About Kerry
Kerry Hatton is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with eight years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem and depression. Kerry focuses on practical conversations that help people regain clarity and steadiness when life feels overwhelming.
Kerry views each person as the expert on their own story and looks for strengths to build on. Sessions are conversational and goal-focused. She listens for patterns that keep problems repeating and helps people try different ways of responding to old hurts.
Her work also covers issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, body image, caregiver strain, chronic illness and pain, communication problems, and control issues. She supports people dealing with divorce and separation, forgiveness, guilt and shame, impulsivity, isolation, life purpose and midlife concerns.
Kerry draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to bring structure to sessions. That means using clear steps and practical strategies to manage symptoms and develop new habits. She helps people try techniques between meetings so progress continues outside sessions.
People meet Kerry to talk through specific problems or to work on longer term patterns. She aims to make sessions straightforward and usable, focusing on what can be done differently in day-to-day life. To begin, clients follow the site process to match and schedule an initial appointment.
How evidence-based approaches are used in online sessions
Many counsellors who use evidence-based techniques focus on clear steps you can try between sessions. Cognitive approaches help people notice and change thoughts that increase anxiety or guilt, and they teach practical coping skills for day-to-day life. Trauma-informed work helps slow down distressing memories and teaches grounding strategies to reduce overwhelm when memories arise.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and will help decide which methods to try first. That decision is collaborative and can change as you learn what helps most.
The original biographical details do not list specific session formats, so please confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings around work or family time, reduce travel, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. For some people video sessions work best, while others prefer phone sessions or different arrangements; the counsellor can discuss what will fit with your daily life.
