK-based counsellor who has worked in schools, colleges, charities and private practice since graduating in 2005. She supports people across the lifespan, offering therapeutic help to clients from around six years old through to their seventies and beyond. Kirsty provides both in-person and remote appointments, including video sessions, telephone conversations and live chat, to meet a range of practical needs and preferences.

Her training includes a Postgraduate Diploma in Advanced Counselling and Psychotherapy, a Graduate Diploma in Person-Centred Counselling and a Certificate in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. She is a registered member of the BACP, a professional UK counselling association, and is eligible for accreditation. Originally trained in the Person-Centred approach, Kirsty has expanded her practice through continued professional development into an integrative model that draws on multiple evidence-based techniques.

Kirsty has worked with a wide variety of presenting issues such as anxiety, depression, bereavement, trauma, relationship difficulties, addiction, anger, emotional regulation, suicidal ideation, self-harm and stress. She is committed to helping people of all ages and backgrounds build emotional resilience and move toward more positive mental health and wellbeing.

Integrative Methods and Remote Care

Person-Centred therapy focuses on creating a supportive, non-judgemental relationship where the client leads the pace and direction of change. It is useful for people seeking a compassionate space to explore feelings, identity and personal challenges. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, delivered as structured conversations and practical techniques, helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop coping strategies for anxiety, low mood and stress. Kirsty also works within an integrative framework, combining elements from different evidence-based techniques to tailor care to each person's needs and circumstances.

Choosing the right therapeutic approach is part of the collaborative work between client and therapist. Kirsty will discuss different methods, consider the client’s goals and preferences, and adapt her approach over time so that therapy fits the individual rather than forcing a single model.

Online therapy via video calls, telephone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging offers practical flexibility for busy lives and those who prefer remote access. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access sessions from different locations and choose the format that best supports engagement and comfort with the therapeutic process.
