About Kayra
Kayra Dick is an NCPS-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with six years' experience. She works with adults and people aged 16 and over on concerns such as self-esteem, relationships, anxiety, addiction, trauma and attachment issues. The first sessions are straightforward and practical. Kayra aims to help clients notice what is happening now and try small changes.
She blends short-term coping strategies with deeper work on life history to inform future choices. That means some sessions focus on practical skills to manage stress or cravings, while others look at patterns that repeat in relationships or mood. Kayra draws on a range of approaches so sessions can shift between skills practice and reflective exploration.
Her background includes work in prisons, schools and roles within the NHS alongside private practice. That experience informs a down-to-earth style that emphasises clear steps and steady progress. Sessions are conversational but goal-oriented, with regular review of what is helping.
Kayra welcomes topics people often find hard to discuss, including gender or sexuality related concerns, body image, and problems with intimacy or commitment. She also works with issues like anger, career change, sleeping and eating difficulties, and ADHD-related challenges.
People who prefer a mix of practical tools and deeper reflection often find this approach useful. Kayra encourages small experiments between sessions and checks in on how new strategies are going. If someone wants straightforward ways to manage day-to-day difficulties alongside exploring personal patterns, her way of working may fit.
How her approaches work in online sessions
Kayra draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test different responses. CBT sessions often focus on practical exercises, short experiments and step-by-step skills to reduce anxiety, manage mood swings or change eating and sleep habits.She also uses Attachment-Based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. That work helps people understand repeated problems in intimacy, trust or commitment and guides changes in how they relate to others.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kayra will discuss goals, preferences and what feels useful, then try concrete methods and review progress together. That collaborative checking helps decide whether to emphasise skills-based CBT, attachment-focused reflection or client-centred listening.
Confirm the specific session formats before booking, as the profile does not list them. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life, for example by reducing travel time or allowing shorter check-ins at a convenient moment. Discuss practical needs and timing with Kayra when arranging the first session so sessions can slot into everyday routines.
