About Elaine
Elaine Fyffe is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with 14 years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, grief and loss, parenting concerns, and depression. Elaine uses a humanistic person-centred approach and treats clients as the experts on their own lives.
Her sessions focus on listening and helping people make sense of what they are facing. She aims to help people notice their strengths, consider options and take manageable steps forward. Conversations are practical and straightforward, not full of jargon.
Elaine has spent over a decade supporting people who feel stuck by old patterns, including attachment issues, codependency and communication problems. She also works with people dealing with body image, guilt and shame, isolation, and questions about life purpose. Work with someone facing cancer, seasonal mood changes or workplace stress is described as possible in her background.
Her person-centred style means sessions are shaped around what each person says matters. That might include exploring past relationships, practising setting boundaries, or finding clearer ways to express needs. Sessions can also look at managing cravings, processing loss, or coping with daily anxiety.
People who come to Elaine can expect steady, down-to-earth conversation that focuses on what they want to change. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Payment uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.
How sessions work
How Elaine uses talking therapies online
Elaine works from a humanistic person-centred perspective. Person-centred work means the counsellor listens closely and follows what the client says is most important. This approach helps people who want clearer boundaries, struggle with people-pleasing, or feel lost after loss. It focuses on the client’s values and choices rather than giving direct instructions.She also draws on evidence-based techniques to support emotional regulation and coping. These practical strategies teach ways to manage anxiety, notice unhelpful patterns, and handle urges related to addictions. They are useful for everyday stress, low mood and seasonal changes.
Choosing an approach is collaborative. Elaine will discuss different ways of working and help identify what fits the client’s needs and preferences. Together they decide whether to concentrate on managing symptoms, exploring relationships, or developing new coping skills.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm which online options are offered before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or avoid travelling to appointments. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists commonly offer these practical benefits while working with people to reach their goals.
