Kirsty Bees , BACP

Kirsty Bees is a UK-based therapist who blends integrative practice with cognitive behavioral therapy to meet each client’s unique needs. With five years of experience, she draws on both integrative techniques and CBT to offer structured, flexible support for people dealing with stress, anxiety, grief and loss, motivation challenges, low self-esteem, confidence issues, and depression.

Kirsty is accredited by the BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which reflects her professional standing within the counselling community in the United Kingdom. She focuses on helping clients identify practical coping strategies and on building skills that promote lasting, positive change in daily life.

Clients work with Kirsty to explore how thoughts, emotions, and behaviours interact, and to develop personal tools for managing life transitions, improving self-worth, and restoring motivation. She frames the first step into therapy as an act of courage and emphasizes that the process can be empowering and life-enhancing. Kirsty aims to create a collaborative environment where clients feel supported while working toward meaningful, sustainable outcomes.

Integrative and CBT approaches for online care

Kirsty uses cognitive behavioral therapy, a structured approach that helps people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. CBT is often used to address anxiety, low mood, stress, and difficulties with motivation and self-confidence by teaching practical skills and strategies to manage day-to-day challenges.

She also practices an integrative approach, drawing on a range of evidence-based therapeutic techniques and tailoring them to each person’s circumstances. This flexible method is helpful for complex or overlapping issues such as grief, life changes, body image concerns, and relationship or communication problems because it allows the therapist to combine methods that best suit the client.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Kirsty works with clients to explore their goals, preferences, and the issues they bring, and together they decide which methods feel most helpful and appropriate. Over time the plan can be adjusted as needs and priorities evolve.

Online sessions - by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging - offer flexibility and easier access for people with busy schedules, mobility constraints, or geographic limitations. These options allow clients to engage in consistent, ongoing work with a licensed professional from locations that fit their lives.
