About Kelly

Kelly Sartorius is a BACP and NCPS registered counsellor working in the United Kingdom with three years' clinical experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief, low self-esteem and life changes. Kelly also works with issues such as guilt and shame, attachment and abandonment, workplace stress and post-traumatic stress.

She uses an integrative style that draws on several well-known approaches. Sessions are practical and conversational. Kelly aims to listen without judgement and to help people name what is most difficult for them.

Her training includes person-centred work, cognitive behavioural therapy or CBT, psychodynamic ideas and solution-focused techniques. Kelly blends these approaches so sessions can focus on understanding patterns, managing upsetting thoughts, or trying small changes to reduce distress.

Clients can expect short-term planning or longer work depending on their needs. Kelly describes practical tools alongside reflective discussion, so people develop clearer coping options and next steps.

She offers therapy for a broad range of concerns including caregiver stress, communication problems, divorce and separation, forgiveness, isolation, life purpose, men's and women's issues, midlife challenges and building self-love. Her background aims to support people who are carrying guilt or shame from relationships, faith, past actions or ongoing pressures.

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work

Kelly commonly draws on client-centred therapy and cognitive behavioural therapy. Client-centred work focuses on listening and helping people speak about what matters most. It is useful when someone needs time to sort feelings about guilt, shame or loss. CBT looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions interact and offers practical steps to test unhelpful thinking patterns.

She also uses mindfulness-informed techniques to help people notice their reactions and build simple coping skills. Mindfulness can be useful when anxiety or rumination keeps someone stuck in self-blame.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and try methods that suit the person's situation. This is a collaborative process and may shift over time as needs change.

Confirm the session formats directly before booking because the original biography does not list specific formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work or family commitments and can allow shorter check-ins when time is limited. Registered or accredited professionals commonly offer options that help sessions fit everyday life without needing extra travel.
