***We all have ups and downs in life, and we manage those times as best as we can. I am lucky to have found in Kelly O'Donnell the counsellor I was looking for to support me in the process of dealing with my thoughts and feelings during a difficult time and also to continue what we can call "maintenance therapy" as part of a healthy mental and emotional lifestyle. She did not hesitate to take on the challenge (as I am not a native English-speaking person) and we have established a very good connection from the start, which is the foundation of a successful therapy through communication. I admire Kelly's ability to adjust to my own pace and her skills in identifying my personal needs from therapy, through a warm, empathic, intelligent, open and very professional approach. ***

Good morning, Kelly,
Amanda and I would like to thank you for all you have done for Archie. We feel he has really benefited from his counselling sessions and is back to his amazing self.
We can’t thank you enough.
Stay safe and we wish you all the best in your work that you do.

8 years, 8 years it took me to pluck up the courage to go to counselling!
8 years it took me to change my life. I could not have done it without Kelly. She is warm, friendly, kind, understanding!! If you have been thinking about going to counselling, then please do not hesitate! There is nothing to worry about, it’s the best decision you’ll ever make! And especially to Kelly - she has helped me change my life for the better!!

When I decided to return to therapy, it was originally because of grieving the loss of two of my relatives.
When I first had sessions with Kelly I remember how welcoming and safe I felt in her presence. Kelly not only helped me process these difficult emotions but also was able to read between the lines and dig beneath the surface of what I am saying, and also the things I am not saying.
She is able to let you vent, whilst guiding you to asking the right questions of yourself, to bring you out of the fogginess of your own perspective.
This makes her very versatile, when helping with complex trauma, as sometimes we may have difficulty understanding what the real problem is or have difficulty expressing it.
She has a great deal of compassion and comes with her own life experiences which really help you to feel more normal, and less misunderstood.
She literally changed my life. I am eternally grateful. She is an absolute blessing to anyone who is lucky enough to receive her support.
