Elle Fair, BACP

Elle Fair is a counsellor who helps people when life feels overwhelming. She aims to build a trusting relationship so clients can bring what matters to them. Elle works with present or past issues that affect daily life, and with people facing big changes or wanting greater fulfilment. She uses a compassionate, person-centred stance to support practical steps forward.

Elle practises Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, choosing methods to suit each person. She looks for ways of working that feel empowering and manageable for the individual. Conversations focus on what the person feels and thinks, and on small changes that can make day-to-day life easier.

Her areas of interest include stress, anxiety, depression and self-esteem concerns. She also supports people with relationship strains, grief, career questions and ADHD-related challenges. Additional topics she often works with include attachment and abandonment issues, blended family concerns, body image, and caregiver stress.

Elle pays attention to difficult emotions that people may want to hide, such as shame, anger or resentment. She helps clients understand the needs behind those emotions and find healthier ways to express them. The aim is to help people gain more stability, freedom, choice and self-trust.

She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and practises in the United Kingdom. Elle accepts international clients and holds four years of professional experience.

How Elle uses talking therapies online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person and their experience. The therapist listens without judgement and follows what the client brings. This approach helps people feel heard and can build self-connection, self-acceptance and self-trust.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and habits. It uses practical exercises and small behavioural changes to reduce symptoms of anxiety, low mood and stress. CBT can be useful for problem-solving and building coping skills.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Elle will collaborate with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences. Together they review what feels helpful and adjust the approach over time so sessions remain practical and relevant.

Confirm the exact session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, cut travel time and allow quicker check-ins between appointments. It can also let someone choose a shorter call or an audio-only conversation when that fits their day better. Registered or accredited professionals can use online sessions to focus on mood, stress, relationships and practical coping strategies without requiring attendance in person.
