Kevin Wilde, BACP

Kevin Wilde is a BACP counsellor who focuses on practical, person-led therapy. He works with people feeling stressed, anxious, low or overwhelmed by life changes. He aims to make the first step easier and supports people as they look for clearer direction.

He believes clients are the experts in their own story. Sessions tend to focus on strengths already present and building useful tools to manage difficult moments. He uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and attachment-informed work to respond to different concerns.

Kevin has five years of experience across NHS and independent settings. That background shapes a straightforward, down-to-earth style. He pays attention to how relationships, grief and past hurt affect day-to-day wellbeing.

Therapy can cover a wide range of issues, including parenting strain, relationship and intimacy difficulties, sleep problems, anger and self-esteem. He also works with people dealing with trauma and abuse, bipolar mood concerns, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.

His practice aims to be collaborative. He listens, offers practical steps and adapts approaches to what each person needs. People choosing to start therapy are invited to notice small changes between sessions and use those shifts to build longer-term goals.

How these approaches work online and in practice

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts without getting stuck in them. It focuses on actions that match personal values and can be useful for anxiety, low mood and life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behaviour that keep problems going. It offers simple experiments and tools to change unhelpful habits and improve daily functioning. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationships shape current connection and trust, helping with intimacy, abandonment concerns and relationship struggles.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then suggest methods to try together. Sessions are collaborative and may mix techniques to fit what feels most helpful for the individual.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people join from different locations while keeping regular contact with a registered or accredited professional as they work on coping, relationships and day-to-day routines.
