Kerrie McCabe, BACP

Kerrie McCabe is a counsellor with six years of clinical experience based in the United Kingdom. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Kerrie works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, depression and many life transitions. She aims to offer a warm and approachable presence for those who find it hard to talk about difficult feelings.

Kerrie uses a mix of approaches to match each person’s needs, including cognitive behavioural ideas and person-centred listening. Sessions focus on practical steps as well as understanding how current problems developed. She supports people dealing with grief, trauma, relationship strain, intimacy issues and self-esteem difficulties.

People often come for help with sleep problems, parenting strain, career stress or coping with chronic illness. Kerrie also works with concerns such as ADHD, bipolar mood difficulties, boundaries and codependency. She pays attention to how attachment and past losses shape present behaviour.

In sessions she balances empathic listening with clear, practical tools. She uses mindful exercises, behavioural strategies and skills drawn from dialectical approaches when needed. Humour may be used when appropriate to ease tension and build rapport.

Kerrie offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging so people can choose what fits their life. Sessions are arranged through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire and scheduling step links people with a suitable session time.

Therapeutic approaches and online therapy options

Kerrie often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck and to focus on the values that give life meaning. This approach can be useful for anxiety, depression and coping with life changes.

She also draws on Client-Centred Therapy, which puts the person’s experience at the centre of sessions. That means listening carefully, reflecting back what’s said and working at the person’s pace to build understanding and self-acceptance.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Kerrie will discuss goals, preferences and day-to-day realities to decide which methods are most helpful. That choice is made collaboratively and can change as a person progresses.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different situations. Video calls are useful for face-to-face dialogue and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is low or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief updates, ongoing support between sessions or when someone prefers writing to talking.

These remote formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring responsibilities and travel, while keeping sessions consistent even when life is busy.
