In Person Counselling in Leigh-on-Sea

Welcome, My name is Laura, I am a fully qualified Integrative Therapeutic Counsellor offering both long and short-term therapy. We are all presented with many different challenges in all aspects of our daily lives, including work, health, relationships and with our own well-being. Reaching out for help can often feel overwhelming, however, the rewards in taking that difficult first step can be life-changing. I have experience and successfully worked with those suffering with depression, anxiety, loneliness, loss & grief domestic abuse, suicidal thoughts and chronic illness amongst various other issues.

Welcome! I am Lina Kelly and I work with clients in the UK and globally to help them to get 'unstuck', whether it's your stress levels, career, anxiety, phobias, addiction, low mood, setting goals or something else. I guarantee to help you to get back on track, fast. As a professionally trained Psychologist and experienced NLP practitioner, hypnotherapist and life coach, I have the tools and understanding to help you to create the life you imagine and get a renewed sense of self and to make those changes that you have been thinking of for so long.

Human connections are the threads that weave our lives together. They provide us with a sense of belonging, purpose, and emotional nourishment. Yet, within these intricate bonds, we encounter a kaleidoscope of emotions. Uncomfortable feelings may arise from repressed memories of past traumas, grief over life's losses, alongside additional stressors of modern day living and a host of other variables. In the midst of this emotional tapestry, therapy becomes a sanctuary—a space where we untangle these threads, explore our inner landscapes, and find solace. It’s where vulnerability meets resilience, and healing begins.

I am a couples counsellor / relationship therapist. I focus on helping couples and individuals lead more contented lives. You may feel the spark has gone from your relationship, navigating a new one or not in a relationship at all. No matter what your circumstance, the chances are, if you are reading this, you have concerns about how you’re relating to others. If you're concerned about any of the following issues in your relationship, I may be able to help you: trust and jealousy, intimacy, family relationships, communication, self-esteem, infidelity, understanding each other, depression and anxiety, separation and divorce.

Are you struggling with bereavement, anxiety or depression? Maybe you’re experiencing relationship issues or feeling trapped in a cycle of negative thought patterns and unhealthy ways of coping. Maybe your way of coping has now become the problem; i.e. addiction. If you are longing for change and need a safe accepting space to identify what that is and work towards it; I can provide this. Together, we can work to set goals, make changes, identify and break behavioural patterns, validate your feelings, process past trauma and reframe thoughts. Hopefully resulting in an improvement in your wellbeing, mental health and life overall.

I am a qualified Clinical Psychologist with over 20 years experience of working with people in distress. Over the past 14 years I have been working as a qualified psychologist in the NHS supporting adults, children and young people who are experiencing a range of emotional difficulties. I work with complex issues and find satisfaction in empowering people to live their best lives. If you are looking for someone to support your family through a challenging time, work towards achieving a more contented life or want to improve your relationships then do get in touch.

I am an Integrative Counsellor accredited member of the National Counselling Society. I work with both adults and young people. I offer a confidential, warm, friendly, supportive, non-judgemental environment. A space where you can feel safe to talk about your feelings, thoughts, fears and concerns to help you understand and clarify what it is that is troubling you and to help you find ways to work through your issues. We can work together to help enhance your self-awareness and resilience as we work towards achieving a healthy, positive outcome.

Most of my clients come to me knowing they are not happy but they don't always know why. Sometimes it is because of the people and circumstances around them and sometimes it is because they keep repeating the same behaviours that are not producing a happy life for them. My job is to help people understand what it is in their lives that they are not happy with, or want to change and to imagine a life with the new changes in it. I work with the client to provide a safe, comfortable environment for them to explore what is going on for them and how they can make the changes to live a happy, fulfilling life.

I provide a safe, supportive and confidential space in which clients can seek insight into any issues of concern. My individual clientele spends all ages including children. I also work with couples and families. Short or long-term therapy is offered. My extensive training allows me to draw upon multiple disciplines to tailor the support to the needs of the client.

Are you looking for effective help to deal with trauma, panic and anxiety? Are you fed up with labels and diagnoses that do nothing to resolve the symptoms and pain that you're suffering with? CPTSD, PTSD, GAD and BPD are labels that define your symptoms, but that don't tackle the cause or do anything useful to relieve them. I specialise in helping people with anxiety and PSTD and have helped many people just like you, who have been struggling, sometimes for decades. I won't dredge up unnecessary past experiences - I only work with what is relevant. Also if you prefer, you won't have to speak in detail about your issue.

The counselling I provide creates a safe, empathic environment and sensitive space for a person to explore and resolve personal difficulties and limitations they may be experiencing, and to move beyond them. It can also help to enhance your relationship/connection with yourself and others.

Have you ever wondered if counselling is right for you? Do you want to explore the idea in a safe, judgement free environment? Your search is over, luckily you have found me and that's exactly what we can together! My therapeutic style of practice involves creating a safe, empathetic environment where successful relationships are built on trust due to an open-minded, non-judgmental approach. This practice puts the client at the heart of the therapy allowing them to explore past or current situations, emotions, thoughts and feelings.

I enjoy working with adults and children who are drawn to working creatively. It is a privilege to work with those who have experienced trauma in their childhood and who want to work through painful and difficult feelings. I believe all of us deserve to be able to enjoy life, free from depression, stress, fear, and anxiety.

I am a qualified (MBACP Registered) Counsellor/Supervisor with over 16 years experience working with individuals of all ages (both adults and young people), with an eclectic approach in line with the BACP Ethical Framework. My work includes that with Individuals, Couples and Families, whilst experience has also led me to run regular workshops and support groups.
