Kimberley Tyas, NCPS

Kimberley Tyas is a counsellor who brings three years of UK practice to conversations about stress, low mood and relationship strain. She uses a straightforward, listening-first approach and helps people find practical ways to cope. Kimberley offers video, phone, chat and messaging sessions to fit different needs.

She prefers a warm, non-judgemental style. Sessions begin with listening to what is happening now. Kimberley then works with each person to try short, practical strategies and worksheets that suit their situation. She also explores how past experiences and hopes for the future shape current difficulties.

People come to Kimberley for anxiety, depression, anger and grief. She also supports those facing communication problems, family problems, issues with forgiveness, guilt and shame, infidelity, isolation and self-harm. Conversations focus on immediate coping as well as longer-term ways forward.

Her practice draws on client-centred ways of working that prioritise the person’s own perspective. She also uses solution-focused techniques to move quickly towards small, achievable changes. Together these approaches aim to make sessions practical and grounded in daily life.

Kimberley explains what to expect and works at a steady, compassionate pace. If someone is unsure whether therapy will help, she offers straightforward steps to get started and tailors sessions to each person’s needs.

Approaches and online therapy that focus on solutions

Client-Centred Therapy places the person and their experience at the heart of the work. The counsellor listens without judgement and follows the person’s pace to help them clarify feelings and choices. This approach can help when someone needs steady emotional support and a space to be heard.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, practical steps that can change day-to-day life. It looks for strengths and what has worked before, then builds on those to set clear, achievable goals. This method suits people wanting to move quickly towards specific improvements such as better coping or clearer communication.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process and will be done together. Kimberley will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then try methods that match those aims. The plan can change as therapy progresses so sessions remain relevant.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video is useful for deeper conversations, phone works well if bandwidth is limited, chat and messaging suit short check-ins or days when typing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, caring responsibilities or busy routines while keeping the focus on steady progress with practical strategies.
