About Kirsty

Kirsty Bees is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with five years of practice. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem and depression, and supports those coping with life changes. She lists social anxiety and phobia among her focus areas.

Kirsty works with practical strategies people can use right away. She draws on integrative and CBT approaches to match sessions to what each person needs. Conversations are direct and focused on steps that can reduce overwhelming feelings and improve daily coping.

She often helps with issues connected to relationships and self-image, such as abandonment, body image concerns and difficulties with communication. Clients also bring struggles with guilt, shame, loneliness and questions about life purpose or midlife change.

Kirsty describes her work as helping people build confidence, motivation and clearer ways of managing upsetting thoughts and feelings. Sessions aim to identify patterns that keep problems going and to try different strategies for change.

For those unsure how to start, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. The service uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, with fees varying by location.

How therapeutic methods and online sessions work together

She combines cognitive behavioural techniques with an integrative approach, explaining practical steps to manage anxious thoughts and behaviours and trying them in real life. CBT focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking and testing small behavioural changes to reduce anxiety and improve confidence. The integrative part means she draws on different ways of working to suit what someone needs in the moment. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kirsty will discuss goals, preferences and how a method feels for the individual. That way the two of you can decide together which techniques to try and adjust them as progress is made. For practical session arrangements, confirm the current options before booking as formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work or family time, reduce travel, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find remote sessions help them access support from home or during a quiet break, while still working on the same therapeutic skills they would use in person.
