About Kristyana Jimdar
Kristyana Jimdar is a counsellor who brings international experience and a practical, creative approach to therapy. Originally from Trinidad, she relocated to the United Kingdom in 2020 after completing a Masters in Counselling Children and Young People from the University of Northampton in 2017. Her training and life experience across different countries inform a culturally aware perspective on emotional wellbeing.
In 2018 she spent a year in upstate New York working at Green Chimneys, a farm-based centre that specialises in animal assisted therapy. That hands-on work alongside animals shaped her practice, reinforcing how interactions with pets and animals can offer comfort and support during therapeutic work.
Kristyana works from an integrative framework that draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), creative therapy, and systemic ideas to match methods to each person’s needs. She offers flexible, expressive options such as worksheets, journaling prompts, and artistic methods - clients can share photos or short videos that capture feelings when words are not enough.
She holds the credential BACP, which indicates affiliation with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and she accepts clients in the United Kingdom and internationally. Her practice emphasises collaboration, practical tools, and creativity to support people facing stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, trauma, grief, eating and sleeping difficulties, and other life changes.

Client-Centered Care and Online Therapy Options
Kristyana uses several practical approaches that translate well to online work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, nonjudgmental space where the therapist follows the client’s lead to explore feelings and goals - this approach suits people seeking empathetic listening and personal growth. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a structured method that helps identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours; it is useful for problems such as anxiety, low mood, and sleep difficulties because it offers clear strategies and homework tasks. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on strengths and achievable steps, helping clients build on what already works and move toward specific, short-term goals.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Kristyana works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting techniques as therapy progresses so the plan remains practical and client-led.
Online therapy with Kristyana can take place by video call, phone session, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access consistent support from anywhere in the United Kingdom or internationally, while allowing clients to choose the format that best suits their daily life and communication style.
