About Kelly

Kelly Greenwood is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief and self-esteem. Kelly works with people who are dealing with substance use, past traumatic events and the emotional fallout that follows.

Kelly describes her work as evidence-based and integrative. She uses elements from well-established methods alongside positive psychology to help people build strengths and practical coping skills. Sessions tend to focus on managing cravings and triggers, processing traumatic memories, and rebuilding a sense of self after loss or abuse.

Her background includes a first-class undergraduate degree in Psychology, Psychotherapy and Counselling from the University of Greater Manchester and a master’s in Positive Psychology and Counselling. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and a practitioner member of Addiction Professionals. She also volunteers with an addiction organisation, which informs her practical knowledge of recovery pathways.

Kelly has experience working specifically with the 12-Step Recovery Model and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. She combines these with strength-focused ideas from positive psychology to address issues such as abandonment, guilt and shame, isolation, life purpose and self-love.

People can expect straightforward conversations about what’s causing distress, practical strategies to reduce day-to-day symptoms, and collaborative planning for longer-term goals. Before booking, confirm the current session options offered.

Therapeutic approaches and working online

Kelly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting driven by them; this approach supports living according to personal values even when emotions are hard. She also draws on the 12-Step Recovery Model to guide people through structured recovery work and practical steps used commonly in addiction support.

Finding the right mix of approaches is collaborative. The therapist will talk with the client about needs, goals and preferences, and adapt methods over time rather than using a single fixed programme. Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm the current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example sessions can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a work break, or remove the need to be on camera when bandwidth is limited. Registered or accredited professionals can use online appointments to keep continuity of care when travel or scheduling would otherwise interrupt progress.
