About me and my therapy practice

Welcome, I’m Elena UK qualified an integrative counsellor, working online throughout the UK and Ireland.

My speciality is working with a high functioning anxiety, ADHD, OCD, menopause impact, emotional distress, work issues, perfectionism, all- or nothing thinking, lack of confidence and self-esteem with overriding inner critic -not good enough, relationship issues, people pleasing and struggle maintain healthy boundaries.

Anxiety is a feeling of unease, such as worry or fear. Everyone has experienced a feelings of anxiety at some point because it's a natural human response when we feel that we are under threat. It can be experienced through our thoughts, feelings and physical sensations and affect our lives on a daily basis due to the impact of a strong inner critic or guilt as a result of difficult issues may stem from childhood abuse, neglect or bullying, or negative experiences which prevent you to from living a more meaningful life.

I firmly believe that every person is beautifully unique and special, and has inner potential to reach their goals and be whatever they feel to be right, at their own pace.

As a counsellor, my goal is to ensure that I provide a confidential, safe space, where you can feel heard and understood by me, in a non-judgemental and respectful way.

Practice description

I draw on a variety of approaches to provide the best experience for each individual client with a person-centred approach as foundation of my work because you know the best and me focusing on what would it be like to understand your anxiety?

I introduce some approaches what would help to understand how past experience impacting your present time, and will enhanced your understanding and build a positive relationship with self and others, identifying the root causing of your anxiety and enable to reduce its power by reconnecting your mind with your thoughts, feelings and your physical response to those feelings so you can become a more wholesome you that you can live your life with it rather than be governed by- all these approaches only would be introduced in appropriate time following your pace to maintain ethics and safe space.

My previous professional journey, and life experiences, have focussed on support of the person, and their well-being. I have years of experience as a music teacher with young children. I believe that nourishing support, at an early age, is essential for healthy development, to become content in adulthood. Lack of love and care could hold a person back and cause them to develop low self-confidence, low self -esteem, depression, social phobia, continuous guilt, and engage in abusive relationships. I have 13 years of experience in complex personal care within a person’s own home setting, which has required a special approach. It involved a need of understanding of mental health, and working with great awareness of family dynamic, where a family member was caring for a loved one, quite often applying as the need to stay strong by suppressing own feelings and neglecting own mental health.

I ran a beauty therapy business for 6 years, my clients encouraged me to become a counsellor, as they found me being understanding, non-judgemental, and it helped them to see a clear way out of their anxiety, distorted thinking.
