About Ellie
Ellie Pulley works from a warm, person-centred stance that brings together practical therapy tools. She uses approaches such as cognitive behavioural principles and acceptance-based methods to help people manage stress, anxiety and addictive behaviours. Ellie holds an NCPS credential and has 11 years of experience in the United Kingdom.
She welcomes clients who speak English and accepts international clients. Ellie keeps sessions informal and interactive. She aims to make it easier to speak about difficult things by creating a calm, non-judgemental space.
How Ellie works
People often come with worries about trauma, low self-esteem, grief or relationship problems, and Ellie helps them talk through those concerns step by step. Her work draws on cognitive behavioural therapy to spot patterns of thinking that feed anxiety and low mood.
She also uses acceptance and commitment ideas to help people identify what matters most and build small, workable changes around those values. Attachment-based perspectives are used when past relationships shape current reactions. This can help with abandonment, trust or intimacy-related issues.
Dialectical behaviour approaches add practical skills for emotion regulation and coping with strong feelings. Ellie has supported people with parenting strain, work stress, sleeping problems, chronic illness and compassion fatigue. She also addresses issues such as codependency, body image, addiction and anger in focused sessions.
Sessions are offered via video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Ellie works collaboratively to shape goals and practical steps that fit each person’s life and pace.

How Ellie’s approaches translate to online therapy
Ellie uses cognitive behavioural therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try small, practical changes. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression and sleep issues because it focuses on clear steps and homework tasks. She also draws on attachment-based work, which looks at how early relationships affect current trust, intimacy and communication. This approach can help when people struggle with abandonment, commitment or closeness.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Ellie works collaboratively to identify goals and then adapts techniques to suit each person's needs and preferences. Together they decide whether to emphasise thinking skills, acceptance and values work, or emotion-regulation tools based on what feels most helpful.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for deeper discussion, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a camera isn’t wanted. Live chat and text-based messaging suit brief check-ins, writing out thoughts, or fitting therapy into a busy day. These options make it easier for people to keep therapy consistent and practical alongside work, family or other commitments.
