About Kelly
Kelly Day is a counsellor who focuses on helping people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief, addiction and life changes. She names parenting among her areas of interest, and she supports people struggling with self-worth, relationships and trauma. Kelly aims to create a steady, compassionate presence so people can begin to understand what’s happening inside them.
Kelly uses an integrative counselling foundation and draws on creativity and spiritual perspectives when helpful.
Background and approach
Sessions are shaped by each person’s needs and pace, with space to notice thoughts, feelings and bodily sensations. The work often looks at patterns that keep repeating and the emotions beneath them. Her style is gentle and exploratory.
Kelly guides conversations so people can reconnect with their inner wisdom and make practical sense of painful experiences. She emphasises curiosity rather than blame when looking at habits or self-sabotaging behaviours. Kelly has four years of professional experience and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - BACP.
That background informs how she organises sessions and the professional standards she follows. Sessions may include talking, creative exercises and reflective practices that draw out feelings and meaning. People can expect a collaborative approach that balances emotional exploration with steps to manage day-to-day difficulties.
Her work often touches on complex areas such as trauma, self-harm, sexual assault and bereavement, alongside more everyday challenges like workplace stress, body image and life transitions. Kelly welcomes conversations about how therapy might fit into someone’s life and goals.

Therapeutic approaches and online flexibility
Kelly works from an integrative counselling base, combining different ways of working to suit each person. Integrative counselling brings together talking therapy with creative and reflective practices, which can help with trauma, depression and long-standing patterns of behaviour. She also uses spiritual perspectives as a thread through sessions to help people connect with meaning and inner resources during recovery and life transitions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client will decide together which methods feel most useful, based on the person’s needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative process helps tailor sessions so they remain relevant and manageable over time.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, which makes it easier to fit therapy around work, parenting and travel. Video calls let people see non-verbal cues, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be simpler to schedule, live chat is useful for shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options give flexibility while keeping the focus on consistent, practical progress.
