About Kerry
Kerry Forster is a counsellor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety and relationship worries. She works in a straightforward, client-led way and aims to make sessions feel calm and approachable for someone who is worried or overwhelmed.

Her practice covers a wide range of concerns including grief, self-esteem, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping problems, and compassion fatigue. She also supports people dealing with career stress, ADHD, ageing concerns and long-term health conditions. Kerry holds NCPS and has five years' experience working with diverse difficulties.

Online support
Practical therapy approaches for online sessions
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people identify and name strong feelings that affect how they connect with others; it is often used for issues where relationship patterns and attachment responses cause pain. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early bonding styles and how they shape current reactions, which can be helpful for people who notice repeated difficulties in close relationships.Client-Centred Therapy focuses on a compassionate, non-directive way of talking so the person leads what matters most. Kerry will work collaboratively to find which approach or mix of approaches fits best for a person's goals and preferences rather than insisting on one method from the start.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, which give practical flexibility. Video calls let you read facial cues and body language, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can feel simpler, short live chats are useful for quick check-ins, and messaging can support ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to schedule therapy around work, family commitments and differing energy levels.
