Kelly Sartorius

Kelly Sartorius is a BACP and NCPS registered counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years' experience. She works with people who are feeling stuck or unsure about what comes next, helping with stress, anxiety, relationship problems, grief, self-esteem and coping with life changes. Kelly also supports people concerned about life purpose and workplace issues.

Her style draws on a mix of approaches so sessions focus on what feels most useful right now. She uses Client-Centred ways of listening alongside practical tools from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. Mindfulness and Solution-Focused methods appear in short-term work when the aim is clear, while Psychodynamic ideas can help look at patterns that repeat.

Kelly trained with an FdSc in integrative counselling and lists BACP and NCPS among her credentials. That background informs a practice that blends talking with problem-solving and reflective work. She keeps sessions straightforward and focused on small, practical steps as well as understanding the causes of distress.

People come to her when they are managing caregiving stress, separation and divorce, attachment or abandonment worries, or when past trauma affects daily life. She also supports clients dealing with guilt, shame, loneliness, midlife questions, men's and women's issues, and communication problems at work.

If someone wants to start, Kelly asks them to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. The practice uses a subscription model where the fee varies by location and can be cancelled at any time.

Therapy approaches and working online

Kelly uses Client-Centred Therapy to focus on what the client brings to each session, listening and reflecting so people can follow their own concerns. This approach helps when someone needs space to talk through doubts about work, relationships or life direction.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to spot unhelpful thought patterns and try small experiments. CBT is useful for anxiety, stress and practical problems that benefit from step-by-step techniques.

Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the work. Kelly will discuss goals and preferences and adapt methods together, choosing reflective or practical tools as suits the person's aims.

The therapist's biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins between commitments and reduce travel time. They also let people choose quieter surroundings or avoid being on camera when that helps them focus. Registered or accredited professionals can offer these arrangements, and Kelly will clarify the practical setup when arranging the first session.
