About me
I’m Kelsey, a BABCP-accredited cognitive behavioural psychotherapist. I offer one-to-one therapy for adults and teens in Brockley and near Bank in the City of London, as well as online across the UK. I work with a broad range of emotional and mental health difficulties. You’re welcome to get in touch even if you’re unsure how to describe what’s bringing you to therapy.
My approach is largely based on third-wave CBT. In practice, this means we’ll explore how you relate to difficult thoughts and feelings, and how you can respond to them in ways that help you move towards what matters to you. That might involve learning to notice a familiar worry as it shows up, making room for the discomfort it brings, and choosing what you want to do next.
Embodiment and mind–body practices are a central part of my work. We might pay attention to how emotions show up in your body, or use grounding, movement, or breath awareness to explore what helps you feel more present. I’m a certified yoga teacher and am currently completing my qualification in yoga therapy. We’ll decide together which practices feel right for you and work at a pace that feels manageable.
Training, qualifications & experience
I’m a BABCP-accredited cognitive behavioural psychotherapist and hold an MSc in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy with Distinction. I offer one-to-one therapy for adults and teens, drawing on third-wave CBT, mindfulness and mind–body practices.
Before training as a therapist, I spent nearly ten years as a secondary school teacher. That experience informs how I build relationships with teenagers and make therapy approachable and relevant to their everyday lives.
I’m the Course Convenor for the MSc and PGDip CBT programmes at Goldsmiths, University of London, where I teach and supervise trainee therapists. I’m also Clinical Director at the Power to Live Foundation. I’m a certified yoga teacher and am currently completing my yoga therapy qualification with The Minded Institute.
Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
The BABCP is the lead organisation for Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in the UK. Membership is open to anyone with an interest in the practice, theory or development of CBT. BABCP also provides accreditation for CBT therapists. BABCP accredited members adhere to the Standards of Conduct, Performance and Ethics in the Practice of Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapies, and are willing to be scrutinised in this adherence as required.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
