Kelly Greenwood
Practical support for recovery and emotional rebuilding
About Kelly
Kelly Greenwood works with people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, grief and low self-esteem. She approaches each person as an individual and aims to make the first steps feel manageable. Kelly writes in a plain, direct way and focuses on practical next steps rather than jargon.
Kelly has three years of experience as a practising counsellor and holds BACP membership. She has a strong interest in addiction recovery and the long-term effects of trauma.
Background and approach
Her background includes study in psychology, psychotherapy and counselling and further postgraduate work in positive psychology and counselling. In sessions she draws on evidence-based techniques and a strength-focused, positive psychology outlook. That means she helps people identify what is already working for them and build from there.
She also integrates approaches that support recovery from substance misuse and the effects of past abuse. Kelly often helps people who feel abandoned, isolated or empty, and those dealing with guilt, shame or problems with communication. She also supports people working through forgiveness, finding life purpose and learning self-love.
The focus is on steady progress and rebuilding confidence. Her work includes practical tools, reflective conversation and goal-setting tailored to each person's needs. Sessions aim to balance emotional understanding with concrete steps people can try between meetings.
Kelly accepts clients in English and sees people within the United Kingdom and internationally.

How therapy approaches translate to online care
Kelly integrates evidence-based therapeutic techniques and a strength-based positive psychology approach. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then commit to actions that match their values; it is often used for anxiety, addiction and trauma-related difficulties. The 12-Step Recovery Model offers a structured framework for people working on substance misuse, focusing on community, accountability and practical steps to support ongoing recovery.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Kelly will work with each person to identify which techniques feel most helpful given their goals, life circumstances and preferences. Together they adapt methods over time so sessions remain relevant and practical.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, which makes it easier to fit therapy around work, family or travel. Video is useful for a fuller conversational experience, phone calls can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins and messaging can support ongoing reflection between meetings. These options give flexibility while keeping the focus on steady recovery and building everyday coping skills.
