About Kim
Kim Poyser is a counsellor in the United Kingdom with five years of private practice experience and a BACP membership. She supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship problems, depression, coping with life changes, grief, intimacy concerns, eating issues, parenting pressure and anger. Kim also lists work with LGBT matters, self-esteem and bipolar mood difficulties.
Kim draws on experience from pastoral counselling in further and higher education and two decades in social care. She has worked in local authority and private-sector roles, including solution-focused project work with Barnardo's and online counselling for Childline. That background informs how she speaks with people and plans sessions.
Her style is straightforward and person-centred. Sessions focus on what matters most to the client now. Kim listens, reflects what she hears and helps identify practical next steps to try between meetings.
She uses Client-Centred Therapy alongside Solution-Focused Therapy to combine attention to personal experience with concrete goal-setting. That mix is often used with people facing change, relationship strain, or recurring anger and frustration.
Kim is registered with the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP). She has a DBS check and professional insurance. Before booking, confirm the current session options and any other practical details you need to know.
Approaches used and how online sessions work
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what the client brings. It helps people feel heard and understand their own responses, which can be useful when anger is a recurring issue. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, practical steps and clear goals. It is often helpful for stress, relationship problems and finding manageable ways to respond to frustration.Deciding which approach fits best is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what has or has not helped before. That allows joint choices about whether to focus more on exploring feelings or on setting short-term actions to test between sessions.
Confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also be useful for people who want to try solution-focused tasks between meetings. Talk with the therapist about how you want to use sessions so they suit your day-to-day life.
