About Olivia

Olivia Kellett is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has five years of professional experience. She works with people facing relationship strain, family problems, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related difficulties and low self-esteem. Olivia also supports those dealing with abandonment, attachment concerns, infidelity, and feelings of emptiness or isolation.

Her approach is practical and conversational. Sessions aim to identify patterns in relationships and feelings, then try small changes that can make daily life easier. Olivia uses ideas from attachment work, emotionally-focused therapy and cognitive behavioural techniques to look at how thoughts and behaviours keep problems going.

She offers direct, steady support while keeping a sense of lightness where appropriate. Conversations are aimed at helping people notice their strengths and take manageable steps forward. Clients can expect a blend of talking, reflecting on relationship patterns, and practising simple skills between sessions.

Olivia has worked with people affected by divorce and separation, blended family issues, codependency, control and commitment worries, and the emotional impact of migration. She also addresses trauma-related concerns and the shame or guilt that can follow painful experiences.

Sessions are available in English, Russian and Ukrainian, and she accepts international clients. Costs vary with location and are arranged through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and book an initial session.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Olivia uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationship patterns affect current connections. This work focuses on recognising how you relate to others and practising different ways of responding when relationships feel shaky.

She also uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help name and work with strong feelings in relationships, and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to spot unhelpful thoughts and try practical behaviour changes. EFT is useful for intimacy and relationship repair, while CBT helps with self-critical thoughts and day-to-day coping.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Olivia will discuss options with each person and decide together which methods make the most sense given their goals and preferences. That collaborative process can begin in the first few sessions and shift as needs change.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around study or work, allow shorter check-ins, and reduce travel time. It also makes it possible to work with a therapist in a different country while using English, Russian or Ukrainian.
