Natasha Kelly

Natasha Kelly is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years of counselling experience. She lists stress, anxiety, relationship and life purpose among the concerns she works with, and she also supports people facing grief, career uncertainty and coping with life changes.

Natasha previously trained and worked as a primary school teacher before retraining as a counsellor. She has written about mental health for a number of websites, and her background includes roles in the NHS, charity organisations and private practice. That mix gives her experience with different kinds of practical pressures and referral routes.

In sessions she uses straightforward, conversational therapy rather than jargon. She draws on client-centred methods to focus on what matters to the individual. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used when people want tools to manage anxiety, low mood or unhelpful thinking patterns.

Natasha also works with mindfulness approaches and hypnotherapy to help with sleep problems, stress and addictive behaviours. For relationship concerns she lists Imago Relationship Therapy as one of the ways she supports communication and intimacy-related issues.

People who come to her often bring questions about direction at work and life purpose, problems with self-esteem, or the strain of caregiving and blended family dynamics. Her practical aim is to help people talk through what feels stuck and to find manageable first steps.

How Natasha integrates therapy approaches in online sessions

Natasha uses client-centred therapy to prioritise the person’s concerns and pace. This approach means conversations are led by what the client brings, with the counsellor offering reflection and support to clarify what matters most. It often helps when someone is unsure what to focus on next.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which gives clear techniques to manage anxiety, low mood and thinking patterns that get in the way. CBT tends to involve identifying thoughts and testing small behavioural experiments to see what helps. Natasha may combine that with mindfulness practices to support sleep, stress and concentration by building simple attention exercises into daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Natasha will discuss options and try methods that suit the client’s goals, needs and preferences. She treats this as a collaborative decision and will review what is or isn’t helping as therapy progresses.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings around work, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also allow use of exercises, breathing practices and CBT worksheets during the session to support practical change.
