Olivia Kellett, BACP

Olivia Kellett helps people facing relationship strain, family problems, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related worries and low self-esteem. She brings a calm, straightforward manner to sessions and aims to make difficult conversations feel manageable. Olivia works in English, Russian and Ukrainian for people in the United Kingdom and internationally.

She believes people bring strengths that can help them change. Sessions are a mix of listening and practical work. Olivia keeps things grounded and sometimes lightens the mood when appropriate. She focuses on clear steps people can try between sessions.

Olivia uses approaches that look at how early bonds shape current relationships and how thoughts and feelings influence behaviour. She also draws on emotionally focused and mindfulness-based ways of working. These methods are chosen to match the issues someone brings, such as trust after betrayal or feeling stuck after a separation.

Her practice covers a range of family-related concerns, including blended family tensions, immigration-related stress, and the fallout from infidelity or divorce. Olivia also supports people struggling with abandonment, codependency, control issues and isolation. She addresses feelings like guilt, shame and emptiness in straightforward terms.

Olivia holds BACP registration, which is the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She has five years of professional experience supporting adults. People can expect a collaborative, respectful approach with practical tools and space to talk through painful memories and current conflicts.

Therapeutic approaches online and what they offer

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps when trust, closeness or fear of abandonment get in the way of feeling secure in relationships. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviours. It is useful for tackling anxiety, unhelpful beliefs about self-worth and repetitive negative patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Olivia will work collaboratively to decide which methods suit a person's goals and preferences. That means trying ideas, checking what helps, and adapting the plan as things change rather than sticking to one fixed method.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging so people can choose what fits their day. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a short break. Chat or messaging can suit quick check-ins, ongoing reflection or times when writing feels more comfortable. These options give flexibility for different schedules, energy levels and communication styles.
