About Kerrie

Kerrie McCabe works with stress, anxiety, addictions, low self‑esteem and a wide range of life and relationship concerns, using a blend of person-centred and cognitive behavioural approaches. She is a BACP member and has six years' experience in counselling and therapy. Kerrie offers practical, conversational sessions that focus on what is happening now and on skills clients can use between meetings.

Kerrie uses person-centred methods alongside Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to match work to each person’s goals. Sessions aim to make thinking patterns clearer and to practise alternative ways of coping. Conversations are straightforward and paced to what the client can manage.

She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and elements of Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) when helpful. This can include learning techniques for managing intense feelings and for noticing values and priorities. The emphasis is on small, sustainable changes rather than quick fixes.

Kerrie supports people facing grief, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting strain and career stress. She works with issues such as sleeping problems, addiction, ADHD and compassion fatigue, and with a range of additional focus areas including body image, chronic illness and bereavement-related concerns.

Sessions are conducted in English and are for people in the United Kingdom. The subscription cost varies by location and can be cancelled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a first session is scheduled via the Talk to a counsellor online button.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions

The therapist uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thinking and to practise alternative responses. CBT is practical and works well for anxiety, low mood and sleep difficulties.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) which focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing actions that match personal values. ACT can help with motivation, coping with painful feelings and managing life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kerrie will discuss different methods with each person and choose techniques together based on needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative planning helps make sessions more relevant and practical.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals often adapt the mix of conversation and skills practice to suit remote appointments and day-to-day schedules.
