Elle Fair

Elle Fair understands how overwhelming life can feel and aims to create a trusting therapeutic relationship where clients feel able to bring the things that matter to them.

She works with issues that are occurring now as well as past experiences that continue to affect a person, supports people navigating significant changes or challenges, and helps those who want to open up new possibilities or find greater wellbeing and fulfilment.

Recognising that each person is different, Elle looks to find ways of working together that are both helpful and empowering. She believes that, somewhere within each of us, there are resources and wisdom to meet what life brings, and that having a compassionate person alongside can make it easier to access those parts of ourselves.

Elle supports exploration of the things that matter to a client and may encourage attention to what is felt in the moment, as this can help people discover greater stability, freedom, power and choice.

She works with a wide range of needs and has particular interests in supporting people to grow self-connection, self-acceptance, self-trust, self-care, freedom, empowerment and authenticity; helping people to liberate themselves from life stories that no longer serve them; addressing the relationship people have with experiences they associate with shame and have felt they needed to hide; and working with harder-to-accept feelings such as anger, fury, rage, resentment and disgust by identifying the needs behind those emotional responses and finding healthy ways to manage and express them. Elle also supports relationships of all kinds, including the conflicts and challenges that arise within them, and offers this work within one-to-one rather than relationship counselling.
