About Nels

Nels Rodwell is a counsellor with 25 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She holds the NCPS credential and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and depression. Nels believes people know their own stories and that small changes can lead to clearer thinking and more satisfying relationships.

In sessions she listens first and asks practical questions to clarify what matters most.

Background and approach

She uses a blend of client-centred listening, attachment work and cognitive techniques to help people understand patterns of thought and behaviour. Conversations aim to surface strengths and build simple, usable tools for everyday life. Nels trained in person-centred approaches, Gestalt and cognitive behavioural techniques, and draws on emotionally focused ideas and existential themes when they fit the work.

She also combines counselling with massage in face-to-face sessions and offers writing therapy as an additional method to process feelings and memories. Over her career she has worked with adults from many nationalities and across different life stages. She emphasises self-awareness, personal responsibility and developing emotional courage.

Clients are supported to identify small experiments that test new ways of relating to themselves and others. The aim is practical change rather than labels. Nels helps people build clearer boundaries, improve communication and recover from past hurts so they can make steadier choices in relationships and day-to-day life.

Online support

Nels uses several approaches that adapt well to online work. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so clients feel heard and clearer about their choices; this approach suits people wanting a supportive space to talk through worries. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at thought patterns and behaviour with practical exercises and experiments that can be done between sessions to reduce anxiety and low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy explores relational patterns and how early experiences shape current relationships, helping people improve connection and set healthier boundaries.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Nels will work together with clients to decide which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative step helps shape session pace, the mix of talking and exercises, and any creative options like writing therapy.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and shared worksheets, phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messages suit short check-ins or ongoing coaching-style support. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, travel and family life while keeping the focus on progress and usable tools.
