Ellie Pulley , NCPS

Ellie Pulley is a compassionate counsellor with 11 years of experience supporting people through a wide range of emotional and life challenges. She works in a warm, nonjudgmental, informal, and interactive way, tailoring each session and treatment plan to the individual needs of the person she is supporting. Ellie recognises that seeking help can feel daunting and that opening up requires courage, and she draws on both professional training and personal understanding to make that first step feel more manageable.

Her practice blends evidence-informed approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and client-centered methods, to help clients develop practical skills and deepen self-awareness. Ellie has experience addressing issues such as anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, relationship and family difficulties, grief, parenting concerns, sleep problems, anger, and coping with life changes. She also has focused experience with attachment and abandonment concerns, codependency, chronic illness and pain, and caregiver stress.

Holding the NCPS credential, which indicates a counselling qualification, Ellie offers steady, supportive guidance throughout the therapeutic process. She works collaboratively with clients to set goals, adapt strategies as needed, and help them move toward the outcomes they want for their lives.

Approaches That Translate Well to Online Therapy

Ellie often integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy into her online practice. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and developing practical strategies to change them, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, empathetic therapeutic relationship that helps clients explore their feelings and values at their own pace. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to clarify what matters to them and to build psychological flexibility through mindful acceptance and committed action.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Ellie works with each person to assess needs, preferences, and goals, and then shapes the therapeutic plan accordingly. That flexibility means methods can be adjusted over time to match changing priorities and progress.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for many people. Video calls and phone sessions provide real-time conversation similar to in-person meetings, while live chat and text-based messaging allow for brief check-ins and flexible support between sessions. These options can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to access licensed professionals from different locations.
