Kerry Davidson

Tuesday - Friday 8.00am - 8.30pm

I am passionate about helping adults work with loss, self-esteem and relationship difficulties so that you can have better, more fulfilling lives.

You may be struggling with:

• Anxiety
• Panic Attacks
• Stress
• Depression
• Bereavement - death of a partner, child, baby, miscarriage, friend, loved one or pet.
• Carers
• Loss - any change creates loss and grief. Loss of your hopes and dreams.
• Low Self-Esteem or Self-Confidence
• Family Issues - conflict, estrangement, abuse, neglect.
• Relationship Issues - divorce, affairs, domestic and/or emotional abuse, poor sex life, infertility.
• Childlessness - whether by choice or not.
• Sex problems
• Loneliness

We are all unique and will each struggle in our own way from time to time. I am here to work collaboratively with you to overcome whatever it is you are going through and create the life you wish for.

I am a Relational Integrative Counsellor which means I work with a variety of therapeutic models (Person-Centred, Psychodynamic, Cognitive) to best suit your needs within each session, whilst always holding our therapeutic relationship at the core. Additionally, I may incorporate Mindfulness, Self-Compassion, Psychosexual and DBT skills in the work. I endeavour to create a therapy that works for you so please let me know if you have any special requirements.

Qualifications & Experience:

• BACP Accredited Diploma in Integrative Counselling (NHS College)
• BACP Accredited Certificate in Counselling Skills
• Certificate in Psychosexual Studies (In Progress)
• BSc Economics with Econometrics
  
• Volunteer Bereavement, Carer and End-Of-Life/Palliative Care Counsellor at The Heart of Kent Hospice.
• Counsellor at Making Miracles (Baby Trauma and Bereavement).
• Worked at MIND.

I work via Telephone and Online (Zoom or Skype). In-Person services are currently restricted due to Covid-19.

I start with an assessment then suggest 6 sessions. Sometimes this is enough, other times the work is ongoing and happens over months or years. I also believe that therapy can be useful for ongoing self-care - you might not have a major issue to work through, you might just want some support. 

I offer sessions biweekly, weekly, fortnightly or monthly.
