About Nelly
Nelly Kamwa is a NCPS counsellor in the United Kingdom with five years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties and depression, among other concerns. Nelly also supports those coping with addiction, grief, trauma and issues around intimacy and self-esteem.
Her approach is straightforward and conversational. Sessions focus on what is on your mind now and practical ways to cope. She encourages people to name difficult thoughts and feelings and to try small changes between meetings.
Nelly uses a mix of methods drawn from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Attachment-based work. That means she may help clients notice unhelpful thought patterns, practise new behaviours, and look at how early attachments affect current relationships. She sometimes integrates skills from Dialectical Behaviour Therapy where emotion regulation is needed.
People can expect a calm, direct style that aims to make problems easier to manage. Nelly pays attention to everyday routines such as sleep and eating when those are part of the issue. She also works with life transitions, parenting stresses and longer-term difficulties like chronic illness.
Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients. Practical next steps involve the platform's matching process and scheduling a first meeting so goals and ways of working can be discussed further.
How therapeutic approaches are used in online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing painful thoughts and choosing actions that reflect personal values rather than trying to push feelings away. It can help when shame or guilt keeps someone stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical exercises to test unhelpful beliefs and build new habits. Attachment-Based Therapy examines how early relationship patterns shape current reactions and can be useful for relationship and intimacy concerns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Nelly will discuss different methods with each person and decide together which fits best based on goals and preferences. That collaborative decision can change over time as needs shift.
Confirm the session formats before booking because the biography does not list specific options. Online sessions can help fit therapy into a busy week, allow quieter check-ins that do not need long travel, and make it easier to keep continuity while living in different places. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises and between-session activities to work in virtual meetings so that therapy feels practical and relevant to everyday life.
