About Kim

Kim Johnson helps people address stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, sleep difficulties, depression, addictions and relationship concerns. She works with issues such as intimacy-related problems, anger, self-esteem, career change, coping with life transitions and compassion fatigue. Kim is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has five years of professional experience.

Her approach centres on listening and adapting sessions to what each person brings. She uses client-centred techniques to focus on the person's own goals. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy methods are drawn on to identify patterns of thinking and behaviour that cause distress.

Kim also uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy and Imago relationship ideas when relationship matters are in focus, and she includes mindfulness practices to help with stress and sleep. Sessions are conversational and practical, with time spent on skills and short exercises when these are useful.

She has worked with people affected by cancer, caregivers under pressure, and those facing grief, hospice and end-of-life matters. Other concerns she has supported include dissociation, domestic violence, sexual assault and abuse, obsessive-compulsive difficulties, panic attacks and issues connected with narcissism and jealousy.

Fees vary with location and use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, use the Talk to a counsellor online button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.

Therapeutic approaches and working online

Kim commonly uses Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in her work. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and helping people set their own goals, which can help with low mood, self-esteem and relationship concerns. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at thoughts and behaviour patterns and introduces practical techniques to reduce anxiety and improve sleep.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kim will discuss different methods and agree what fits best with a person's goals and preferences, so the choices are made together rather than imposed.

The biography does not specify which session formats are used, so please confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into everyday life, for example by saving travel time, allowing a shorter check-in during a work break, or offering a session without being on camera when that feels better. Many people find that using these ways of working helps them keep therapy consistent alongside other commitments.
