Background and approach

Elle also offers support around career questions, ADHD, and challenges linked to family and relationships. Elle works in a person-centred way, listening closely and shaping sessions around each individual's needs. She also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviours that can ease anxiety and improve mood.

The approach aims to be collaborative and down-to-earth rather than technical. Sessions are practical and often focus on making small, manageable changes. Elle helps people connect with their own strengths and build clearer ways to cope with difficult emotions such as shame, guilt, anger, or isolation.

She encourages attention to feelings and to the needs beneath them. Her style is calm and compassionate, with an emphasis on increasing self-trust and clarity. People who want a supportive space to talk things through and try straightforward strategies may find her approach helpful.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening with empathy and responding to what matters most to the person. It helps people feel understood and to reconnect with their own strengths and values, which can ease anxiety and build self-trust.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It encourages practical experiments and small behaviour changes that can reduce worry and lift mood over time.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Elle will collaborate with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences. That means trying things, checking how they feel, and adapting as needed rather than following a fixed plan.

Online therapy offers flexibility for different lifestyles and needs. Video calls let people use visual cues for a fuller conversation, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins and texting supports ongoing reflection between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or travel while keeping focus on practical steps to manage anxiety and stress.
