Kaye Barney

Kaye Barney works with people facing relationship difficulties, grief, low self-esteem, anxiety and depression. She draws on eight years of practice and uses a range of counselling approaches to help clients understand feelings and find more steadiness day to day.

People often come because their relationships are affecting work, sleep, mood or self-worth. Kaye listens to what matters most and helps clients talk through painful thoughts, manage strong emotions such as anger, and consider practical next steps. She keeps language direct and gentle so people can feel heard without feeling judged.

Her background includes a degree in Psychology and a degree in Counselling, plus a diploma in Relationship Counselling and a Foundation Certificate in Transactional Analysis. Kaye is a British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy member, shown as BACP, and she also holds accreditation with the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society. She teaches counselling trainees and provides clinical supervision to other counsellors.

In sessions she helps people explore patterns that repeat in relationships, cope with grief and loss, and address struggles like low confidence, eating and sleeping problems, or work stress. She also supports those working through abandonment issues, blended family concerns, caregiving strain, and recovery after betrayal or separation.

Kaye adapts her approach to each person’s needs and goals. She aims to help clients build clearer communication, healthier boundaries, and greater emotional stability. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange sessions according to the scheduling process on the site.

How Kaye’s approaches can help online

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at the ways early relationships affect how people relate now. It can help when trust, closeness or fears of abandonment are causing repeated conflict or distress. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and supporting a person to find their own answers, which suits people wanting a non-judgemental space to talk through painful feelings.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the client to decide which methods feel most helpful for their goals. That could mean using understanding of attachment patterns alongside practical steps to change unhelpful thinking and behaviour.

For practical planning, confirm the session formats before booking since this profile does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments around work, childcare or travel, reduce time spent commuting, and allow a shorter check-in when needed. Registered and accredited professionals can use different ways to meet people, and Kaye will help find an approach and rhythm that suits everyday life while focusing on the client’s priorities.
