About Kerry
Kerry Perkins helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain and parenting pressures. She also supports those coping with trauma, grief, low self-esteem and life changes. Kerry is based in the United Kingdom and works in English.
She is a member of the NCPS (National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society). Kerry uses straightforward, person-centred ways of working. Sessions focus on what matters most to the client.
She listens, reflects and helps people find practical steps they can try between meetings.
How Kerry works
Kerry draws on cognitive behavioural tools when thoughts and behaviours are causing distress. Her approach aims to build on strengths while offering clear ideas for change. That may include spotting unhelpful thinking patterns, practising different responses, and trying new communication strategies.
Kerry pays attention to family dynamics, parenting challenges and intimacy-related worries when those are part of the picture. Clients can bring issues such as abandonment fears, codependency, body image, guilt and shame, impulsivity or workplace stress. She also supports people through pregnancy and childbirth concerns and fatherhood issues.
The focus is on simple, manageable steps rather than complex theory. Kerry has three years of professional experience and holds NCPS membership. She offers sessions by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging.
To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to therapist availability.

How Kerry's client-centred and CBT approaches work online
Kerry uses client-centred therapy to build a trusting working relationship. This approach focuses on listening, reflecting and helping the client find their own answers. It is useful when someone needs a supportive space to make sense of feelings and decisions.She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. CBT offers simple tools to test unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviours, which can help with anxiety, low mood and stress-related problems.
Deciding which approach to use is collaborative. Kerry will work with the client to identify goals, try techniques and check what helps. The method can change over time depending on progress and practical needs.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging so people can choose what fits their life. Video calls suit focused talking work, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a quick check-in, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between appointments. These options make therapy more flexible for different schedules and situations.
