About Keely

Keely Strange is a counsellor who uses a person-centred approach to help people manage stress, anxiety and life changes. She works with adults facing issues such as depression, addiction, relationship strain and grief. Keely brings nine years of counselling practice and everyday empathy to sessions so people feel heard and understood.

She has substantial experience supporting students and staff in UK universities, helping them balance study, work and wellbeing while navigating conditions like ADHD, autism, PTSD and long-term health challenges. Much of this work has been remote, including telephone and video conversations. Keely has also worked as a telephone counsellor and in clinic-based face-to-face counselling when needed.

Keely uses client-centred listening alongside mindfulness and solution-focused techniques. That means she listens without judgement, helps clients spot small changes that make a difference, and teaches simple grounding or awareness practices to reduce overwhelm. Her practical aim is to help people understand and manage their emotions more effectively.

She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and follows ethical guidance and regular supervision. Keely keeps boundaries through clear agreements with clients and adjusts her support to individual needs.

Sessions have been offered by telephone and via video platforms in her university work, and she has experience providing home visits and clinic sessions. Readers should confirm current session options when they arrange to start therapy.

How her approaches shape online counselling

Keely combines client-centred listening with mindfulness and solution-focused ideas to support people online. Client-Centred Therapy means she offers attention and empathy so clients can talk through feelings and make sense of their situation. Mindfulness Therapy introduces simple breathing and awareness practices to reduce overwhelm and sharpen concentration. Solution-Focused Therapy looks for practical, small steps a person can try between sessions to move toward clearer goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Keely treats this as a collaboration and will help identify which combination of listening, mindfulness and goal-focused tasks fits a person’s needs and preferences. She adjusts methods as people learn what helps them most.

Her background includes telephone and video conversations from her university roles, and she has experience providing face-to-face clinic and home visits. If you want online sessions, confirm the exact session options before booking so they match your routine. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling around study, work or family commitments; it can allow a shorter check-in, avoid travel time, or let someone choose not to be on camera. Registered or accredited professionals can use these ways of working to keep therapy practical and relevant to everyday life.
