Kindred-Ear: Untangle the overwhelm. Calm the chaos. Feel lighter. Live freer.
Online counselling where you feel heard, understood and supported. You don’t have to go through it alone.
I’m Kelly, and I am truly passionate about how this work can empower others to lead more fulfilling lives. My own experience of being in therapy has shown me the deep benefit of feeling truly seen, heard, and understood, and how life-enhancing that can be. This is something I seek to offer to you, and it would be my privilege to be a part of your journey.
Hi there!
My approach
I am a therapeutic counsellor who puts you in control. I believe that you are the expert, and my role is to work alongside you offering insights to explore what is going on underneath. I understand how life can become too much at times and by working together you will gain the knowledge, awareness, and tools necessary to understand yourself better and the strength to manage challenges as they arise.

“Kelly is an asset to my son. He has ADD and she has provided him a tremendous amount of emotional support and continues to do so. Her experience within education settings is a bonus. I could not have gone through this without her knowledge and patience. My son is now showing more confidence and has become more social at school. I highly recommend Kelly to support your child.”

“I decided to seek counselling because I was struggling to attend college due to my social anxiety. Kelly gave me a space where I could feel relaxed and talk about what was going on for me. I felt free to be open and share what was really going on inside and not worry about being judged. We worked together to control my over-thinking and for me to be kinder towards myself. Kelly has helped me get to a point where I am now more confident in myself and able to approach my peers at college. Since working with Kelly, I enjoy college a lot more and I am excited to start my second year!”

"As a Caribbean male of near retirement age, I had always considered myself to be emotionally self-sufficient and able to work through my own issues without external support, yet 5 years ago I found myself in need of emotional assistance and sought the help of a male therapist of similar age and culture as I believed I would be better understood and seen by another who was similar to myself. I perceived myself as a ‘worldly wise soon to be elder’ and could not imagine what someone of a younger generation would have to offer. Some years later I again found the need to seek support and as my previous therapist was unavailable, was directed towards Kelly by a colleague who felt she would be ideally placed to support me through the needs I presented at the time that related to my children and feelings around generational understanding and acceptance. I couldn’t imagine what a younger therapist would have to offer that would build on my previous experience and was very sceptical but decided to again open myself up to the therapeutic process. I initially attempted to hold back, not wanting to be perceived as ‘weak’ but soon found that Kelly held my hidden fragile self with care and respectful regard. I felt seen, heard, and understood in a way I had previously felt was not attainable. During our sessions, Kelly demonstrated a level of personable professionalism that felt effortless, was enabling, and gave me the space to explore without judgement."
