Kim Johnson

Kim Johnson is a counsellor with five years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief and sleeping difficulties. She also supports those coping with trauma, addiction, relationship and intimacy-related concerns. Kim aims to make first steps into therapy feel manageable and respectful.

Kim works in a straightforward, person-focused way. She listens first and tailors conversation to each person's needs. Sessions look at current problems and practical steps that can help day to day. She uses calming, mindful practices alongside talking-based work.

Her approach mixes Client-Centred Therapy with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy. That means space to be heard, help to spot unhelpful thinking, and support with emotions in close relationships. She also draws on Imago relationship ideas and Motivational Interviewing as needed.

Kim has a particular interest in supporting people facing major life challenges such as cancer, caregiving stress, and end-of-life concerns within hospice and end-of-life counselling contexts. She also works with issues like dissociation, domestic violence, OCD symptoms, and sexual assault recovery.

She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and arrange sessions through the service booking flow.

How therapeutic approaches shape online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on giving people a warm, non-judgemental space to talk and be heard; it helps when someone needs steady support and clearer self-understanding. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches simple skills to reduce anxiety, panic and low mood. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people name and work with strong emotions in close relationships and can be useful for intimacy and communication difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kim will discuss your goals and preferences and then try methods that fit your needs. That choice is collaborative - you and the therapist check what helps and adjust the plan together.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. It can reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins on days when a quick update is helpful. If you are considering online work, confirm the current session options when booking so you know how sessions are arranged. Many people find remote sessions a practical way to keep therapy consistent while juggling work, caregiving or health demands.
