An amazing Therapist!!! Helping cope with the most challenging period in my life.

Reviewed January 2026

Joseph is a fantastic therapist and I feel safe to share whatever I need to in our sessions. I feel he hears me and allows me space to explore my issues and come up with my own solutions but also is to the point and able to challenge my thinking which I find extremely helpful. I would thoroughly recommend him ! I am so grateful for his support.

Are you struggling with self-doubt after a difficult relationship? I help people rebuild confidence and trust in themselves so they can move forward feeling stronger and more secure.

Do you find yourself constantly second-guessing your own feelings? Do you replay conversations in your head, wondering if you were too sensitive or overreacting? No matter what you do, does it feel like it’s never enough? If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone.

Maybe you feel like you’ve experienced narcissistic abuse or been hurt by someone whose actions always seemed to revolve around their own needs. Narcissism can leave you feeling unseen, unheard, and doubting your own reality. Many of my clients don’t immediately recognize what they’ve been through, but they do know what it’s like to walk on eggshells, to feel dismissed, manipulated, or blamed. When someone repeatedly undermines your confidence, it can make you question everything. But self-doubt doesn’t have to define you.

Together, we’ll work on breaking free from that cycle. We’ll untangle the confusion, help you trust your instincts again, and rebuild your confidence so that no one else gets to dictate your worth. You’ll learn how to spot unhealthy patterns, set boundaries that actually stick, and walk away without looking back.

Relearning trust—especially in yourself—can feel daunting, but it is possible. My approach isn’t just about understanding what happened; it’s about moving forward in a way that feels right for you.

I bring more than just counselling experience to my work. For over five years, I’ve worked across different areas of care—supporting people through daily life challenges, helping them reconnect socially, and working with those processing grief, neurodivergence, and domestic abuse. This breadth of experience allows me to approach healing in a way that is both practical and deeply empathetic, offering guidance that meets you where you are.

Counselling is a space for you to explore, reflect, and build confidence in yourself. You can expect a direct yet compassionate approach—one that challenges unhelpful thoughts while supporting your growth. We will work together to untangle the effects of past experiences, strengthen your ability to set boundaries, and develop a sense of self-trust that lasts long after therapy ends.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Very informative and provides relatable insights. I am progressing in my journey with Joseph's help. Highly recommend, very calm and gives you time to speak.

Great listener and excellent at deep diving into causes and reasons for certain behaviours

Joseph is warm, supportive, a good listener, and has connected well with what I'm going through. Speaking to him is a great help.

I have found Joseph helpful and knowledgeable, he offers great insight and challenges my thought processes in a really constructive way. I have found my sessions very useful and have already experienced a drop in my panic attacks and anxiety levels. Highly recommended :)

Iv only had two sessions with Joseph Kelly. But I have great confidence in him and the help and way he responses to me. And feel I can talk very openly. And have in a short time started to feel better and start to be the person I’m trying to be, for my self and family.
