Kimberley Daly, BACP

Kimberley Daly works in a warm, down-to-earth way that lets people bring whatever is on their mind. She offers a straightforward space for talking, figuring out next steps, or learning simple skills to cope. Kimberley names experience, tools and conversation as options rather than one fixed path.

She uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centred Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to shape sessions. That means some work focuses on values and action, some on listening and reflecting, and some on spotting and changing unhelpful thinking patterns. Sessions can involve practical exercises, gentle reflection, or problem-solving depending on what feels most useful.

Kimberley has five years of practice and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Her background includes helping people cope with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, addictions, and relationship or intimacy-related concerns. She also supports people dealing with chronic health conditions and the strain those bring to daily life.

Additional areas Kimberley focuses on include abandonment and attachment issues, communication problems, boundaries around kink and BDSM, chronic pain or illness, commitment and infidelity concerns, and feelings of isolation or emptiness. She also works with people facing life changes such as divorce and separation.

Sessions are offered in English and Kimberley accepts international clients. She aims for an unhurried and respectful tone and adapts to what each person needs at the time.

How Kimberley blends evidence-based approaches online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps towards those values, even when feelings or thoughts feel overwhelming. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and coping with long-term health conditions. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, empathy and building a trusting relationship so clients can make sense of their own experience and decide what to change. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behaviour and offers practical strategies to reduce distress and tackle problems day to day.

Choosing an approach is part of the work. Kimberley will talk with each person about goals and preferences, and together they will decide which methods to try first. That collaborative process means sessions can shift over time as needs change, blending listening, skills practice and short exercises as required.

Online therapy makes it easier to fit sessions into busy lives. Video calls let people use visual contact for deeper connection, phone sessions suit those who prefer not to be on camera, and live chat or text-based messaging allow brief check-ins or ongoing reflection between appointments. These options help people keep therapy going around work, family life, health appointments or travel while still working with registered or accredited professionals and therapists.
