Coaching & Therapy
What might be helpful to know
My name is Kerry Nair. I am an Accredited Counsellor, and CAT Practitioner. I am also a Counselling Supervisor and Senior Coach Practitioner (accred) I currently work in the NHS as well as in private practice.
It may be that you are feeling stuck with some aspects of your life, or grappling with a decision.
I have particular (though not exclusive) interest with working with change especially in relation to transitions, change in identity and health issues.
I work with Individuals, adults and young people (16+)
Why Creative Integration?
Creative Integration therapy, although not a new approach, is the way I describe what i can offer to you. Creative Integration Therapy aims to ‘integrate’ a number of different Therapy approaches with the aim of finding a way of helping with whatever is troubling you.
I integrate psychotherapy approaches from Counselling, Cognitive Analytical Therapy (CAT), Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT) and the use of creative methods such as art making, creative writing and use of miniatures.
How we would work together.
I offer a safe, confidential space to allow you to find ways to manage patterns that may originate from your past, but are 'showing up' in your present. The origins of these difficulties may not be obvious to ourselves, or those around us, and can manifest as symptoms including anxiety, depression, or compulsive and self-harming relationships with ourselves or others.
I hope that we can enable a warm, compassionate, and collaborative therapeutic relationship as the bedrock for working together. I am curious about what makes you unique and keen to help you to be the expert on your life and experiences.

Testimonials
"Firstly, thank you. You have been my outlet to express exactly how I’m feeling in ways that am sometimes not capable of doing with my loved ones due to fear of upsetting or hurting them. You have made me aware of the often conflicting thoughts that my mind contends with. The part of brain that tells me that I should be feeling or doing better versus the part that offers compassion.You have also helped me identify feelings such as resentment, frustration and grief. These emotions were largely foreign to me and you enable me to explore and try to understand them. A big part of me feeling like I’m trying to do my best has been attending sessions with you" Female client age 32, July 2024
I Just wanted to say a huge thankyou for everything. It seems so long ago since I started my chemo just over a year ago. Little did I know how far I would come in such a short period of time. Talking to you has played a huge part in my journey and even though we have spoken less frequently recently the things you have helped me with have stayed with me and will long continue to help me when things get hard". Male client age 61 Dec 2024
I would like to say thank you for the work that we have undertaken together over these past few months. Working with you has been a truly transformational for me, both personally, and in my own journey to becoming a CAT practitioner. Your compassionate and non-judgmental approach created a safe space where I felt honestly seen and heard, helping me to identify my own patterns and new ways of coping. Change started within our work together, and several weeks on, I am pleased to note how I continue to hold in mind my map, and the meaningful exits that we created. Understanding myself through our work together has created a new understanding of myself within my own role as a therapist, further supporting me in helping my own therapy clients. I am so very grateful for your support and for our time working together.
