Kirsty Woodier

I am an Integrative Counsellor and Psychotherapist that can utilise a number of modalities depending on your needs and goals of counselling. However, my predominant approach to counselling is humanistic or, more specifically, person
centred. Thus, I will provide a safe and non-judgmental space for you to openly talk about your issues and support you in meeting your goals, offering empathy and compassion throughout the counselling process.

In my EAP role, I offer short term integrative therapy (between 6 -12 counselling sessions) to adults struggling with a variety of issues, such as depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, work-related stress, bullying, bereavement, low self-worth / esteem and have also gained experience of working with neurodivergence and differences as well as mild addiction.

I have also volunteered as a bereavement counsellor at Marie Curie West Midlands Hospice, offering adults who are suffering from grief and loss face to face counselling.

Prior to my role as a counsellor, I gained over nine years’ experience of working in the third sector, planning, and delivering a portfolio of programmes that aim to increase the welfare of young people and adults with complex needs, from different
backgrounds and disadvantaged communities, which has shaped my counselling practice.

I have experience of working with :

Relationship issues
Divorce
Abuse
Family conflict
Work related stress
Parenting challenges
Bereavement
Low self worth / esteem
Neurodivergence
Trauma
Bullying
Depression
Anxiety
