About me
A warm hello and thank you for visiting my profile. I am Ellie, a qualified art psychotherapist. This means that other than talking, we could also look at creative ways for you to express yourself, as we may sometimes struggle to express ourselves with words, or it may be too overwhelming to do so. Allowing oneself to be vulnerable is difficult, so I truly commend you for making a first step in seeking support. We will work together to develop a therapeutic relationship and explore your challenges at your pace. A lot of my work is rooted in physical/emotional/psychological/childhood trauma, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, personal/work related stress and neurodiversity. I use a wide variety of evidence-based approaches including psychodynamic, interpersonal, psycho-education and solution-focused therapy, and practice integratively for each client's unique needs. I have extensive experience in working with clients of different ethnicities, cultures and faiths.
I would love to offer you a confidential, non-judgmental, supportive and a genuinely empathic therapy space where you would feel safe, trust and be yourself. With no obligation, I offer a free 30 min telephone/video consultation to discuss your needs. I offer in-person and online therapy. I am open to looking at session costs with you if you are a student, on low income, work part-time or if finances are difficult. I am committed to improving clients welfare.
Thank you

I believe it is very important that clients get a sense of their prospective therapist before confirming to go ahead with therapy - one must feel comfortable with their therapist. I offer a free 30 minute online session for our initial meeting so that we can get to know each other a little bit better and for you to decide if you would like to go ahead with therapy with me.
