About me

Hello, I'm Kayleigh, an Integrative Counsellor and owner of In Bloom Counselling.

I am a warm and empathic counsellor working with adults, and I believe that meaningful change begins with feeling truly heard and understood. At the heart of my work is the therapeutic relationship, a space that feels safe, and trusting, where you can speak openly, explore gently, and be accepted exactly as you are. Wherever it is you find yourself right now is where I will meet you.

As an Integrative therapist I blend thoughtful training with genuine human connection. I offer a calm, supportive presence where clients feel seen, respected, and empowered to move toward meaningful change.

My training includes Person-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic Therapy, and Pluralistic practice. This allows us to work in a way that feels right for you. We might explore how past experiences influence your present, develop practical tools to manage anxiety or low mood, or reflect more deeply on recurring themes in your life and relationships. Our work is collaborative, we move at your pace, focusing on what feels most helpful and meaningful to you.

My Counselling practice is grounded in Person-Centred principles which focuses on the inherent worth and value of every individual. I understand each person has their own experiences that shape their unique understanding of the world. My role is to provide you with support, empathy, and understanding so you are free to explore your thoughts and feelings without fear or judgement.

Maybe you feel as though you have lost a part of yourself, or you find that you're stuck in a negative pattern/cycle. Whatever the reason, we can work collaboratively to aid discovery of your own solutions to achieve personal growth, healing, and authenticity in all aspects of your life.

I offer sessions in my warm and welcoming therapy room, as well as online and telephone counselling for those who prefer flexibility or feel more comfortable accessing support from home.

I also offer sessions for those bereaved by the loss of their pet. Our bond with animals can be just as deep and meaningful as our relationships with others. Losing a pet is profoundly painful, and the grief that follows is a testament to that connection. As a pet owner myself, I understand the immense impact pets have on both mental and physical well-being, as well as the abundance of unconditional love they bring into our lives. This can make it very difficult to adapt to life without them. Some people may experience a loss of identity from being the 'care giver' to a pet.

With additional courses undertaken in 'pet bereavement' I will be able to offer a supportive and understanding space.

I believe the relationship between therapist and client is crucial in the effectiveness of your therapy so providing you with a space where you feel safe is important. Feel free to get in touch for a free 15 minute consultation so you can experience myself and how we can work together. 

Mondays and Tuesdays I offer early morning appointments from 7am.

Member organisations

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.

Wheelchair-accessible premises should have step-free access for wheelchair users and individuals who are unable to climb stairs. If a Counsellor's premises aren't step-free, they may offer alternative services such as telephone/web-based appointments, home visits, or meeting clients in different location, so you can choose the option that suits you best.

You can contact the Counsellor to discuss the options available.
