Counselling with Elaine

Counselling in Bristol & Online UK-Wide Support for anxiety, grief, emotional abuse, low self-worth, and pregnancy loss

Are you feeling overwhelmed, stuck in grief, or carrying the invisible scars of emotional abuse or childhood trauma?

Maybe you’re constantly overthinking, finding it hard to switch off, or running on autopilot—giving everything to others while feeling disconnected from yourself. Life events like pregnancy loss, a breakup, or the slow drip of daily anxiety can leave you emotionally exhausted and unsure where to turn.

You don’t have to face it alone.

I’m Elaine—a qualified, person-centred counsellor based in Chipping Sodbury and Filton, Bristol. I offer warm, trauma-informed counselling both in-person and online across the UK.

My approach is rooted in empathy, presence, and deep respect for your pace and your story. Whether you’re navigating grief, recovering from emotional abuse, rebuilding self-worth, or simply longing to feel more like you again—I’m here to support you.

This is your space to breathe, reflect, and heal.

What to Expect from Counselling

I provide a warm, non-judgmental space where you can safely explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. Together, we’ll uncover underlying issues and work towards greater self-acceptance, healing, and inner growth.

At the heart of person-centred counselling is the therapeutic relationship. I believe that a trusting, supportive bond allows you to speak freely, knowing you’re heard, accepted, and valued just as you are. My approach is non-directive — meaning I won’t tell you what to do, but will walk alongside you as you find your own way toward change. You are the expert in your life, and I’m here to support you in reconnecting with that inner wisdom.

In our sessions, we may explore: • Unhelpful coping mechanisms • Patterns and behaviours you’d like to change • Relationship dynamics • Self-beliefs and emotional challenges • Your experiences of trauma, loss, or transition Through this process, many clients experience an increase in self-esteem, confidence, and emotional resilience.
