About me
Hi, I’m Kirsty, the founder of Loch and Lumen Therapy. I’m passionate about helping people navigate life’s challenges through evidence-based CBT techniques in a warm, supportive environment.
My goal is to empower you with practical tools to manage stress, anxiety, and everyday struggles, so you can feel more confident, peaceful and in control.
When I’m not working with clients, I love to travel, go to gigs, and spend time outdoors, finding inspiration in nature - because balance and clarity matter in every part of life.
My approach
While I use the Cognitive Behavioural framework, I also integrate tools from different modalities, including compassion focussed techniques, solution focussed therapy and metacognitive therapy. This way, I can provide a tailored and unique approach to your therapeutic journey.
Using a combination of these techniques, I work with you to explore the issues that are impacting your daily life and help unearth the roots of these issues. Ultimately, I help you reach specific goals along your journey, through growth and change.
I provide a safe space, where you feel heard, valued and understood. Here, we work together to discover the solutions you need and to give you the tools to become your own therapist.
We can all live more fulfilled, purposeful and empowered lives.
I'm here to help you discover yours.
