About Denise
Denise Kerr is a psychotherapist with 15 years of experience. She holds a BACP credential and trained in psychotherapy and counselling after studying psychology. She offers an individualised way of working and aims to help people move forward from difficult feelings.
She uses a mix of approaches rather than one fixed method. That allows sessions to be shaped around a person's needs, mood and life situation. People meet a calm, listening presence who helps them name emotions and try new ways of responding.
Background and approach
Sessions often begin with practical goals and simple steps. Denise helps people work through anxiety, low mood and stress by looking at patterns in thoughts and relationships. She also supports those dealing with grief, loss and issues around self-worth.
Attachment and Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas are part of her work. These approaches help when past relationships affect how someone feels or connects now. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used too to address unhelpful thinking and everyday coping.
Denise also uses psychodynamic ideas to look at longer-standing patterns that keep recurring. Coaching-style conversations support career or personal development goals. Her aim is steady progress through clear, practical steps and open conversation.
She works in English and accepts international clients. Sessions are offered in several formats to fit different schedules and needs.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches work online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people name and work with powerful feelings that shape relationships and behaviour. Online sessions can use EFT to notice patterns in how someone reacts and to try different responses in the moment.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships influence current ways of relating. In remote sessions this approach helps people identify repeating dynamics and practise new ways of connecting and feeling safer in relationships.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying practical steps to change them. CBT is well suited to online formats because tasks and short exercises can be agreed in session and practised between meetings.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk through options and decide together what fits the client's goals and preferences. This collaborative process can include trying an approach for a few sessions and then adjusting as needed.
Online sessions offer flexibility for different schedules and needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual connection matters. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit around work. Live chat and text-based messaging provide brief check-ins or ongoing reflection without a full appointment. Registered or accredited professionals adapt formats so therapy can fit into everyday life.
