"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous,
talented, and fabulous?
Actually, who are you not to be? "
Marianne Williamson
What my clients have said
My teenage daughter received around 10 weeks counselling from Eleanor. From the outset, we found her warm, approachable and professional. As a parent, I found she really took time to understand my daughter's needs, and the fact that she came to the house was invaluable in helping my daughter feel relaxed and safe. My daughter really liked how objective Eleanor was, and says she felt that she supported her to reach decisions herself rather than imposing her own opinion. She liked the way Eleanor challenged and questioned negative thoughts, supporting her to think outside her comfort zone. She also found her easy to trust, since their conversations always remained confidential, and she didn't worry that Eleanor would tell me what they had discussed unless she needed to! Having a friendly, impartial adult to talk to made a huge difference to her and has had a big impact on how well she eventually coped during Lockdown- the strategies explored have enabled her to feel less anxious and try new things. She also feels she now has a clearer idea of her sense of self and is beginning to make plans for the future- all things she was struggling with before. I see a big change in my daughter and knowing we can go back to Eleanor at any time is very reassuring. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her. Thank you Eleanor!
I went to see Eleanor for a number of sessions during a particularly challenging period in my life. I found the experience confronting but very rewarding and insightful. I felt listened to and supported throughout the process and learned to question a lot of assumptions about myself and my behaviours.
I would highly recommend Eleanor’s services to anyone who has issues that may be affecting them negatively. Sam
Eleanor offered counseling to me at one of the lowest points in my entire life, and after a year of sessions with her, I'm arguably the best me I've ever been. Potential patients will be hard-pressed to find a more empathetic counselor who listens to what you have to say and provides you with the insight that will allow you to grow in the direction that is best for you. Though I no longer need regular sessions, I will be a lifelong customer of Eleanor as the need arises, and I will be quick to recommend her to anyone in need of counseling in any way, shape, or form.

Eleanor is an amazing and very effective counsellor, and has bags of experience and training to draw on which has been enormously valuable to me. Eleanor is an excellent listener and has an uncanny ability to spot the real issues regardless of the narrative, and any attempts to steer away from the “nitty gritty”. I would highly recommend Eleanor to anyone who is struggling with sensitive or personal or relationship issues.
