About Elaine
Elaine Fyffe is a humanistic person-centred counsellor with 14 years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction and grief. Elaine emphasises each person's strengths and supports them to take the first steps towards change.
Her practice is grounded in person-centred values that put the client’s experience at the heart of sessions. She listens without judgement and helps people make sense of difficult feelings. This practical, straightforward approach aims to help people feel heard and clearer about next steps.
Elaine has supported people through parenting challenges and bereavement, and she has worked with those affected by workplace pressures. She also addresses issues such as attachment, body image, codependency and communication problems. Her work includes helping people manage guilt, shame and isolation, and exploring life purpose and self-love.
Clients bring a mix of immediate problems and longer-term concerns. Elaine offers steady, empathetic support while encouraging small, achievable changes. She helps people build on their own resources rather than telling them what to do.
Sessions are offered in English and Elaine practises in the United Kingdom. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.

Person-centred care and practical online support
Elaine’s work follows a humanistic person-centred approach, which focuses on listening and building a trusting relationship. This approach helps when people feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression or loss, by giving space to explore feelings and find personal solutions.Alongside that, she uses evidence-based techniques that emphasise understanding emotions and strengthening coping skills. These methods can help with managing cravings or difficult thoughts in addiction, and with practical strategies for workplace stress or seasonal low mood.
Finding the right way of working is part of therapy. Elaine will collaborate with each person to choose approaches that fit their goals and day-to-day life. The process is exploratory and adjusted as needs change so people can notice what helps most.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work, family and treatment commitments by removing travel time and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people choose meetings that suit quieter times of day or those who prefer not to attend in person.
