About Elia

Elia Duncan offers straightforward support for people facing stress, anxiety, low confidence and big life changes. He greets each person with warmth and a calm presence. He aims to help people name what matters to them and find practical steps forward.

Elia has eight years practising as a psychotherapist in the UK. He has worked with people from a range of cultural backgrounds and sexualities and draws on that experience in conversations about identity and belonging.

Background and approach

He often helps people who are dealing with grief, relationship pain, break-up and divorce, and those managing symptoms of depression or ADHD challenges. Sessions focus on helping people clarify values and set personal boundaries. Elia combines talking about past experiences with simple, practical exercises to change unhelpful thinking and behaviour.

He will help you notice patterns that keep you stuck and try new ways of responding that fit your life. He also works with concerns around parenting, fatherhood issues, blended family dynamics and communication problems. Other areas he addresses include career pressure, compassion fatigue, anger and intimacy-related worries.

Elia pays attention to how social and cultural factors shape people’s sense of self. Many clients appreciate a collaborative, person-focused approach. Elia aims to make sessions feel like a steady conversation where you set the pace.

If you want help sorting feelings, deciding next steps, or building day-to-day coping skills he can support that process.

How Elia uses talking therapies online

Client-Centred Therapy is about creating a respectful space where a person leads the conversation and the therapist reflects and supports. It helps when someone wants to explore values, identity or emotional recovery at their own pace.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses practical exercises and simple tools to change unhelpful thought patterns and build new habits for anxiety, low mood and stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Elia will discuss your needs and preferences and help decide which methods to try. That choice is a joint one and can change as you progress.

Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversations and body language; phone calls suit quieter audio-only check-ins or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging can be useful for brief check-ins, flexible scheduling and ongoing notes between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments, while keeping care consistent across locations.
