Background and approach
Nelly encourages small, manageable steps so progress feels doable rather than overwhelming. In sessions she draws on a mix of approaches to suit each person. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy helps spot unhelpful thinking patterns.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on values and actions that matter to the client. Attachment-based ideas are used to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. Nelly has five years of professional experience and holds NCPS as a credential.
She works with people across a wide range of issues including chronic illness, caregiver stress, body image concerns, divorce and communication problems. The tone is practical and empathetic, not rushed. People who choose Nelly can expect collaborative planning and clear suggestions to try between sessions.
Work may include short exercises, new ways to manage difficult emotions, and checking what works in everyday life. The emphasis is on real change that fits each person’s life.

Sessions & fees
Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps towards those values. It is often used for anxiety, stress and life changes by focusing on actions rather than getting stuck in difficult thoughts.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions link together and teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns. It can be helpful for depression, anxiety, sleeping issues and some eating concerns.
Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationship patterns affect current behaviour and connections. This work can help with intimacy problems, communication struggles and issues rooted in abandonment or attachment difficulties.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and will jointly decide what fits your needs, goals and preferences. Sessions can mix methods so the plan can shift as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for shorter check-ins and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving and travel, and allow different ways to stay connected as needs change.
