Kellie Giunta, BACP
About me
I am an **accredited therapist and clinical supervisor** with over twelve years of practice, specialising in anxiety and trauma-informed care. Alongside my private work, I am the founder and co‑manager of a charity-based therapy centre, which provides affordable, accessible support and a safe space for all. My professional journey has been shaped by a commitment to compassion, inclusivity, and the belief that emotional safety is the foundation of healing. I offer a calm, non‑judgemental space where you can bring whatever you’re carrying, without fear of being rushed, analysed, or misunderstood. My approach is gentle, compassionate, and grounded in years of experience supporting people through anxiety, trauma, and the moments that feel too heavy to hold alone. You set the pace; I walk alongside you. If you’re looking for a therapist who listens deeply, respects your story, and helps you feel safe enough to explore what’s really going on, you’re welcome here.
My education and training have equipped me with advanced skills in trauma-informed approaches and supervision. As an accredited clinical supervisor, I support other practitioners in maintaining safe, ethical, and reflective practice. I continue to engage in ongoing professional development to ensure my work remains responsive to the diverse needs of clients. Over the years, I have worked across different settings, supporting individuals through challenges ranging from anxiety and loss to complex trauma, always with a focus on creating a supportive and collaborative environment.
My therapeutic approach is gentle, affirming, and tailored to each person’s unique story. I work with trauma-informed boundaries, drawing on evidence-based techniques while remaining flexible and client-led. I integrate a **Person-Centred approach**, which places the client at the heart of the process, fostering empathy, authenticity, and unconditional positive regard. Alongside this, I use **Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)** to help clients identify and reframe unhelpful thought patterns, develop practical coping strategies, and build resilience. This combination allows me to balance deep emotional exploration with structured, solution-focused tools.
I can help clients by offering clarity, compassion, and practical strategies that support them in navigating life’s challenges. My role is to walk alongside each person on their journey, providing encouragement and guidance as they move towards healing and growth. I hold the belief that with the right support, everyone has the capacity to create meaningful change and find greater wellbeing.
