About Kelly
Kelly Sartorius is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief and low self-esteem. She works with practical goals and steady support to help people cope with life changes. Kelly aims to make the first steps into therapy feel manageable and straightforward.
Kelly trained as an integrative counsellor and holds BACP and NCPS credentials. She combines several approaches so sessions can match what each person needs. That might mean looking at patterns from the past, trying small behavioural experiments, or focusing on present-day coping skills.
Background and approach
Sessions are conversational and goal-focused. Kelly listens first, then helps set clear, short-term actions alongside longer-term themes. These actions could include thought-reframing, mindful practices, or steps to improve communication and boundaries.
She has three years of practice with people who struggle with issues such as abandonment, attachment concerns, caregiver stress, workplace pressure and midlife change. Other areas she works on include grief, post-traumatic stress, forgiveness, guilt, isolation and finding life purpose. Kelly offers a range of session lengths and styles to suit different needs.
Her style blends warmth with practical tools so people can try things between sessions. That approach helps translate conversations into everyday changes.

Online support
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions connect. It uses concrete exercises and small behaviour changes to reduce anxiety and improve coping with stress.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity. It can help with rumination, grief and managing overwhelming feelings.
Choosing the right mix of approaches is part of therapy. The counsellor will work collaboratively to decide what fits your goals and preferences. That may mean trying one method first and adding others as you go.
Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when a longer session is needed, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for quicker check-ins, and text-based messaging can support those who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving and daily life.
