More about Kelsey

  • 3 years' experience
  • Female
  • BACP

Hi, I’m Kelsey, a BACP registered integrative counsellor—and more importantly, I’m a human being, just like you. I understand that life can be messy, overwhelming, and sometimes downright hard. That’s why I believe in the power of truly listening, without judgment, and offering support as we navigate the ups and downs together.

I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to therapy. Each of us is unique, as are our struggles. That’s why I tailor my work to meet the specific needs of each individual, drawing on a blend of Gestalt, existential, third-wave CBT, person-centred, cognitive-behavioural, and relational psychodynamic therapies. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, loss, neurodivergence, or simply feeling stuck, I offer a space where you can be yourself—no pressure, no expectations, just honest, real support.

If you’re looking for a counsellor who understands that life is complex and healing isn’t linear, I’d love to hear from you.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
