About Eleni

Eleni Ourani is a counsellor with nine years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with people who are feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, low mood, stress or relationship strain. Eleni also supports those coping with career pressures, identity and intimacy concerns, and challenges linked to attention or motivation.

Eleni uses an integrative approach that adapts to each person. She combines ideas from different therapies to match a person's needs and goals rather than relying on a single method.

Background and approach

Sessions focus on practical ways to respond to difficult thoughts and feelings in daily life. Her work draws on psychodynamic ideas about how past experience can shape current patterns. She also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to spot and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps in that direction. Eleni pays attention to compassion and kindness towards oneself, especially when shame or guilt are present. She offers a calm, respectful space where people can talk through what is happening without fear of judgement.

Many clients find this steady, understanding approach useful when facing life transitions or intense emotions. Practical matters such as communication problems, panic or phobias, body image and sexual or intimacy-related issues are within her focus. She also supports people dealing with loneliness, grief of relationship breakdown, and questions about life purpose and self-worth.

Approaches and how they work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and still act in line with what matters to them, such as relationships or work goals. It focuses on values and small, practical steps rather than removing all uncomfortable feelings. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers tools to change unhelpful patterns and reduce symptoms like panic or avoidance. Client-Centred Therapy emphasises listening and empathy, giving people space to make sense of their experiences and build self-trust.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Eleni will work together with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals and comfort. She tailors sessions as things change rather than sticking to one fixed plan.

Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues when helpful, while phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a verbal check-in is preferred. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins, real-time reflections or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and maintain continuity when travel or scheduling gets in the way.
