About Olivia
Olivia Kellett is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with five years of experience. She works with adults who are struggling with relationship and family problems, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues and low self-esteem. She also supports people facing attachment and abandonment concerns, codependency and the fallout from infidelity or separation.
Her style is straightforward and conversational. She believes people have strengths that help them change, and she mixes clear guidance with moments of levity. Sessions focus on what is happening in relationships and how patterns such as people-pleasing or difficulty saying no affect daily life.
Olivia draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current responses. She uses client-centred techniques to keep discussions focused on the client’s perspective and priorities. Cognitive methods are used to identify unhelpful thinking and practise new ways of responding.
When trauma or abuse are part of the picture, she approaches those topics carefully and at the client’s pace. She also uses emotionally focused work to help clients notice and name core feelings that turn up in close relationships. Mindfulness tools are offered to manage intense emotions and increase present-moment awareness.
Sessions are conducted in English, Russian and Ukrainian. Olivia works with people affected by blended family dynamics, immigration stress, guilt and shame, isolation and control or commitment issues. Before booking, readers should confirm current session options and formats.
How sessions work
How her online sessions use evidence-based approaches
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current reactions and patterns. It helps people notice how closeness, trust and fear of abandonment show up in adult relationships and what small changes might feel different day to day.Client-centred work keeps the focus on the client’s own priorities and experience. The counsellor listens, reflects and helps clients clarify what matters to them so they can choose which issues to tackle first.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. It uses practical exercises and experiments to test new responses to triggers such as people-pleasing or guilt, which can change how daily interactions feel.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss options together and adjust methods to fit the client’s goals and preferences. This collaborative planning helps people try different techniques and see what helps most.
Confirm the current online session options before booking as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people choose quieter surroundings or avoid being on camera for parts of a session, depending on what works best for them.
