About Nelly
Nelly Kamwa helps people facing stress, anxiety, low mood and relationship strain. She also supports people dealing with addiction, grief, trauma and concerns about intimacy. People bring worries about sleep, eating, parenting and self-esteem too, and she works with ADHD-related difficulties and life changes.
Nelly creates a calm, open space where clients can talk without feeling judged. She aims to make sessions straightforward and useful. Conversations focus on what matters now and practical steps to manage day-to-day challenges.
How Nelly works
Her approach draws on several therapy methods to match what each person needs. She uses cognitive behavioural ideas to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and build different habits. She also uses acceptance and commitment strategies to clarify values and manage difficult emotions without getting stuck.
Attachment-based thinking informs how she looks at relationship patterns and feelings of abandonment. Dialectical behaviour skills are used when people need tools for emotional regulation and managing intense states. Client-centred principles guide the way she listens and responds to each person.
Nelly has five years of experience and holds NCPS credentials. She is based in the United Kingdom and carries out therapy in English. Sessions are offered online in a mix of formats to fit different needs and routines.
Taking the first step can feel hard, and Nelly focuses on small, steady changes. She helps people set realistic goals and build practical skills that fit their life and priorities.

Online support options
How therapy approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, encourages people to notice difficult thoughts and feelings without letting them dictate actions. It helps clarify personal values and guide small steps towards a more meaningful life, useful for anxiety, depression and life transitions.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours. It teaches practical exercises to change unhelpful thinking and build new routines, which can help with stress, sleep problems and mood difficulties.
Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them as progress is made.
Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and exercises, phone sessions can fit a busy day or lower bandwidth, and messaging or live chat can work for brief check-ins or prompt support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel while keeping care consistent.
