About Kimberley
Kimberley Daly is a BACP counsellor who offers a calm, practical way of working. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, low mood and relationship concerns while also addressing trauma, addiction and grief. Kimberley aims to make therapy feel straightforward and real, not overly formal or confusing.
Sessions start with what the person needs that day. Kimberley listens and helps people decide whether they want tools, time to process, or a simpler conversation to work out next steps.
How Kimberley works
Her style is warm and down-to-earth, with an emphasis on being heard and respected. Her work covers a wide range of difficulties such as intimacy issues, compulsive behaviours, anger, isolation and career stress. She also supports people dealing with chronic illness and pain who are tired of carrying the practical and emotional load alone.
Kimberley pays attention to how past experiences can keep showing up in day-to-day life. She uses a mix of approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioural ideas, client-centred listening and solution-focused conversations. Trauma-focused methods are also part of her practice when past events are causing ongoing problems.
These approaches are used flexibly to match what each person brings. Kimberley has five years of experience and is based in the United Kingdom. She works with people from many backgrounds, and sessions are offered in English.
She describes herself as sex-positive and kink-aware when discussing sexual wellbeing and intimacy concerns. Therapy with Kimberley is collaborative. People are encouraged to set the pace and shape the work so it fits their life and goals.

Online support options
Approach-driven online therapy that fits your life
Kimberley draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centred work to help people live with difficult thoughts and feelings rather than trying to fight them. ACT focuses on values and practical steps so people can move towards what matters, even when emotions feel heavy. Client-centred therapy offers a listening, non-judgemental space where the person’s own perspective guides the pace and focus of sessions.She also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to spot unhelpful thinking and gently test new ways of responding. CBT-style work is useful for anxiety, mood difficulties and unhelpful behaviour patterns because it breaks issues down into manageable steps and tasks. Kimberley will work collaboratively with each person to choose the approaches that match their goals and comfort level rather than imposing one method.
Online therapy with Kimberley is offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to give practical flexibility. Video sessions are good for face-to-face conversation and keeping a regular time. Phone sessions can fit a busy day or require less bandwidth. Live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins, quick problem-solving or people who prefer to write. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and health needs while keeping the work focused and goal-oriented.
