Kerry Vineer , BACP

Kerry Vineer is a psychotherapist with 22 years of practice in the United Kingdom. She works with people facing relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, intimacy problems and depression. Kerry aims to create a respectful and compassionate space where clients can begin to untangle difficult feelings and make practical changes.

Kerry uses a client-centred approach that focuses on each person's priorities. Sessions are shaped around what matters most to the individual rather than a fixed programme. She adapts the pace and focus to suit different issues and life stages.

Alongside her main areas of practice, Kerry has experience supporting people dealing with sexual difficulties, gender dysphoria, body image concerns and a range of relationship styles including polyamory and non-monogamy. She also works with people affected by sexual assault, infidelity, separation and process-related addictions such as problematic porn use.

Kerry emphasises respect, sensitivity and dignity in her work. She describes therapy as a collaborative process where the client's voice guides each session. Her aim is to help people feel more confident in making the changes they want.

For people who choose to start, Kerry will tailor sessions to meet individual needs and goals. She supports clients to identify small, realistic steps forward and to build on the progress they make over time.

Client-centred care and online therapy options

Client-Centred Therapy places the client's experience at the heart of each session. The counsellor listens carefully and follows your lead, helping you to make sense of feelings and choices. This approach is useful for relationship troubles, grief, intimacy issues and depression because it focuses on what you find most important.

In practice, the focus is on understanding your perspective and building a trusting working relationship. The therapist will work with you to decide which methods and session rhythms feel most helpful. Deciding what approach fits best is a joint process that can change as your needs do, so you remain in control of the work.

Online sessions can be arranged as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls suit longer conversations and face-to-face style contact, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be useful for shorter check-ins, and messaging lets you send thoughts between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring responsibilities and travel, and allow different ways of communicating depending on your comfort and goals.
