Kellie Giunta is a counsellor who uses a gentle, trauma-informed way of working. She brings 12 years of experience to sessions and focuses on making people feel heard and respected. She offers a calm space for discussing anxiety, grief, addiction and other heavy issues.

Her approach blends client-centred listening with practical tools from cognitive behavioural therapy. That mix helps people both to talk through painful memories and to try different coping strategies between sessions.

Background and approach

Kellie emphasises pacing: clients set the speed and she follows. She has run and co-managed a charity therapy centre that aimed to increase access to affordable support. That background informs how she frames practical, down-to-earth help.

It also shapes her interest in working with issues linked to adoption and foster care, attachment, and fatherhood concerns. Over the years she has supported people facing stress, relationship problems, depression, sleep difficulties, career strain and compassion fatigue. She also works with trauma and abuse, domestic violence, and drug and alcohol addiction.

Kellie brings steady curiosity rather than quick fixes. She holds BACP as her listed credential and continues to develop her practice through ongoing professional learning and clinical supervision work. Sessions aim to combine emotional understanding with steps clients can use between meetings.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape current feelings and patterns. Online sessions can use reflective conversation to help people notice relationship patterns and practise different ways of connecting or setting boundaries.

Client-centred therapy emphasises being listened to without judgement and following the client’s pace. In remote sessions this looks like a steady, accepting presence that helps people feel able to bring hard things into the room and decide the next steps.

Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) offers clear steps to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. Online formats let the therapist and client try practical tasks, homework and thought records between meetings to track progress.

Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about their goals and preferences and together decide which methods suit their needs. That collaborative planning can shift as progress is made.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls work well for deeper conversations and visual connection. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat and text-based messaging provide quick check-ins or ongoing reflective notes. These options help people fit therapy around work, caring responsibilities and other commitments.
