About Kimberley
Kimberley Long is a counsellor with a background in NHS services, independent practice and community projects. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and she draws on 13 years of experience supporting people through difficult times. Kimberley aims to make starting therapy easier and says taking that first step matters.
She usually begins by listening and building a calm, non-judgemental space. Kimberley uses a person-centred approach as the foundation of her work, which means she follows what matters most to the person in front of her.
Background and approach
She also brings in practical tools from cognitive behavioural therapy to help people change unhelpful thinking and behaviour. Sessions often focus on clear, manageable goals. Kimberley helps people tackle stress and anxiety, depression, addictions and trauma.
She also supports work around relationship concerns, self-esteem, grief, parenting pressures and life transitions. Her wider focus covers problems such as attachment difficulties, codependency, caregiving stress, cancer-related challenges, and issues linked to ageing and neurodiversity. Kimberley works to keep conversations straightforward and grounded, so people can try out new ways of coping between sessions.
People can expect a collaborative style that balances empathic listening with practical strategies. Kimberley encourages small, achievable steps and checks progress regularly. Her aim is to help people feel more able to manage day-to-day stresses and move towards clearer goals.

Online support
She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions connect. CBT offers practical exercises and small tasks you can try between sessions to reduce anxiety, manage mood and change unhelpful patterns.
Finding the right approach is part of the process and Kimberley treats it as a collaboration. She will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and together you will try methods that feel helpful, adjusting them over time if needed.
Online therapy with Kimberley is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to give flexible options. Video is useful for a full conversation and visual cues, phone sessions suit shorter check-ins or people with low bandwidth, chat and messaging support quick updates and ongoing reflection. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life or other responsibilities while maintaining continuity of care with registered or accredited professionals.
