About Kim
Kim Gregory works with adults on a wide range of issues and aims to make the first steps straightforward and gentle. She speaks plainly and listens closely to understand each person’s immediate worries and priorities. Conversations are practical and focused on what the client wants to change.
Kim uses a mix of approaches tailored to each person. She commonly draws on client-centred work to follow what matters most to the client, cognitive behavioural techniques to spot and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, and mindfulness methods to build calm and present-moment skills.
How Kim works
Sessions are shaped together so they fit the client’s life and goals. Her seven years of practice have included support for stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar difficulties, ADHD, addictions and grieving, among other concerns. She also helps people with relationship and intimacy questions, parenting strain, body image, chronic illness, sleep and eating problems, and career pressures.
Additional focuses include attachment and abandonment issues, autism and blended family matters. Kim describes her manner as warm and straightforward. She offers a balance of listening and gentle challenge to help people understand patterns and try different ways of coping.
Clients are invited to feed back about what does or does not feel helpful as therapy progresses. Sessions can use practical tools, reflective conversation and homework tasks when useful. Kim encourages questions at any time and aims to respond to messages promptly.
Work begins by clarifying goals and agreeing how best to move forward together.

Approaches and how they work online
Client-centred therapy focuses on the person's own priorities and experiences, giving space to be heard and to set the pace of work. It helps clarify what matters most and supports people to make choices that fit their life.Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep and behaviour change tasks.
Dialectical behaviour therapy, DBT, offers skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance and clearer communication, which can be useful for intense emotions and relationship problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try different methods and adjust the plan based on what helps most. This is a collaborative process where the client’s needs and preferences guide choices about techniques and focus.
Online sessions by video and phone make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare or mobility limits, while live chat and text messaging allow shorter check-ins and written reflection between sessions. These formats give flexibility for different days and different tasks, from a longer reflective session by video to a brief skills check in text.
