About Kellie

Kellie Giunta is a BACP-accredited counsellor with more than 12 years of practice. She offers a calm, non-judgemental presence where people can bring whatever they are carrying. Sessions move at the client’s pace, with the therapist listening closely and helping clients feel understood before any steps are taken.

She has a long history of working with anxiety, trauma and related struggles. Kellie combines gentle, trauma-informed boundaries with practical tools to help manage distress. That means both space for emotional exploration and techniques to reduce symptoms day to day.

Alongside private work, she co-founded and co-manages a charity therapy centre that focuses on affordable, accessible support. She also supervises other practitioners, supporting reflective and ethical practice. Her background includes work across multiple settings with people facing loss, complex trauma and long-term stress.

Kellie draws on Person-Centred ways of working to keep the client’s voice central. She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and develop coping strategies. Attachment-aware ideas inform how she thinks about relationship patterns and safety in the therapeutic relationship.

Clients come for help with stress, anxiety, grief, self-esteem, addictions and other challenges. She also works with concerns around parenting, fatherhood issues, LGBT matters, body image, career strain and compassion fatigue. Sessions aim to blend emotional support with practical steps towards feeling steadier.

How her approaches shape online work

Kellie blends Attachment-Aware ideas, Person-Centred practice and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in her work. Attachment-aware thinking looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps when connection or trust feels difficult. Person-Centred work focuses on listening, acceptance and putting the client’s priorities first so people can speak without being directed. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and build practical coping skills for symptoms like anxiety and low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and decide together which combination of methods feels most useful. That collaborative planning may change as therapy progresses.

Please confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by reducing travel time or allowing appointments around work breaks. It also supports shorter check-ins when needed and can be adapted if quieter surroundings or less video are preferable. Registered or accredited professionals can guide you on what will work best for your circumstances.
