About Kelly

Kelly Greenwood is a counsellor who aims to help people facing stress, anxiety, addiction and trauma. She welcomes straightforward conversations and practical steps. Her style is warm and focused on what each person needs right now.

Kelly draws on several years working in addiction services and related areas. That background gives her insight into how substance misuse, grief and shame can affect a person’s day-to-day life. She uses plain language and concrete strategies so sessions feel manageable, not overwhelming.

Background and approach

Her work combines evidence-based therapeutic techniques with a strengths-focused outlook inspired by positive psychology. That means she looks for what still works in a person’s life and builds from there, while addressing painful experiences and post-traumatic stress where they arise. Kelly is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.

She has a first-class undergraduate degree in Psychology, Psychotherapy and Counselling, and a master’s in Positive Psychology and Counselling. She also has experience volunteering and contributing to research in the addiction sector. This keeps her practice informed by current thinking and real-world recovery work.

Sessions can cover practical coping skills, rebuilding routine, managing cravings, making sense of past harm, and growing self-compassion. Kelly aims to work collaboratively so people leave feeling clearer and more able to take the next step.

Focus areas and approaches

Everything Kelly lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

How therapeutic approaches work online

Kelly commonly uses evidence-based methods that focus on values, behaviour and practical change. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck and then take small steps towards a chosen life. It is useful for anxiety, addiction challenges and ongoing distress.

She also draws on 12-Step principles when working with addiction recovery, helping people understand patterns, build routine and connect to practical supports. This approach often focuses on relapse prevention, accountability and rebuilding daily structure.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk through options, try techniques in session, and adapt plans based on what feels most helpful. Goals, preferences and daily demands guide which methods are used and when to change course.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls let people use visual cues and mirror in-person conversations. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a lunch break or commute. Live chat and text messaging allow short check-ins, quick coping reminders and ongoing contact between sessions. Together these formats make it easier to keep therapy consistent while fitting around work, caring duties and travel.
