About Ellie
Ellie Woodward is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has three years of professional experience. She works with stress, anxiety, grief, self-esteem, depression and coping with life changes. Ellie also focuses on guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, life purpose, self-love and social anxiety and phobia.
Ellie believes people know important parts of their story and brings a straightforward, respectful style to sessions. She listens for strengths and practical steps clients can try between meetings. Conversations centre on what is happening now and what small changes might help someone feel steadier day to day.
Sessions cover both short-term worries and longer standing concerns. Ellie supports people who are facing loss, shifts in motivation, low mood or social fears that make meeting new people hard. She encourages noticing patterns, trying manageable experiments in social situations and building clearer goals for change.
Her way of working is collaborative and goal-oriented. Practical tools are offered alongside space to talk through feelings about life changes and identity. Ellie invites clients to set the pace and focus for each meeting so progress feels realistic and achievable.
Ellie offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To start, clients use the See online therapy options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.
Approaches used and how online sessions work
Ellie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear goals and practical steps. One common approach is problem-focused work that helps identify unhelpful patterns and tries small experiments to change them; this can help with social anxiety and daily stress. Another is emotional processing that supports people through grief and low mood by gradually talking through painful experiences and noticing shifts in feelings.Deciding which approach to use is part of the early sessions. Ellie works collaboratively with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals and preferences. That means checking what helps, adjusting the plan, and reviewing progress together rather than prescribing a single route from the start.
The profile does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm the available options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into work or family life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Others prefer a longer, camera-based meeting for deeper conversation. Ellie aims to match format and pace to practical needs so therapy can fit into everyday life.
