Kristi DomeneyBACP

Kristi Domeney is a BACP counsellor who focuses on supporting people through stress, anxiety, trauma and grief. She is experienced with pregnancy and childbirth related concerns and with parenting challenges. Kristi writes in plain terms and aims to make therapy feel calm and manageable for worried parents and carers.

Kristi has worked in primary and secondary school settings and with Primary Care Network clients. Her background includes helping people aged 5 to 25 and parents to talk through anxiety, self-harm, trauma, abuse and attachment difficulties. She has experience supporting children in foster care and people who are neurodiverse, using tools such as the PANDA approach.

Sessions often include art and play alongside talking, so conversations can feel less pressured. She offers both short and longer therapy agreements depending on what is needed, and practical coping strategies for moments of strong emotion or anxiety.

Kristi aims to create a kind, reflective space where parents and individuals can make small, steady changes. She uses Attachment-Based, Client-Centred and Psychodynamic ideas to understand relationships and patterns that affect daily life.

Her work is down-to-earth and practical. People can expect a calm presence, options for different ways to express themselves, and an emphasis on building tools that help with day-to-day stress and parenting strains.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Kristi draws on Attachment-Based and Client-Centred ideas alongside Psychodynamic thinking. Attachment-Based work looks at how relationships shape emotions and connection, which can help with parenting and attachment concerns. Client-Centred therapy focuses on listening without judgement and following the client’s pace, helping people feel heard and understood. Psychodynamic ideas look at patterns and past experiences to understand repeated struggles and emotional responses.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Kristi will work with each person to decide what feels most helpful for their goals and situation. That decision is collaborative and can change as needs evolve during work together.

If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the current session options before booking because formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and offer ways to continue support without travel. Registered or accredited professionals, including therapists using these approaches, can adapt tools like art-based exercises, emotion regulation strategies and reflective conversation to an online setting to support parenting and perinatal concerns.
