Kimberley Daly , BACP

Kimberley Daly is a compassionate, experienced therapist who works with people facing a wide range of life challenges. She prefers an approachable, flexible way of working rather than rigid structure, offering time to process, practical tools, or simply a conversational place to begin. Kimberley values an environment where people feel heard, respected, and seen, and she tailors sessions to what feels right for each individual rather than fitting everyone into a single model.

Based in Devon and sharing her life with two dogs, Kimberley has spent her career supporting people from diverse backgrounds. She specifically understands the pressures that come with uniformed life and offers sensitive support to serving personnel, veterans, and their families. Living with type 1 diabetes herself, she also appreciates the emotional and practical load of managing a long-term health condition and supports people for whom illness or chronic pain affects daily life and wellbeing.

Kimberley works with people rather than labels, helping those navigating anxiety, low mood, trauma that continues to affect the present, relationship difficulties, sexual wellbeing, and the experience of feeling stuck or disconnected. She is training in psychosexual and relationship therapy and is a kink-aware, sex-positive practitioner. Kimberley brings evidence-informed approaches alongside warmth and collaboration to help clients find practical ways forward in their own time.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) supports people to notice difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that reflect their values. It can help with anxiety, low mood, and situations where avoidance is keeping life small. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns to reduce distress and improve coping - it is useful for anxiety, depression, and many common day-to-day difficulties. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a warm, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship where the therapist listens deeply and follows the client’s pace, which can be especially helpful for processing painful experiences and rebuilding self-trust.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Kimberley works collaboratively with people to determine which methods align with their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts her style so therapy feels useful and manageable for each individual.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions by video call or phone, and options for live chat or text-based messaging allow people to access consistent support from different locations and life situations. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family, mobility, or geographical constraints while maintaining ongoing contact with a licensed professional therapist.
