About Kayleigh Lane, Counsellor in Bristol
Welcome, I’m Kayleigh, a BACP-registered counsellor and therapist based in Bristol. I offer a supportive space where both professional experience and lived understanding inform the way I work with clients.
A Rewarding & Varied Career
For over a decade, I worked in education across further education and specialist settings, supporting people with a range of additional and emotional needs.
I valued the relationships I built during this time and the opportunity to work closely with individuals navigating a wide range of challenges. A large part of my role involved listening, adapting support to individual needs, and helping people feel understood and respected in environments that could sometimes feel overwhelming.
Experience
My experience as a therapist has included working with adults and young people across charitable and educational settings, both throughout my training and since qualifying. This has involved supporting people from a wide range of backgrounds through diverse experiences and challenges.
Alongside my private practice, I provide counselling for young people through The Talking Zone, my school-based counselling service, as well as privately. My background in teaching and counselling has provided specialist experience working in SEND and Alternative Provision settings, including supporting young people with autism, ADHD and other learning and social-emotional needs.
This combination of therapeutic and educational experience shapes the way I work with both adults and young people. It also informs my work with neurodivergent clients, particularly those who may have found it difficult to access therapy that feels understanding, accessible and appropriate to their individual needs.
