About Nelly
Nelly Kamwa is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom who supports people coping with anxiety, stress and depression. She also helps with relationship concerns, addictions, grief and trauma. Nelly aims to make the first step feel manageable and offers a steady presence as people begin to talk about difficult feelings.
Nelly creates an open, non-judgemental space where clients can share thoughts and feelings. Conversations focus on what matters most to the person and on small, practical steps that feel doable between sessions.
Background and approach
She listens closely and helps people organise what feels overwhelming into clearer next moves. Her work draws on a mix of approaches that include cognitive behavioural techniques and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. She also uses attachment-informed ideas and client-centred ways of working to tailor sessions to each person.
These approaches are used to address issues such as eating and sleeping problems, self-esteem, anger and intimacy-related worries. With five years of professional experience and the NCPS credential, Nelly brings steady clinical experience and calm support. She works collaboratively to set goals and to monitor progress as needs change.
Many clients find sessions helpful for coping with life changes, chronic health stress and long-standing patterns linked to abandonment or attachment worries. Nelly offers a practical, empathetic approach that aims to reduce overwhelm and help people build coping skills. Conversations begin at a pace that suits each person and focus on real-life adjustments that can improve day-to-day wellbeing.
Approaches that translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice painful thoughts without getting overwhelmed and to focus on values-based actions that matter most. It is often used for anxiety, stress and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, CBT, looks at connections between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It suits issues such as anxiety, low mood and sleeping problems. Attachment-Based Therapy emphasises how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people work on intimacy, trust and communication concerns.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss your goals, preferences and how symptoms show up day to day. Together you will try strategies, review what helps, and adjust methods so sessions match what you need rather than following a fixed plan.
Online therapy offers practical benefits such as fitting sessions around work or caregiving, choosing a shorter check-in by message, or using phone calls when bandwidth is limited. Video calls allow real-time conversation similar to face-to-face work, while live chat and text-based messaging can be useful for ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to keep continuity of care and to experiment with approaches in ways that suit your routine.
