About Keely

Keely Strange is a counsellor who uses a warm, person-centred way of working. She creates a calm space where people can talk through worries about anxiety, depression, stress and relationship concerns. Keely also supports people facing trauma, addiction and changes in life like bereavement and career shifts.

She has spent nine years working across universities and in community settings. Much of that work has been one-to-one support for students and staff with a wide range of barriers, including ADHD, PTSD and long-term health conditions.

Background and approach

Keely has experience running telephone and video sessions as well as some face-to-face counselling in clinic and home visits. Her day-to-day roles have included welfare work and payroll responsibilities, which gave her practical experience in managing sensitive situations and maintaining professional boundaries. Keely has also worked in addiction services where she combined case management with solution-focused methods.

Keely is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - BACP. She takes regular supervision and follows an ethical framework in her work. Her background includes hundreds of counselling hours supporting people with anger, self-harm, OCD, grief and family problems.

In sessions she aims to listen carefully, reflect feelings back and help people find ways to manage emotions. The overall goal is to increase self-awareness and practical coping so daily life and study can feel more manageable.

Ways of working Keely names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Approaches suited to online counselling and practical help

Keely combines client-centred listening with mindfulness and solution-focused ideas to help people online. Client-Centred Therapy means the counsellor concentrates on listening, reflecting feelings and building trust so the person can make sense of their experience and feel heard. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices that can reduce stress and help with anxiety and focus. Solution-Focused Therapy looks at what is already working and builds small, practical steps to move towards clearer goals and better coping.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Keely will discuss what matters most to the person, try out techniques and check in to see what helps. Together they pick methods that match the person's needs, goals and preferences rather than relying on a single way of working.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues and maintain a close connection, while phone sessions require less bandwidth and suit shorter check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging can fit around study or work and allow ongoing reflection between sessions. These formats make it easier to access consistent support from registered or accredited professionals without needing to travel.
