Kerry Hyland, BACP

Kerry Hyland is an accredited psychotherapist based in the United Kingdom with ten years of clinical experience and accreditation from the BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She brings together psychological theory and humanistic client-centred practice to create an adaptable and creative therapeutic approach that responds to each person’s needs.

Kerry tailors her work to the individual, drawing on cognitive and behavioural techniques when addressing anxiety, and bringing in motivational work, visualisation and other wellbeing practices when those are more relevant. She typically works within a short-term framework while focusing on building a trusting therapeutic relationship quickly to support meaningful, lasting change.

Her background includes roles as a children’s counsellor in primary and secondary schools, a counsellor in a busy GP surgery, three years as a one-to-one mental health recovery worker in the community, and current work as a university student counsellor alongside a private psychotherapy practice where she offers individual therapy and bespoke wellbeing workshops. Kerry has experience with a wide range of presenting issues including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, addiction, relationship and intimacy concerns, neurodiversity and LGBT matters.

Kerry’s approach is inclusive and non-judgmental. She aims to empower people who have felt unheard by offering warm, grounded and empathetic support that honours each person’s humanity and potential.
