Kelly Punton, NCPS

Kelly Punton is a United Kingdom based therapist who holds the NCPS credential and brings five years of professional experience to her practice. She supports people navigating grief and loss, rebuilding motivation and self-esteem, and adjusting to life changes, helping clients identify practical steps toward the goals they set for themselves.

Kelly fosters an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be expressed honestly. She works collaboratively with clients to explore the issues that are holding them back and to develop strategies that allow forward movement in day-to-day life and relationships.

Beginning therapy can require real courage, and Kelly acknowledges that first step with encouragement and respect. Her approach balances empathy with actionable support so clients can make meaningful progress toward the outcomes they want to achieve.

Therapeutic approaches for online support

Kelly often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients notice difficult thoughts and feelings without letting them dictate actions. ACT supports people in clarifying what matters most to them and taking values-based steps forward, which can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which prioritizes empathy and a nonjudgmental listening stance so clients can explore their experiences at their own pace. This approach can be helpful for improving self-esteem, processing grief, and strengthening relationships.

Kelly may incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical skills for coping with mood and worry. Throughout the work she partners with clients to determine which methods fit best, adapting the approach based on their needs, goals, and preferences in a collaborative way.

Online sessions - whether by video call, phone, live chat, or text messaging - offer flexibility for busy schedules and make it easier to access consistent support from registered professionals. These options allow clients to continue therapy from home or while managing other commitments, helping maintain momentum between sessions.
