About Kerrie

Kerrie McCabe is a counsellor with six years of experience based in the United Kingdom. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and supports people through a wide range of emotional and life challenges. Kerrie combines warmth and approachability with a practical focus on the things that matter to each person.

Kerrie blends client-centred work with cognitive behavioural tools to meet individual needs. Sessions aim to help people understand themselves more clearly. They also focus on building coping strategies that fit day-to-day life.

She works with concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, addictions and low self-esteem. Other areas she helps people with include relationship and intimacy-related issues, grief, trauma and abuse, parenting stress, career worries, ADHD and compassion fatigue. Jealousy is also listed among her focus areas.

Kerrie uses short exercises and reflective conversation in sessions. She brings kindness and a straightforward style, and she believes humour can help when it feels right. The work is collaborative - goals are agreed together and progress is reviewed as therapy continues.

People can expect an open, non-judgemental space to talk through problems at their own pace. Kerrie aims to help people build practical skills while also making sense of difficult feelings and patterns that get in the way.

Therapeutic approaches useful in online work

Many clients benefit from straightforward explanations of what different approaches involve. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people accept difficult thoughts and commit to actions that match their values; it can be useful for anxiety, stress and living with long-term difficulties. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses practical exercises to change patterns that cause distress; this is often used for anxiety, low mood and unhelpful habits.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. The therapist will work with the person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. That choice is made together and can change as the work progresses.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, cut travel time and offer more flexible scheduling. It can also allow short check-ins when a full in-person session is hard to arrange. Registered or accredited professionals, including therapists, will help plan sessions so they suit the person's daily routine and preferences.
