Kelly Owen

Kelly Owen is a counsellor with six years of experience supporting people through anxiety, depression and stress. She helps with trauma and abuse, self‑esteem and confidence, and issues such as grief, relationship strain and sleep problems. Kelly works from the view that each person knows their own story and already has strengths to draw on. She aims to offer steady support while people take the first steps toward change.

Kelly uses a person-centred approach to therapy. Sessions focus on listening carefully and following what matters most to the individual. Conversations are practical and grounded, with time spent naming feelings, noticing patterns and trying small changes that can fit into everyday life.

Her work also covers concerns such as panic, ADHD, compassion fatigue and career-related strain. Kelly pays attention to attachment and abandonment themes when they show up, and she helps people cope with loneliness, guilt and shame. Intellectual disability is listed among her focus areas and she includes this in her practice considerations.

Kelly is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and practices from the United Kingdom. Sessions are conducted in English. She accepts international clients and will work with people from different countries within that context.

To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to her timetable. Kelly aims to be approachable and calm, helping people to find manageable steps toward feeling better.

How client-centred work translates to online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening closely and following the priorities of the person in front of the counsellor. It involves open conversation, reflection and helping individuals find their own solutions. This approach can help with anxiety, low mood, trauma responses and problems with confidence.

Kelly’s way of working is collaborative. She will help people decide which approach feels right based on their needs and goals. That choice is reviewed together as therapy unfolds rather than set in stone at the start.

Session formats are not specified in the profile, so it is important to confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow quicker check‑ins when life feels difficult. It can also make arranging sessions across time zones simpler for international clients. Discussing practicalities with the counsellor helps ensure the arrangements suit day-to-day routines and communication preferences.
