About Kimberly
Kimberly Bennett is a counsellor and a Registered Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with 19 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, grief, self-esteem and life changes. Sessions are also used to address trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping problems, and ADHD-related concerns.
Her approach begins by listening. She focuses on how a person is feeling and what they want to change. Conversations are paced to the individual and shaped around practical steps as well as talking through feelings. Reviews happen at set points so work can be adjusted if needed.
Kimberly uses a blend of methods including Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness and Somatic techniques. That mix allows her to help with unhelpful thoughts, bodily tension linked to stress or trauma, and short-term goal work for immediate problems. She also draws on Solution-Focused ideas when clients want to build small, achievable changes.
She has recent experience supporting people through bereavement after working in a hospice setting for two years. Kimberly also supports people with neurodivergence and holds a Diploma in Autism to assist with communication, sensory differences and social interaction challenges whether a formal diagnosis is present or not.
Clients who prefer remote work can access sessions by phone or online as Kimberly has experience delivering therapy that way. Fees vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first appointment.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what the client says so sessions can centre on whatever feels most pressing. This approach helps people who need space to talk through confusing feelings, relationship patterns, or decisions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviours and uses practical exercises to reduce unhelpful patterns. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and for changing unhelpful habits.Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will work with the client to decide which methods suit their goals, needs and preferences. Reviews are built into the work so approaches can be adjusted if something is not helping.
Kimberly has experience delivering therapy online and by phone, but specific session formats should be confirmed before booking. Online sessions can make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Phone work can be helpful when video would be difficult, and remote sessions let people continue their work during life changes without needing to attend in person.
