About Kirsty
Kirsty Nash is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with ten years of professional experience. She works with people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress and anxiety, struggling with depression, or coping with loss and big life changes. She uses straightforward, respectful conversations to help people find what matters to them and take practical steps forward.
Kirsty believes each person knows their own story best and brings strengths to the room.
Background and approach
She listens without judgement and helps people notice patterns that keep them stuck. Conversations focus on small, manageable changes that fit into everyday life. Her background includes work with trauma and abuse, self-esteem and motivation, and relationship and family concerns.
She also has experience with issues such as attachment difficulties, autism and Asperger syndrome, domestic violence, and sexual assault and abuse. That experience informs how she adapts sessions to stay sensitive and responsive. Kirsty draws on a mix of approaches including cognitive behavioural techniques, acceptance and commitment ideas, and client-centred ways of working.
Those methods are used to clarify goals, build coping skills, and reduce unhelpful thinking patterns. She aims to make therapy practical and understandable. Sessions are offered in English and can be arranged online or by phone.
Kirsty works with people who want to make changes in how they think, feel and cope, and she supports them while they try new ways of handling stress and difficult emotions.
Therapeutic approaches online and how they help
Kirsty uses cognitive behavioural therapy to help people spot and challenge unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviours. CBT is practical and often focuses on skill building to reduce anxiety and low mood.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people clarify their values and accept difficult feelings while committing to actions that matter. ACT can be useful for chronic worry and life changes where avoidance has become a problem.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to choose methods that suit their goals, preferences and the issues they bring. That plan can change as progress is made and new needs appear.
Online therapy offers flexibility with video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text are useful for brief updates, ongoing reflection and people who prefer typing to speaking.
These options make it simpler to fit sessions around work, parenting or travel, and help keep continuity when life is busy. Many people find the range of formats helps them stay engaged and practice new skills between sessions.
