Kimberley Wheeler, BACP

Kimberley Wheeler is a BACP counsellor who focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, grief and intimacy-related issues. She offers a calm, non-judgemental presence and aims to help people find their own answers. Sessions are built around what the person wants to talk about and how they prefer to work.

Kim has four years' experience and has worked alongside people affected by cancer and with a suicide bereavement group. That experience shaped her understanding of loss, fear and the slow process of rebuilding day-to-day life.

Her approach is rooted in Humanistic, or client-centred, counselling. That means listening closely, reflecting what is said, and helping people notice their own choices. She also draws on other techniques when they fit the person’s needs and goals.

In practice she helps people manage low mood, relationship and communication problems, confidence and identity questions, and changes such as parenting challenges or career shifts. She also supports people with intimacy-related concerns and a range of neurodiversity and attachment issues.

Kim places a strong emphasis on the therapeutic relationship. She encourages open conversation about what is and isn’t helpful in sessions. This keeps the work focused and responsive to each person's pace and priorities.

To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and arrange sessions according to the booking process. Fees vary with location and the service uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

Client-centred work adapted for online sessions

Client-centred therapy focuses on listening, empathy and supporting the person to find their own solutions. The counsellor reflects what is said, asks gentle questions and helps people notice possibilities for change. This approach is often useful for issues like anxiety, low mood, self-esteem and identity concerns.

Kim also practises from a humanistic perspective and may draw on other helpful techniques when appropriate. Those additional methods are used to complement the core client-centred stance and to meet practical needs in session. Together the choices are discussed openly so the person and counsellor decide what fits best.

If you are considering online therapy, check the available session options before booking as the profile does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed and reduce travel time. The counsellor will collaborate with each person to choose how to meet in a way that suits their goals, schedule and comfort.
