Hello! I’m Ellie
Professional Counsellor
Thank you for taking time to look at my page.
I am a professional counsellor and currently work for a children’s service with 11 years +, an adult service and independently.
I can offer you a safe, confidential, and welcoming environment where you can freely talk about, well, whatever you’d like really!
Sometimes contacting a counsellor can feel very daunting, but you are not alone.
I use an integrative approach to therapy; at the core I am Person Centred, adopting techniques from Gestalt and Psychodynamic theory, with some CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) techniques. My approach is adapted to best meet the emotional needs and presenting issues of the individual.
I have worked with a diverse range of clients, treating all with respect and acceptance.
