Kirsty Wright Dip. Psychotherapy · MBACP · MNCPS

My route into psychotherapy was not a straight line. I first trained as a lawyer, gaining a law degree and a diploma in legal practice, and spent several years as a tax adviser inside an investment bank.

While raising my family, I spent many years studying and practising Buddhist meditation. That period gave me a way of sitting with experience — my own and other people's — that has shaped everything since. I trained as a Conscious Parenting Coach with Dr Shefali Tsabary, and then began the longer path into psychotherapy.

I qualified after a five-year Diploma in Integrative Transpersonal Psychotherapy at the Centre for Counselling and Psychotherapy Education. I am registered with the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP) and the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS), and I abide by both codes of conduct.

I work with adults and young adults from a wide range of backgrounds — professionals, parents, carers, and those navigating significant life transitions. Some clients come with a clear crisis they want support with; others arrive with a more general sense of pressure or disconnection despite appearing to cope well externally.
