Hello, i'm Eleanor.

A therapeutic relationship that is genuine, warm, and accepting can help to guide you toward self-understanding and self-acceptance. It can support you to make long-term positive changes and help you to navigate life's challenges with greater resilience and clarity. Scroll down to read some of my client's testimonials.

Experience

I have experience in a range of supporting, caring and advising roles, working with different groups of people in a variety of settings. This includes within charities, the Council, education settings and residential homes. These experiences have helped to form some of my core values, which include: equality, empathy and purpose.

As a Therapist, some of the challenges that I have worked with are:

• Persistent low mood, depression, anxiety

• Neurodiversity - exploring identity; burnout; bullying; disability discrimination; requesting adjustments in the workplace, navigating the complex special educational needs and disability (SEND) education system.

• Relationship difficulties

• Parenting challenges

• Infertility

• Gender identity and sexuality

• Disordered eating

• Addiction

• Loss and complicated grief

• Long-term health conditions

• Imposter syndrome and self-doubt

• Financial stress and debt

• Trauma

• Self-harm and suicidal thoughts.
