More about Elaine

  • BACP

Hi to you and thank you if you are taking the time to look through my profile. My name is Elaine, I am a licensed therapist in the UK with over 9 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients of any age and from various backgrounds, all of whom share the same thing, they are struggling and hope for change. I work with individuals and with couples, I also offer Clinical Supervision as part of my practice. I have helped clients in many ways, such as finding coping mechanisms to help deal with stress and anxiety, help overcoming relationship issues, fears and worries, help healing from trauma and abuse, motivation, self esteem, and confidence difficulties, and even wanting to just make sense of their world. I work alongside my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey. Please feel free to message me with any query you may have, or simply just take a look at my schedule and book yourself straight in. I will aim to respond to you within the same day. Thank you once again and I look forward to speaking with you soon.

About online counseling

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Reviewed June 2023

I talk with Elaine via zoom, and it always pleases me to see her calm and attentive face when we sign on, to laugh together when the humor clicks, and to see how she has reflected on, acknowledged and repositioned perspectives from earlier contexts and coversations. She listens and really hears me. She's very good at what she does.

Reviewed March 2023

Using betterhelp was my first time trying out therapy and Elaine was more than comforting and reassuring and with little effort, i was able to open up and speak about so many insecurities and we always work with small exercises to help me with people around me to better express myself. 100% recommend this experience
