About Kirsty
Kirsty Woodier is a counsellor and psychotherapist who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression and relationship problems. She offers a calm, non-judgemental space where clients can talk through painful experiences. Kirsty works from a person-centred stance and listens with empathy to understand each person’s situation.
She holds a BSc (Honours) in Psychology and a Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling, and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - BACP.
Background and approach
Kirsty maintains regular supervision and continues her professional development through courses and workshops. In sessions she combines a client-centred way of working with tools from cognitive behavioural approaches when these fit a person’s goals. That means she focuses on understanding how a person sees their difficulties, and then helps them try practical steps and new ways of responding where useful.
Kirsty supports people facing grief, trauma and abuse, addictions, low self-esteem and anger. She also works with those dealing with family problems, blended family issues, communication blocks, codependency and the fallout of divorce or separation. Her style is warm and straightforward.
Sessions aim to help people build clearer choices, reduce unhelpful patterns and find direction in life. Kirsty encourages small, manageable steps and ongoing reflection so change feels doable rather than overwhelming.

Approaches Kirsty lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy or CBT looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses practical steps and small experiments to reduce unhelpful patterns such as anxiety, low mood or compulsive behaviours. CBT can be useful for learning coping skills and changing routine habits that keep problems going.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Kirsty will work with each person to decide which methods suit their needs and goals. She adapts the balance between listening and practical tasks so therapy fits the individual rather than imposing one fixed style.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people meet face to face from different locations. Phone sessions and live chat are handy for shorter check-ins or when bandwidth is low. Text-based messaging can support ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare or other commitments.
