About Kirsty
Kirsty Ginger is a counsellor with ten years of practice who focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, relationships, trauma and abuse, grief and depression. She works from a person‑centred stance and aims to create a respectful, compassionate space where people can speak openly about what matters to them.
Kirsty holds a Level 5 foundation degree in counselling and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).
Background and approach
She has additional training in domestic abuse advocacy (IDVA), basic mental health, and bereavement support through Cruse. She is also working towards a qualification in children and young people work. In sessions she listens without judgement and adapts conversations to suit each person.
She says therapy is collaborative and that plans are shaped around a person’s specific needs and goals. Practical topics such as communication and trust are addressed directly when those issues come up. Kirsty has experience supporting people through relationship repair and communication difficulties.
She helps individuals and couples talk through hurt, rebuild trust and find clearer ways to talk to one another. Her broader work covers a wide range of concerns including attachment issues, abandonment, codependency, chronic illness and pain, body image, caregiver stress, dissociation and neurodiversity such as autism and Asperger Syndrome.
She aims to meet people without blame and with practical focus on next steps. People who want straightforward, empathetic counselling and want to shape their own goals often find her approach helpful. Sessions are offered in English and can be arranged to fit different schedules.

Online support
Bereavement and loss work uses guided conversation and practical coping strategies to make grief more manageable. This kind of support can include learning ways to remember and adjust to life changes after a loss.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and decide together which methods match a person’s needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative process helps shape session content and pace.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text‑based messaging. Video is useful for face‑to‑face style conversation, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check‑ins and messaging lets people write when it fits their day. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or travel while keeping continuity of care.
