About Elaine
Elaine Robb is a person centred counsellor with three years' experience helping people find a way forward when life feels stuck. She works from the United Kingdom and supports people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression and major life changes. Elaine also helps people facing trauma, abuse and relationship difficulties, including issues linked to family life and communication.
Elaine creates a calm space where clients can talk without feeling judged. She understands that starting therapy can feel daunting and allows people to move at their own pace. Sessions focus on what each person brings, rather than forcing a set agenda.
Her background includes work with people affected by workplace bullying, domestic violence and the impacts of crime. She uses a straightforward, respectful approach to help people sort through painful memories and steady their reactions. Elaine pays attention to feelings such as anger, emptiness and shame alongside practical concerns like career stress and relationship breakdown.
Elaine lists Client-Centred Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy among her approaches. In practice this means she listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps clients make sense of difficult experiences. She aims to support clearer decision-making and greater self-understanding.
She holds the NCPS credential and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Sessions are conducted in English and are arranged according to each person’s needs and schedule.
How Elaine’s approaches translate to online support
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding. The counsellor offers empathic reflection and follows the client's pace, which helps when someone needs to process emotions or explore decisions. Trauma-Focused Therapy aims to help people make sense of difficult events and reduce their impact on daily life, often by looking at memories and responses in a steady, contained way.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Elaine will discuss goals and preferences with each person and suggest which methods might help most. That collaborative conversation helps shape sessions so they match what the client needs and how they prefer to work.
Practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions into a busy day and reduced travel time. Some people find shorter check-ins or phone conversations useful when a full session is hard to schedule, while others prefer longer conversations. The exact session formats available should be confirmed before booking, and Elaine will organise sessions around each client's schedule and needs.
