Hi, nice to meet you

I'm so glad you're here.

I know that reaching out for support can be the scariest first step, so I want to thank you for making it.

Please take a browse around my site to see what's on offer and how I could best start to support you.

Looking forward to connecting,

Ellie 🧡

As a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) myself, I deeply empathise with being a sensitive soul who thinks a lot, needs time to process & worries about what other people think.

My love for this profession is lifelong as it encourages me to grow, reflect and develop.

While person-centred at heart, my approach has become integrative as I have acquired different tools to work with each person individually. What works for one might not for another.

I have learned over the years that being a therapist is not just a job, it is a commitment to a way of life: to reflect, to learn, to look inwards and keep evolving.

It would be a pleasure to accompany you on the journey.

"That was years ago, why are you bringing it up now?"

For some of us, the idea of saying something in the moment triggers a freeze response.

This can be due to frequencies of emotional processing, neurodivergence and trauma.

Maybe we take time to regulate before we respond.

Or we learned in childhood that our authentic responses would be met with reprimands.

Either way, it's totally okay if you need some time to calm down before you respond.

In therapy, we'll help you normalise this and feel less shameful about needing to approach things at a later date.

As well as building your inner self trust that your natural reactions are okay. 🩷

Whether it was a month, three days, a few hours or fifteen years ago:

this is your permission to retrospectively communicate your feelings.

Some of us take time longer to process things and to be able to speak from a place of regulation.

Having been reprimanded for being disregulated in childhood, it can feel very unsafe to ever show the world the angry / bossy / annoyed / sad parts of us as it triggers a fear of abandonment or being branded as bad.

You're not a bad person for having big feelings, you just never got to learn to deal with them in safety.

It's not too late.

It was me this whole time??? Acting like I didn't mind when inside I was raging?

Damnit.

(Come to therapy and unlearn keeping yourself quiet.)

I know it's hard.

You feel put on the spot, the conditioned social pressure to be a "yes" person so that everyone likes you.

So that they don't think you don't care about them.

You can care about someone and say "no" at the same time.

Real relationships are about mutual understanding, give and take, authenticity.

It's the hardest thing to watch someone you love be disappointed by your words.

So we override our own feelings, minimise our needs and manage other people’s emotions.

But it's even harder to deal with the isolation that doing that brings.

Let me know when you're ready to work through it 🩷
