About Kerry

Kerry Rudman is a counsellor who helps people facing parenting challenges, anxiety, stress and life changes. She uses straightforward, kind conversation to help parents feel clearer about choices and next steps. Kerry works in English and brings five years of experience to sessions.

She is registered with the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society - NCPS. Kerry draws on a mix of approaches to suit each person's needs. She often uses client-centred work to listen and reflect what matters most to the client.

Background and approach

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, is used when practical steps and changes in thinking can ease anxiety or sleep problems. Attachment-based ideas are brought in when relationships or early patterns affect current parenting and connection. Narrative techniques help people reframe difficult stories about themselves and their parenting.

Motivational interviewing supports people who want to change habits such as addictive behaviours or sleep routines. Sessions are conversational and aim to be clear about goals and next steps. Kerry prefers daytime hours, with some evening and weekend appointments available; most sessions are 9am to 3pm.

She works remotely with video calls, phone, live chat and text-based messaging. Kerry’s practice suits people who want a practical, compassionate counsellor to talk through parenting stresses, grief, self-esteem and related concerns. She helps clients map small changes that can have a big effect on daily life.

Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Kerry commonly uses client-centred work which focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the client. This helps parents feel heard and make decisions that suit their situation.

She also employs Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, to identify unhelpful thought patterns and try practical changes. CBT can be useful for anxiety, sleep problems and low mood because it links thoughts, feelings and actions in clear steps.

Attachment-based ideas are used when early relationship patterns affect current parenting or closeness. This approach helps people notice recurring interaction styles and try new ways of connecting.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and then jointly decide which methods to try. That collaborative process can be adjusted as needs change over time.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for busy parents. Video calls provide face-to-face conversation without travel. Phone sessions or live chat can be shorter check-ins or fit into a break at work. Text-based messaging lets people reflect and respond in writing when that suits their schedule. These formats make it easier to keep therapy consistent alongside daily commitments.
