About Kristi

BACP registered child and adolescent psychotherapist with four years' experience, working in UK primary and secondary school settings and with Primary Care Network clients. Kristi Domeney helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting pressures and life changes. She also focuses on adoption and foster care, attachment issues and support for neurodiverse young people.

Kristi works with children and young people aged 5 to 25, and with parents. She uses art and play alongside talking therapies to make sessions accessible for younger clients. Sessions can be short term or longer, depending on the needs identified together.

Her approach combines attachment-based ideas, client-centred listening and psychodynamic thinking. That means she pays attention to relationships and early patterns, follows the person’s lead in the room, and notices themes that repeat over time. She offers practical coping strategies for moments of dysregulation and anxiety.

Kristi has additional training to support neurodiverse people and uses multiple practical tools, including the PANDA approach. She works with children in foster care and young people facing self-harm or post-traumatic stress, adapting methods to age and development.

To begin, visitors are asked to use the site’s matching questionnaire and book a first session. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. International clients are not currently accepted.

How her approaches shape remote work

Kristi draws on attachment-based ideas, client-centred practice and psychodynamic thinking to structure her work. Attachment-based work looks at important relationships and how they affect feelings and behaviour; it can help with attachment issues and difficulties after adoption or foster care. Client-centred practice focuses on following the person’s lead and making room for their concerns, which can be useful for stress, anxiety and parenting questions. Psychodynamic thinking pays attention to repeating patterns and hidden themes, helping people understand longstanding difficulties such as avoidant traits or dependent patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kristi will discuss methods with the client and parent or carer, and agree what to try based on needs, goals and preferences. That discussion is collaborative and may lead to combining practical coping skills with play or reflective conversation.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, as this profile does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into school days, work breaks or family schedules. It can also allow shorter check-ins or sessions that use less bandwidth when video is difficult. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists commonly adapt their tools for remote sessions so people can continue therapeutic work without changing life routines.
