About Kay Tarry

Kay Tarry brings ten years of focused experience helping people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or traumatised take practical steps toward feeling better and living the life they want. She listens carefully, asks thoughtful questions, offers gentle challenges when helpful, and works with clients to set achievable goals and put the past to rest so positive change can take root.

Her background centers on supporting people who have experienced abuse, neglect, bullying or other traumatic events, and she also works with those struggling with low self-esteem, low confidence and anxiety. Kay adopts a pluralistic approach, tailoring each session to an individual’s needs rather than relying on a single method. She blends different therapeutic theories and draws on clients’ own strengths, knowledge and life experience to create sessions that fit.

Kay holds the NCPS credential, a recognition that indicates membership in a professional counselling and psychotherapy society and commitment to ongoing professional standards. Over the last decade her passion has been guiding people from feeling lost or overwhelmed toward healthier coping, greater resilience and clearer direction.

Therapeutic approaches and flexible online sessions

Kay often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Attachment-Based Therapy to guide her online work. ACT helps people clarify what matters to them and build practical habits that support those values, which can be useful for anxiety, stress and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy explores relational patterns formed in early relationships and how they affect current connections, making it helpful for relationship difficulties, abandonment concerns and attachment issues.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process and Kay works collaboratively with each person to identify what fits best. Registered professionals and therapists typically adapt methods to match a client’s goals, preferences and life context, and Kay tailors interventions so they feel relevant and manageable.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility - video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging allow therapy to fit around work, family and daily life. These options can make it easier to maintain continuity of care, try different communication styles, and access support from home while working together toward meaningful change.
