About Sherine
Sherine Kerr is a counsellor who draws on attachment-focused and psychodynamic ideas alongside solution-focused work. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, low mood and relationship concerns, and she is particularly attuned to issues around parenting and family matters. Sherine offers a warm and interactive style.
Sessions are tailored to each person, with straightforward conversation and practical steps when these are helpful. She treats people with sensitivity and respect while keeping the work grounded and usable in everyday life.
Background and approach
Her practice looks at how past relationships shape present patterns. That can help when someone struggles with attachment, abandonment or repeated hurt in relationships. Psychodynamic thinking helps make sense of feelings that recur over time, while solution-focused techniques aim to build small, achievable changes.
With three years of experience she has supported clients through grief, trauma and life changes. Sherine also helps with anger, intimacy-related issues, sleep problems and questions about purpose and career direction. She recognises that each person’s situation is different and adjusts her way of working to fit those differences.
Sessions are conducted in English and take place with people based in the United Kingdom. Sherine explains the steps to get started clearly and will help people choose the session style that suits them best.

How attachment and short-term approaches work online
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current bonds and emotional patterns. Online sessions can help people notice those patterns and try new ways of relating that feel safer and more supported.Psychodynamic Therapy focuses on recurring feelings and themes that affect daily life. Through reflective conversation a person can begin to understand why certain reactions keep happening and find different responses over time.
Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, practical steps and desired outcomes. It is useful when someone wants quick, manageable changes they can practise between sessions.
Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Sherine will talk with each person about goals, preferences and what feels most useful. Together they decide whether to emphasise attachment work, psychodynamic reflection or solution-focused strategies and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or chat are useful for shorter check-ins or when daily journalling and quick reflections help with progress.
