About Elliot
Elliot Maguire offers a person-centred approach to therapy that keeps the client's perspective at the centre of every session. He focuses on helping people who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected from themselves. Elliot aims to make space for quiet reflection and steady progress so clients can feel more grounded and confident again.
He sees people for common problems such as anxiety, low self-esteem, stress, depression and anger. He also works with issues around relationships, intimacy, sleep, addictions and coping with life changes.
Background and approach
There is experience supporting LGBT concerns and people living with or managing attention difficulties such as ADHD. Elliot trained as a Person-Centred Psychotherapist and Hypnotherapist and holds NCPS. He has six years of professional experience working in the United Kingdom and with international clients.
His background means he is familiar with a wide range of emotional and behavioural difficulties. In sessions he aims for a warm and respectful tone. Conversations are paced to suit the person in front of him, and practical ideas are offered when they feel helpful.
The focus is on listening closely and helping people make sense of their patterns and choices. People often come to talk about grief, family or blended family issues, body image and commitment concerns. Elliot also supports people dealing with chronic pain, caregiver stress, dissociation and more complex personality or attachment-related difficulties.
He works collaboratively to set goals and keep progress realistic and manageable.

How Elliot works online
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Elliot will work collaboratively to choose methods that match a person's needs, goals and preferences. Together they will review what helps most and adjust the plan as therapy unfolds so the work stays relevant and manageable.
Please confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking, because the original biography does not list specific online or in-person options. 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 help people access a practitioner based in the United Kingdom while located elsewhere, and it supports continuing work through life changes without interrupting progress.
