About Kevin
Kevin Wilde is a counsellor who combines talk therapy with hypnotherapy to help people move past anxiety, grief and life changes. He works in a straightforward way and aims to build a trusting relationship so people feel heard and understood. Kevin uses practical tools and gentle guidance to help clients find more balance and purpose in daily life.
He draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioural ideas and attachment-based thinking to address stress, sleeping problems and low mood.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on identifying what matters to the person, noticing unhelpful patterns, and testing small changes that can make life easier. Hypnotherapy is offered separately from the main counselling work and can be used as an extra tool for relaxation and behaviour change. Kevin has five years of experience working both in the NHS and in independent practice.
He describes the person as the expert in their story and aims to build on existing strengths rather than impose solutions. He says he will use personal disclosure when it helps to level power differences and explain ideas more clearly. Typical concerns he supports include relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, parenting strain, anger and low self-esteem.
He also works with issues such as ADHD, bipolar mood challenges, compassion fatigue and career stress. Sessions are offered in English and take place online by video, phone, live chat or messaging. Kevin encourages small, achievable steps and practical techniques that fit into everyday life.
He invites people to explore values, improve communication and reduce overwhelm so they can move towards a more fulfilling routine.

Online support
Online approaches: hypnotherapy, ACT and attachment-focused work
Kevin offers a few practical approaches that translate well to online sessions. Hypnotherapy is presented as an additional technique for relaxation and supporting behaviour change; it is offered separately from the counselling work and can help with things like sleep, anxiety and breaking unhelpful habits. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking small committed steps even when uncomfortable thoughts or feelings are present, which suits people wanting purpose-driven change. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current connections and communication, and it can help with intimacy issues, trust and family-related strains.Choosing the right approach is something to work out together. The therapist will listen to the client’s goals and preferences, then suggest which methods might fit best. That collaborative process can include trying a few different tools until one feels right for the person.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video is useful for deeper conversational work and non-verbal cues, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can suit quick check-ins or shorter reflections between meetings. These options help make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, family and everyday life.
