About Keely
Keely Strange is a counsellor who uses a person-centred style to help people manage stress and anxiety. She offers calm, non-judgemental one-to-one support and listens closely to what matters to each client. Keely works remotely as well as in person and is comfortable using telephone or video for sessions.
She has around nine years of practice and many hundreds of counselling hours working across universities and community services. Much of her role has involved helping students and staff manage study, work-life balance and a wide range of mental health challenges.
Background and approach
This includes depression, PTSD, ADHD and addiction-related issues. Keely draws on Client-Centred Therapy to create a warm space where people can name feelings and make sense of them. She also uses solution-focused techniques to set small, practical goals and mindfulness strategies to reduce stress in the moment.
Her approach is collaborative and paced to each person’s needs. In everyday work she provides brief welfare conversations as well as longer therapeutic sessions. She has experience offering telephone counselling and has continued remote practice via video calls.
This means she is practiced at working without visual cues and can still follow and respond to complex emotional material. Keely follows the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy framework as a professional guide. She keeps to clear boundaries and regular supervision.
People looking for steady, grounded support through change often find her practical and empathetic manner useful.
How these approaches work online and in session
Keely uses Client-Centred Therapy to build a trusting, non-judgemental space where people can talk through what is worrying them. This approach focuses on listening and understanding so clients can work out their own next steps.She also draws on Solution-Focused Therapy to set clear, achievable goals. That typically means identifying small changes that make a noticeable difference and tracking progress between sessions. Mindfulness Therapy is used to teach simple attention and breathing practices that reduce stress and help manage anxiety symptoms in daily life.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Keely will discuss options and agree a plan that reflects the client’s goals, preferences and practical circumstances. The process is collaborative and adjusts as the client’s needs evolve.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video lets people speak face to face, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited and messaging suits shorter check-ins or flexible scheduling. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, study and family commitments.
