About Elle
Elle Fair is a counsellor who aims to build a trusting relationship where people can bring what matters to them. She explains herself simply and listens without judgement. Her work often focuses on stress, anxiety, relationships, low self-esteem and life changes.
Elle has four years of experience and holds BACP, which signifies registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She supports people dealing with depression, grief, trauma and abuse, and those navigating career or parenting strains.
Background and approach
She also works with people exploring ADHD-related challenges and coaching-style goals. Her sessions combine client-centred listening with practical Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) techniques. She helps clients notice patterns of thought and behaviour, and then tries small, manageable shifts to reduce distress.
The aim is to build new ways of coping that fit everyday life. Elle pays attention to difficult emotions like anger, shame and guilt. She helps people understand the needs behind those feelings and to express them more healthily.
She also supports people wanting greater self-acceptance, self-trust and authenticity. She offers one-to-one counselling rather than relationship or family sessions. People who come to her often want a compassionate companion while they work through past hurts, repair communication problems, or make changes in their life.
To start, clients complete a short questionnaire so sessions can be matched to their needs.

How Elle works online
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It helps people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try practical, manageable changes to reduce anxiety, depression or stress-related problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Elle will discuss goals and preferences and then suggest ways of working that match those aims. That decision is collaborative and can change as therapy progresses.
Because the biography does not list specific online or in-person formats, please confirm available session types before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also suit people who prefer not to be on camera or who need lower-bandwidth options. Registered or accredited professionals, including therapists who use client-centred and CBT approaches, can adapt tasks and exercises so they work well in remote sessions.
