Debby Kirby, NCPS

Debby Kirby NCPS greets people with warmth and a straightforward approach. She helps with midlife questions alongside stress, anxiety, depression and grief. She also supports those facing trauma, intimacy concerns, self-esteem struggles, parenting strain, sleep and eating difficulties, and challenges linked to ADHD and bipolar experience.

Debby describes herself as a creative practitioner who brings art and poetry into sessions when useful. She has worked in mental health roles for four years and uses her experience to shape practical, person-centred conversations. Her NCPS credential appears as part of her professional details.

In sessions she aims to build a steady connection first. She talks through feelings, past hurts and present pressures while offering tools people can use between meetings. Practical steps, inner child exploration and creative exercises are options she may suggest, depending on what feels right for the person.

Debby’s background includes work with people affected by historic sexual abuse, domestic violence and complex grief. She also mentions experience with attachment issues, dissociation, and coping after major loss or disaster. That experience informs how she frames safety and pacing in therapy.

She works in English and accepts international clients. New clients begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling sessions according to availability. Fees vary with location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

Practical therapeutic approaches for online work

Debby mentions creative methods and inner child work alongside trauma-informed practice. Inner child work focuses on gentle conversations with earlier parts of the self to understand old wounds and change long-standing reactions; it often helps with shame, attachment difficulties and patterns in relationships. Creative techniques such as poetry, visualisation and art exercises give people different ways to express feelings when words feel limited and can be useful for grief, depression and emotional regulation.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Debby will talk with a person about what they want to achieve and try different methods to see what fits. This shared process allows adjustments over time so therapy stays relevant to changing needs and goals.

Online work can make fitting therapy into a busy life easier. Video sessions are noted as a way she has built rapport with clients, and they let people join from different locations without travel. If you want clarity about session types and scheduling, confirm the current options before booking so you can pick what best fits your routine.
