Hello, I'm Kelly, an experienced Integrative Counsellor. I appreciate seeking support can be a daunting process, I hope my profile will offer a clear overview of how I can help. I blend Person-Centred and Psychodynamic therapy to create a safe, empathetic space for you to freely explore your thoughts and emotions. This process can enhance your self-awareness, self-acceptance, and understanding of your own needs and values. We can also explore unconscious patterns and past experiences to uncover potential underlying causes of current issues. I've supported a diverse range of individuals through short-term and long-term intervention.

Reaching out for help can be tough but it’s an important first step to feeling better. You don't have to cope alone, I'm a fully qualified counsellor offering a place to explore, understand and share your difficulties. I work with adult clients who are struggling with various mental and emotional challenges. This includes anxiety, low self-esteem, work stress, relationship and confidence issues. Many clients may not be aware of why they are struggling but often it can be attributed to a trauma which may have taken place either recently or in the past. I specialise in supporting clients understand and move through their symptoms.

If you struggle to fall asleep, can't stay asleep, wake up too early or wake up feeling unrefreshed, then I can help you. I studied insomnia at the University of Oxford and started helping people with their sleeping problems at Trouble Sleeping in 2006 with CBT-I. I take a thorough medical and sleep history to discover why you aren't sleeping well, and then I suggest specific tailored cognitive and behavioural changes to help you to overcome your sleep issues. I am also the author of the self-help sleep book, Navigating Sleeplessness.

People come to counselling for many different reasons. You may have something specific that you are looking to change or gain help with. It may be that you're feeling stuck, experiencing feelings of depression, anxiety, uncertainty and/or feeling overwhelmed. You may have or are still experiencing a traumatic time in your life. Maybe you are looking for an opportunity to get to know yourself better. Counselling allows you to do all of these things, it is a time and space for you. It is an invitation to escape distractions, pressures and your external demands and explore who you are.

Are you feeling depressed, anxious or stressed? Do you have low self esteem? Do you have problems with your relationships? Is your head full of negative and unhelpful thoughts? Do you feel you need help in making adjustments with your life? These are things I can help you with.. Taking the first step in reaching out for help is often very daunting, but I will be there to support you. Counselling can lead to exploring other options and choices in your life, whilst uncovering and rediscovering your true and unique qualities, and who you really are.
