Kelly Royer, BACP

Kelly Royer is a counsellor with six years of professional experience working in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP accreditation and supports people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression and the effects of trauma and abuse. Kelly aims to make the first step feel manageable and acknowledges the courage it takes to begin therapy.

She creates a calm, non-judgemental space where clients can talk about difficult feelings. Sessions focus on helping people understand what’s getting in the way of their day-to-day life. Kelly uses practical conversation and reflective listening to make sense of emotional patterns and gentle steps towards change.

Her work covers a wide range of concerns including relationship difficulties, family matters, parenting strain, grief and career stress. She also pays attention to attachment and abandonment issues, codependency, loneliness and multicultural concerns. These areas often overlap, and Kelly helps people untangle them at a pace they can manage.

Kelly aims to help clients build self-compassion and stronger coping skills so they can face life changes with more confidence. She encourages small, achievable actions between sessions to reinforce progress. Wherever someone starts, she works alongside them to set clear, realistic goals.

Clients can expect straightforward, down-to-earth support rather than clinical jargon. Kelly invites people to share what matters to them and to shape the pace and focus of therapy together.

How evidence-based techniques translate to online therapy

Kelly uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that help people understand feelings and build new coping habits. One common approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and trying different, more balanced ways of responding to stress and worry. This helps with anxiety, low mood and everyday stress by teaching practical thought-checking skills.

Another helpful strand of work addresses relational and attachment patterns. Through discussion and reflection, clients can notice how past experiences shape current relationships and try different responses that feel safer and more connected. This approach is useful for issues like abandonment, loneliness and communication problems.

Finding the right style of therapy is a collaborative process. Kelly will talk with each person about their needs, goals and what feels comfortable. Together they shape a plan and try approaches that best fit the client’s situation, adapting as progress is made.

If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the specific session formats offered before booking. Many people find online therapy useful for fitting counselling into a busy day, reducing travel time and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. Other practical benefits include easier scheduling around work or caring responsibilities and being able to continue work with a therapist from different locations.
