About Kyran

BACP. 3 years' experience. Kyran Croft Ilich is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom who works with stress, anxiety, addictions, low self-esteem, depression and coping with life changes.

Kyran supports people dealing with grief, addiction recovery, moments of feeling lost, and transitions such as career or relationship change. He uses plain talk and steady pacing to help people identify what feels most pressing. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer thinking rather than jargon or pressure to change quickly.

His approach is person-centred and integrative, which means he listens and uses a mix of techniques to suit each person. Kyran treats clients as the expert on their own life and offers reflective conversation alongside exercises or strategies when useful. This may include looking at thought patterns, behaviour choices, and coping skills.

People who come to him often want to reduce overwhelming emotions, manage addictive urges, or rebuild confidence after setbacks. He also works with a wide range of issues such as attachment concerns, body image, chronic illness and caregiver stress. Sessions are conducted in English and Spanish.

To begin, a short questionnaire matches people to the service and then a first session is scheduled. Costs vary by location and use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. Kyran accepts international clients and aims to create straightforward, practical counselling that fits into everyday life.

Therapeutic techniques used in online counselling

The counsellor describes his work as person-centred and integrative. Person-centred counselling focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the client, helping them to clarify their own thoughts and values. Integrative work combines different evidence-based techniques to address mood, anxiety and addiction-related problems.

Two commonly used approaches that fit this style are cognitive techniques and behavioural strategies. Cognitive techniques look at unhelpful thought patterns and help people test and adjust those thoughts to reduce anxiety or low mood. Behavioural strategies focus on small, practical changes - for example activity scheduling or breaking tasks into manageable steps to improve mood and routine.

Finding the best approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss different methods with each client and agree which to try based on needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as therapy progresses.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work or family commitments, remove travel time, and allow appointments from different locations. It can also allow shorter check-ins or sessions that do not require video when that better suits someone's day.
