Background and approach

Parenting concerns and life changes are also areas she commonly helps with, including issues around pregnancy and childbirth. Eleanor pays attention to how relationships, communication and feelings of isolation shape everyday struggles. In sessions she uses client-centred ways of working to keep the person’s experience central.

Cognitive behavioural ideas are brought in to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try practical changes. She also draws on psychodynamic perspectives to look at repeated patterns and emotional history when that feels useful. Practical steps and small goals are typical in her work.

Conversations can include problem-solving, trying new ways of thinking, and reflecting on past influences. Eleanor aims to create a steady, encouraging rhythm to sessions so progress feels realistic. She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging.

Sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability.

How Eleanor’s approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the heart of conversations. The therapist listens without judgement, reflects what she hears, and helps the client steer sessions toward what they find most important. This approach suits people who want a supportive space to make sense of feelings.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small changes in behaviour. It uses practical exercises and steps to reduce anxious thinking and improve daily functioning, which can be helpful for stress and anxiety.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Eleanor discusses options with each person and adapts methods to fit their goals and preferences. She checks in regularly and tweaks the plan so it remains useful and manageable.

Online therapy offers flexibility in how sessions are delivered. Video calls allow face to face conversation, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging helps people reflect over time. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare and other commitments, while letting the therapist and client focus on practical steps and emotional understanding.
