About Kirstine

Kirstine Hunter is a humanistic counsellor registered with the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy). She offers a warm, accepting approach and adapts her way of working to the individual, believing that a non-judgemental conversation can increase awareness of how someone relates to themselves, others and the wider world.

Her practice includes both private work and voluntary roles. She has volunteered for various counselling organisations, including three years in a bereavement setting and work with an LGBT+ organisation. These experiences have informed her interest in individuality and how personal differences shape people’s lives and relationships.

Kirstine has worked with a range of concerns, including anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, identity issues and loss, and she aims to support people in finding ways to feel less overwhelmed. Her background in the health sector, specifically in a cancer setting, contributes to her understanding of how physical health and life changes can affect mental wellbeing. She is particularly passionate about providing mental health support for people experiencing menopausal or other hormonal changes.

Kirstine typically offers sessions on Mondays and Wednesdays, and she brings a humanistic focus that centres the person in the therapeutic process.

How ACT and CBT shape online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice and make space for difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying what matters most to them. It focuses on building psychological flexibility and supporting values-guided actions, often used for issues such as anxiety, stress and identity-related concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) explores the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours, offering practical strategies to identify and shift unhelpful patterns. CBT is commonly applied for anxiety, low mood and self-esteem work, and for developing coping skills for everyday challenges.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Kirstine will work collaboratively to determine which methods best suit a client’s needs, goals and preferences. She adapts her humanistic orientation to complement ACT or CBT techniques where helpful, and she involves clients in shaping the way they work together.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging, which can make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and health commitments. These formats offer flexibility in scheduling and allow clients to engage from home or other convenient locations, supporting continuity of care during life changes or busy periods.
