About Olivia

Olivia Kellett is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who supports people with relationship and family difficulties. She helps with issues such as trauma and abuse, intimacy problems, and low self-esteem. Olivia also works with concerns linked to abandonment, attachment, codependency and separation. She speaks English, Russian and Ukrainian.

Olivia uses a straightforward, human approach in sessions. She believes people already have strengths to build on and offers practical guidance as changes are made. She brings lightness when it helps and keeps the work focused on small, achievable steps.

Her way of working draws on Attachment-Based ideas to look at how past connections shape present relationships. She also uses Client-Centred methods that place the person at the heart of each session. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy tools are used when thinking patterns and behaviours need to be adjusted in everyday life.

With five years of experience and registration with the BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - Olivia aims to create an open space for talking through difficult topics. She explains things clearly and checks in about what feels useful as therapy progresses.

People typically come to her for help with family problems, infidelity, blended family stress, and feelings of emptiness or isolation. Olivia encourages practical steps, reflective conversation and small experiments between sessions to help change feel possible.

How attachment and CBT translate to online therapy

Olivia draws on Attachment-Based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. This helps when intimacy and trust are difficult now, and it can guide conversations about closeness and boundaries. She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy techniques to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours that keep problems going.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The counsellor will discuss goals, try out methods, and adjust what they do together based on what works best for each person. Clients are encouraged to give feedback so the plan stays relevant and practical.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking as the therapist's biography does not list specific options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work, childcare and travel. It also allows shorter check-ins when that suits a busy day, and removes the need to commute to appointments. Many people find this flexibility helps them keep therapy consistent while managing everyday responsibilities.
