About Keely

Keely Strange is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with nine years' experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, depression and anger. She works with a wide range of issues including trauma, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, and difficulties linked to ADHD and bipolar. Keely accepts international clients and offers remote sessions as part of her practice.

Her work grew from roles in the disability sector at several universities where she provided one-to-one support. There she helped students balance study and daily life, and addressed barriers such as panic, PTSD and autism. Much of that support has been delivered remotely by telephone, Skype or Zoom, and she has also provided face-to-face counselling when needed.

Keely uses client-centred, mindfulness and solution-focused approaches. In plain terms she listens, helps people notice unhelpful patterns, and works with them to set practical goals. She draws on years of telephone counselling experience which sharpened her listening skills when visual cues were not available.

She also has experience working with addiction services and handling administrative responsibilities linked to casework. Keely offers short chats for welfare checks as well as longer therapeutic sessions, and she aims to help people understand and manage their emotions and behaviour more effectively.

Keely follows the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy ethical framework and undertakes regular supervision. Her practice uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and session cost varies with location. To start, users complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and acceptance. The therapist follows the client's lead, reflects what is said and helps build understanding of feelings. This approach supports people dealing with anger, low self-esteem and relationship strain.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple ways to notice thoughts and bodily reactions without getting swept up by them. These skills can reduce reactivity and help with stress, anxiety and anger that comes from overwhelm.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, practical steps and clear goals. It is useful when someone wants brief, action-oriented work to change specific behaviours or responses at home or at work.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss what matters to the client and match methods to their goals and preferences. This is collaborative rather than fixed, and it can change as progress is made.

Keely's biography records remote work via telephone, Skype and Zoom as well as some face-to-face sessions. Please confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins, avoid travel time and offer flexibility around work or study commitments. Many people find these practical benefits help them keep therapy going alongside daily life.
