About Patricia
Counsellor Patricia Kellerman is a BACP member who has eight years of practice in the United Kingdom. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship matters, motivation and self-esteem. Patricia also lists experience with grief, addiction, trauma and intimacy-related concerns.
Patricia prefers straightforward, conversational work. She listens to what matters most and helps people talk through specific problems. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer thinking rather than jargon.
Her main approaches include client-centred methods, cognitive behavioural techniques and mindfulness. Client-centred work means the person’s experience guides the session. CBT looks at thoughts and behaviours to reduce anxiety and tackle unhelpful patterns. Mindfulness practices support managing stress and staying present.
Patricia often helps with career stress, coping with life changes and issues such as anger or low self-esteem. She also supports people dealing with relationship breakdown, infidelity, separation, or communication problems. Complex areas listed include attachment concerns, codependency and feelings of emptiness.
Clients can expect short, practical conversations alongside reflective work. Patricia will work with each person to set goals and check progress over time. She encourages honest, plain speaking and steady steps forward.
Therapeutic approaches and how online counselling works
Patricia uses client-centred work to follow what matters to the person. This approach relies on listening and responding to the client’s experience so sessions reflect their priorities. It is useful when someone needs to be heard and to make sense of feelings. She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour. CBT offers clear steps to test and change unhelpful patterns and can help with anxiety, low mood and anger. Mindfulness therapy is added to teach attention skills and calm, which can reduce stress and reactivity. Finding the right mix is part of the process. Patricia will discuss goals and preferences and then try approaches that fit the person’s needs. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as work progresses. The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel, or allow shorter check-ins when time is limited. It can also let someone choose audio rather than video if that feels more comfortable. Registered or accredited professionals can offer these practical benefits while helping people work on clear steps and coping strategies.Areas of expertise
