My working days are Monday to Wednesday. I have some after work sessions available, up to 7pm

Life can be hard sometimes and struggling with things alone is the loneliest place. Counselling offers you the space to say things that you can’t to anyone else, and know that you won’t be judged.

My name is Elena and  when we sit down together my attention is fully and exclusively for you. This is something that we rarely experience, and is why people often struggle with feelings of not being heard or seen. I create the space for you to talk and explore your feelings; what may be going on underneath the feelings and how your life experiences have shaped you. Often we carry distorted messages about ourselves from our past, and the skill of the counsellor is in bringing these into awareness and helping you to discover what is holding you back from being the person you want to be.

I am an Integrative Counsellor and this means that I have trained in a carefully programmed combination of approaches, allowing me to offer you a very tailored experience of therapy. My main focus for therapy, is to enable you to find a way through whatever is troubling you, so that life is more manageable, the future more hopeful and maybe even your dreams become possible!

People come to therapy for many and varied reasons from a life changing situation or illness, stress at work or relationship struggles and more. But I also hear people who have struggled with their feelings wonder if their problems are 'worth bothering a counsellor with'. Please know that whatever you are trying to cope with, talking to someone can make a difference.

My practice is based in a bright, modern private space in my home. Situated in Pinhoe on the outskirts of Exeter, with ample parking and a 5 minute walk from the train station.  I provide both face to face and online sessions.

I am aware that picking up the phone or sending that first email or text may feel daunting, and I will try and make this as comfortable as possible. Once you have got in touch, we will arrange a suitable time have a telephone conversation before we start sessions, to get an idea of what you are looking for from therapy and answer any questions you may have.

The most important thing is that you are comfortable with your counsellor, and talking to me before we start session is part of that process

There is a little paperwork at the first session, but I aim to keep this as simple as possible, so that I can spend some time listening to you and understanding what has brought you to therapy. Sometimes it's not always easy to say in the first session, what you want from counselling, and that's ok. It may take a couple of sessions for you to settle into the work and begin to see the way ahead.

The approaches I use are from different areas of therapy; I often explore past experiences whilst at the same time looking at what is going on for you right now.

The beauty of integrating techniques is that what we do is tailored to you, the way you work and what you need. But, most importantly, at the heart of what I do is to provide a non-judgemental way of being with you that can help us to build a trusting relationship.
