About Kerry
Kerry Griggs is a BACP counsellor with eight years' experience in the United Kingdom. She works with people experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, low self-esteem and life changes. Kerry also supports those facing grief, trauma, addiction issues and challenges related to sexuality and identity.
Kerry’s way of working is person-centred. She treats each person as the expert on their own life and listens to what matters most to them. Sessions are focused on what is happening now and on finding practical steps that help reduce distress and increase choice.
She believes painful reactions often make sense as responses to life events, childhood experiences, loss or social pressures. Naming and understanding these reactions is a first step toward change. Kerry helps people notice their own resources so they can make decisions they have found difficult before.
Conversations can stay verbal or include optional practices such as breathwork, self-massage, movement or art-based activities when the person wishes to try them. Kerry aims to help people feel more able to cope, express themselves and manage everyday pressures with less overwhelm.
She welcomes a diverse range of adults and offers a respectful space for LGBTQ+ clients where identity can be discussed without unnecessary questioning. Kerry supports people who feel stuck, numb, reactive, conflicted or unsure how to move forward, helping them take small, manageable steps toward clearer choices.
How her approaches translate to online counselling
Kerry uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Client-Centred work among other approaches. ACT encourages noticing unhelpful thoughts and choosing actions that fit what matters to you, which can help with anxiety, low mood and feeling stuck. Client-centred work focuses on listening and on the person's own experience, which helps people clarify values and make their own decisions.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Kerry will discuss different ways of working and agree on what feels most useful based on goals and preferences. The first sessions often focus on understanding what matters and what practical steps are realistic right now.
The original biography does not list which online session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make sessions easier to fit into study, shifts or busy schedules and can reduce travel time. Some clients prefer shorter check-ins when days are busy, while others use longer sessions to work through deeper issues. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt pacing and techniques to suit the person's lifestyle and needs.
