About Elaine
Elaine Griffith is a Humanistic Integrative counsellor with seven years' experience. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and offers a calm, non-judgemental space for people who are struggling. Elaine focuses on helping people understand what is causing their distress and on practical steps to feel better.
She works closely with each person to identify parts of life they want to change. Together they set simple goals and agree a plan to reach them.
Background and approach
Elaine uses a range of approaches so the work reflects the needs of the individual rather than a single method. In sessions she listens for patterns in relationships, feelings and behaviour. She helps people make sense of anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, addictions and difficulties with intimacy or family relationships.
Practical tools may be used alongside deeper, reflective work to address roots of distress. Elaine also supports people coping with life changes, career questions, parenting strain, burnout and compassion fatigue. She pays attention to attachment, communication problems and issues such as guilt, shame or feeling empty.
The aim is steady progress rather than quick fixes. Her style is warm and straightforward. Clients can expect honesty, patience and encouragement to try new choices.
Elaine describes therapy as a journey she walks alongside the person seeking change.

How Elaine works online
Finding the right fit is part of the work. Elaine will discuss the approaches and decide together which methods suit the person's needs and goals. This is a collaborative process where techniques can be adapted as progress is made.
The practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions around busy days and reduced travel time. Some people find shorter check-ins or phone-style conversations easier when bandwidth or focus is limited. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking to ensure they match your routine and preferences.
