About Debby
Debby Kirby NCPS is a therapist based in the United Kingdom with four years' experience. She works with people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem and relationship concerns, including intimacy-related worries and parenting challenges. She also supports people facing mood difficulties such as depression and bipolar disorder and offers help around sleep, eating and coping with life changes.
Debby brings personal and professional experience from diverse cultural backgrounds to her work. She uses creative approaches alongside talking therapy, drawing on art, poetry and visualisation when clients want different ways to process thoughts and feelings. Inner-child work is highlighted in her practice for people who want to explore early attachment or long-standing patterns.
Her approach is conversational and practical. Sessions focus on what is getting in the way now and on building small steps clients can use between sessions. She describes video sessions as a helpful way to build rapport and continue work when in-person meetings are not possible.
Debby has worked with people affected by historic sexual abuse, domestic violence and complex grief. She lists additional focus areas including ADHD, attachment issues, autism and a wide range of relationship and behavioural concerns. Her NCPS credential is presented as part of her professional identity.
People who choose her often want a mix of practical strategies and creative exploration. She asks new clients to use an initial matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session to begin the process.
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work
Debby uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques alongside creative methods. One approach she uses focuses on talking therapies that help identify current patterns and build practical coping steps for anxiety, stress and mood difficulties. This work aims to make anxious moments more manageable by practising small changes and problem-solving strategies.She also incorporates inner-child work, which looks at early attachment experiences and how those patterns show up now. That approach can help when people want to understand persistent relationship or self-worth issues. Creative methods such as art, poetry and visualisation are offered for those who prefer non-verbal ways to express difficult feelings.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to decide which methods match their needs, goals and preferences, and will adjust the plan as progress is reviewed.
