About Kelly
Kelly Punton is a counsellor who uses approachable, practical methods to help people facing work and wellbeing challenges. She welcomes conversations about grief, low mood, anxiety and stress. Kelly also supports people dealing with self-esteem, motivation and life transitions. She holds NCPS and has five years of experience working with these concerns in the United Kingdom.
Kelly creates a calm, non-judgemental space for people to talk through what feels hard. Sessions focus on what matters to the person right now and on small steps that feel manageable. She listens for patterns that keep someone stuck and helps them try different ways of responding.
Her practice draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside client-centred and solution-focused ideas. Those approaches are used in simple, practical ways - noticing thoughts, testing helpful behaviours and setting short-term goals. Trauma-informed methods are available when past harm affects current life.
Kelly often works with issues linked to relationships, parenting strains, work stress and major life events such as loss or separation. She also helps with career concerns, compassion fatigue and problems with intimacy and communication. Her additional focus areas include attachment and abandonment wounds, body image and fertility-related distress.
Taking the first step can feel difficult and Kelly encourages people to move at their own pace. The process starts with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a session to see how the working relationship feels.
How Kelly's approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on the values that matter to them. It can be useful for stress, anxiety, low mood and life transitions by guiding small actions that match what a person cares about. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses practical experiments to shift unhelpful patterns. It often helps with anxiety, depression and problem-solving at work. Client-Centred Therapy emphasises empathy and listening so the person feels heard and understood before making changes.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what has helped or not helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adapt them as needed over time so the plan fits the person's life and aims.
Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. Online work can make it easier to keep short, regular check-ins around work shifts or caregiving, or to choose a quieter setting that suits the person.
