About Kristi

Kristi Domeney is a BACP counsellor with four years' experience working in UK school settings and with primary care network clients. She supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting concerns and coping with life changes. The profile notes a focus on blended family issues among other family-related matters.

She has experience supporting children and young people aged 5 to 25 and their parents in schools and community settings. That background informs how she talks about attachment, foster care and developmental differences when adults bring those concerns into sessions.

Her approach draws on attachment-based work, client-centred practice and psychodynamic ideas. Sessions may include talking, reflective listening and creative activities such as art and play when relevant. She also uses practical tools to help with emotional regulation and coping during anxious moments.

Kristi works with people who are dealing with parenting strain, relationship tensions inside blended households, and the emotional fallout from loss or past trauma. She can help clients develop ways to manage stress and build steadier routines at home.

She offers both short and longer therapy agreements depending on need. The profile mentions additional training for neurodiverse clients and approaches used with children in foster care, which inform how she plans interventions for adults concerned about those issues.

How her approaches guide online work

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current connections. It looks at patterns of closeness and distance and helps people understand loyalty conflicts, caregiving stress and bonds inside blended households.

Client-Centred Therapy places the person's own perspective at the centre. The therapist listens without judgement, reflects what is said and follows the client's pace to help them clarify goals and next steps for parenting or relationship decisions.

Psychodynamic Therapy pays attention to repeated emotional patterns and past experiences that influence present behaviour. It can be useful for people who want to understand why certain family dynamics keep repeating and how to change them.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss preferences, practical needs and short or long-term goals, and then adapt methods so sessions fit what the client wants to achieve.

Confirm which online session formats are currently offered before booking, as the profile does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when time is limited and remove the need to travel. Registered or accredited professionals often use this flexibility to keep progress steady while clients manage family routines.
