About Kaye
Kaye Barney is a counsellor with eight years' experience helping people navigate common life problems. She works with issues such as relationships, low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, grief and sleep difficulties. Kaye aims to make conversations direct and easy to follow so clients can begin to feel steadier and more able to cope.
Kaye believes our relationships shape how we feel about ourselves and the world. She helps people untangle problems with partners, family, friends and workmates, and to notice how those patterns affect confidence, motivation and mood. She also supports people dealing with loss, bereavement and life changes.
In sessions Kaye uses a mix of approaches to suit the person in front of her. That can mean looking at current thinking patterns, tracing relationship histories, or focusing on the person’s immediate concerns. The aim is practical: to understand what is happening and try different ways to change it.
She trained in psychology and counselling and holds a diploma in relationship counselling. Kaye is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, which is listed among her credentials. She also teaches counselling and supervises other counsellors.
People come to Kaye for a wide range of problems including parenting strain, eating and body image issues, stress at work, burnout or compassion fatigue, ADHD-related struggles, and challenges around intimacy. She works in English and accepts international clients, and uses a subscription system for sessions that can be cancelled at any time.
How Kaye’s approaches translate to online work
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how past and present relationships shape current feelings and reactions. It helps people understand patterns that cause anxiety, mistrust or avoidance in close relationships and supports changes in how they relate to others. Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the heart of the work. The therapist listens without judgement, reflects what is said, and helps the person find their own solutions to problems like low self-esteem, stress or grief. Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Kaye will talk about your goals and preferences and adapt methods to what suits you best. The focus is collaborative: she helps you test ways of thinking and relating and checks in about what is helpful. Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions around work, family life or sleep schedules and avoiding travel time. Online work can make it easier to keep regular appointments and to use short check-ins when life gets busy.
