About Elaine

Elaine Fyffe is a humanistic person centred counsellor with 14 years of professional experience. She focuses on helping people through stress, anxiety, addictions, grief and parenting concerns. Elaine also supports people living with depression and related struggles.

She works from the view that each person knows their own story best. Sessions aim to create a space where clients can talk honestly and be heard without judgement. Elaine encourages people to notice their strengths and use them when making changes.

Background and approach

Her approach is warm and respectful. Conversations are paced to suit the client and to build trust. Elaine helps people break down problems into manageable steps and explore choices that feel right to them.

Over more than a decade she has supported people facing loss, workplace pressure and relationship stresses. She also addresses issues such as body image, guilt and shame, isolation, and life purpose. Practical coping strategies and steady emotional support sit alongside deeper reflection.

Elaine accepts that change takes time and she works at a steady, realistic pace. She can help with concerns connected to attachment, codependency, communication problems and post-traumatic stress. People often come to focus on self-love, forgiveness and finding a clearer direction in life.

Focus areas and approaches

Everything Elaine lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

Evidence-informed approaches for online counselling

Elaine uses humanistic and person centred ways of working that focus on listening, understanding and helping people find their own solutions. This approach helps when someone needs emotional support, is coping with grief or wants to improve self-worth and relationships.

She also draws on general evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help build practical coping skills for anxiety, stress and low mood. These techniques involve noticing unhelpful patterns, trying new responses and building simple daily routines to reduce overwhelm.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Elaine discusses goals and preferences with each person and adjusts methods so they fit. This is a collaborative process where the therapist and client decide together which techniques to try and when to change direction.

Online therapy can be flexible and practical. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that feels helpful. Phone sessions suit people who prefer not to use video or need a shorter check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging give an option for steady support between sessions or when writing helps to organise thoughts. These formats make it easier to fit counselling around work, caregiving and busy schedules.
