Dr Danielle Kerley

I am a qualified Clinical Psychologist registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC). Alongside my private work, I work in an NHS service based within Children’s Social Care, working to promote mental health and promote wellbeing among the entire family.

​

Most people have times in their lives where things feel like a struggle, and people come to therapy for a variety of reasons. My approach therefore seeks to explore not what is wrong with someone, but what has happened to them, and what sense they are making of their experience.

​

Whatever their circumstances, I am passionate about providing the right support to those who need it, as well as supporting individuals to recognise their own strengths and resources. I have experience of working both with adults and with children, young people and families, using an integrative and trauma-informed approach. My practice typically incorporates techniques from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (including ‘third wave’ approaches), Narrative Exposure Therapy and Systemic Therapy, among others.

​

Meeting with a therapist for the first time can be daunting, but I hope that my compassionate and relaxed approach will help you to feel at ease. I hope that you will come away from each session feeling as though you have been truly heard and respected.

 

Therapy can be offered on a shorter- or longer-term basis, depending on the needs of the individual. We would regularly review our sessions to ensure that they are still helpful to you.

​

I am currently able to offer weekend and evening appointments outside of typical working hours, either online or in-person.

Please do get in touch if you would like to discuss further.
