About Kelsey Young
Kelsey Young is a BACP-registered integrative counsellor who approaches therapy with practical compassion and clear-eyed realism. As an integrative practitioner she combines several therapeutic methods to meet each person where they are, favouring careful listening and a collaborative stance rather than a single fixed model. BACP indicates registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, a recognised professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists.
Kelsey recognises that life can feel messy, overwhelming, and difficult to navigate. She creates a down-to-earth atmosphere in which people can explore anxiety, grief, neurodivergence, periods of feeling stuck, and other personal challenges without pressure or judgment. The work draws on a blend of Gestalt, existential, third-wave cognitive behavioural approaches, person-centred practice, traditional cognitive-behavioural techniques, and relational psychodynamic ideas to tailor support to individual needs.
Rather than promising a linear path to recovery, Kelsey focuses on steady, practical steps and honest dialogue that respect each person’s pace and experience. Her practice aims to offer a dependable, nonjudgmental space for reflection, change, and realistic coping strategies that fit everyday life.
