About Nelly

Nelly Kamwa is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who supports people feeling stressed, anxious or depressed. She helps with relationship strain, addiction concerns, grief, sleep problems and parenting pressures. Nelly also works with issues such as anger, low self-esteem, trauma and intimacy-related worries. She has five years of professional experience and practises with an open, non-judgemental approach.

Nelly creates a calm space where people can talk about difficult thoughts and feelings. Sessions aim to make small, practical changes that fit into everyday life. She uses a mix of methods to suit each person rather than one fixed method.

Her approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centred ideas. That means conversations focus on noticing thoughts, identifying helpful actions and building on a person’s strengths. She also uses concepts from attachment work to look at how early relationships influence current patterns.

Nelly describes therapy as a collaborative process. She helps set goals and tests what works in simple steps. People can expect clear, direct guidance alongside time to reflect and talk things through.

Her practice covers a wide range of concerns, including eating and sleeping difficulties, coping with life changes, ADHD-related struggles, and long-term health or caregiving stress. Nelly accepts international clients and runs sessions in English.

How her approaches translate to online work

Nelly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and attachment-based ideas in her practice. CBT focuses on noticing unhelpful thinking patterns and trying different behaviours to see what changes. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people identify values, accept difficult thoughts, and take actions that match what matters to them. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and coping styles.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then try methods that best match each person’s needs. Decisions about pacing and focus are made collaboratively during sessions.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes working with someone in another region or country possible, while the practical arrangements for sessions are agreed at scheduling time.
