Elaine has been great during our sessions over the last few months. She listened carefully to my situation and prompted me as appropriate to reflect on where my challenges resided. Elaine then offered helpful steps to get me back on track and thankfully I’m feeling a lot better now.

Elaine’s approach to supporting me has helped make me feel at ease & comfortable very quickly. I get so much from these sessions & am finding them so valued tackling a couple of issues both at work and personally. I’m really glad I was matched with her.
More about Elaine
- 7 years' experience
- Female
- BACP
I am licensed in the UK with 7 years of professional work experience. I am a person centred therapist who trained at LCANDCTA. I hold an array of CPD qualifications including level 4 in substance misuse and women in danger of domestic violence abuse and prevention. I co-authored research on addiction highlighting problem gambling- which was presented at the BACP's national research conference 2016 and received some acclaim .
I have been in private practice since September 2017.
I offer a safe and confidential space where you can speak of your issues, without feeling judged and be assured that you don't need to face them alone. Person Centred Therapy is client led, this means I work in a non directive way, the client has total control of what they bring to each session. I do not give advice, but at times I may offer suggestions.
I work via the platform either by phone sessions or video session. I do not give homework to clients as it's not part of the module I trained. Talking therapy can be a very effective way for a client to gain a greater understanding of themselves and manage difficult times.
People come to therapy for a variety of reasons each unique to that individual. I offer short term or long term therapy depending on your needs. I work collaboratively with clients and believe the relationship between the client and the therapist makes a difference in enabling the client to be released from their troubles and to have a sense of freedom.
Elaine.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.

- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Working with Elaine has been fantastic. She a great listener and will provide constructive questioning throughout the sessions. She’s super attentive and really allows you to speak uninterrupted. Personally I find it really difficult to tell loved ones some of the things I’m struggling with but speaking to Elaine has been easy and really allowed me to verbalise and contextualise these areas. Thank you Elaine.
