About Kirsty
Kirsty Lee is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom. She has five years of professional experience supporting people with stress, anxiety and low mood. She talks plainly and aims to make therapy clear and straightforward for those who are unsure where to begin.
Kirsty draws on several established methods to shape sessions around each person's needs. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioural techniques and client-centred ideas alongside mindfulness practices.
Background and approach
That mix helps people learn coping skills, notice unhelpful patterns and choose actions that match their values. People come to her for help with family problems and parenting strain, relationship difficulties tied to attachment or abandonment, and challenges in blended families or fatherhood. She also supports those facing depression, postpartum depression, self-harm thoughts, grief and recovery after sexual assault or abuse.
Kirsty offers practical tools as well as space to talk. Sessions include developing day-to-day strategies for mood and anxiety, building self-esteem and practising mindful ways to relieve stress. She explains techniques in simple steps so they can be used between sessions.
She works with many young adults and people managing social anxiety or phobias, and has experience with mood disorders and broader emotional distress. Conversations focus on what people want to change and on small, manageable steps towards those goals. Kirsty welcomes sessions in English and is available to work with people in the UK and internationally.
Her approach is collaborative and aimed at helping each person find a practical way forward.

Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding. The counsellor offers empathy and non-judgemental support so people feel heard and can explore their own solutions, which helps with self-esteem and relationship concerns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kirsty will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and adapt methods together. This collaborative process means techniques are chosen to fit the individual rather than forcing a single method.
Online sessions via video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video is good for face-to-face conversation, phone can work when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits brief check-ins and text messaging helps when people prefer to write. These options increase flexibility and let people continue therapy from different locations and schedules.
