About Elinor Taylor
Elinor Taylor is an integrative therapeutic counsellor who adapts her practice to meet each client’s individual needs, drawing on person-centered, psychodynamic, and humanistic principles. She prioritizes the client’s agenda and works collaboratively to explore the issues that matter most, offering a steady, empathic presence throughout the therapeutic process.
Her work often incorporates mindfulness exercises when helpful, acknowledging how the body can hold and reveal feelings that are not yet fully conscious. This somatic awareness is used alongside talk-based approaches to deepen understanding and support emotional regulation.
Elinor has a particular focus on relationship and couples work, including intimacy and sexuality concerns, while also supporting people with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, eating difficulties, sleep problems, addictions, self-esteem challenges, loneliness, grief, and other life transitions. She brings clinical flexibility to complex presentations and tailors interventions to the client’s priorities and strengths.
Based in the United Kingdom, Elinor holds BACP membership - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and brings four years of professional experience to her practice. She aims to create a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where clients can feel supported as they work toward meaningful change.

Approaches That Guide Online Therapy
Elinor offers a blend of client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and emotionally-focused therapy (EFT) adapted for online work. Client-centered therapy emphasizes a warm, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship and supports clients to explore their priorities at their own pace - it is helpful for building self-understanding and addressing issues like low self-esteem and life transitions.CBT focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and can be useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and sleep difficulties by offering practical skills and structured interventions. EFT concentrates on emotions and attachment patterns in relationships - it can be particularly effective for couples and intimacy-related concerns by helping partners express needs and reconnect.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Elinor works collaboratively to choose methods that fit a client’s goals, needs, and preferences. She adapts techniques over time based on what is most helpful for the person she is working with.
Online therapy with Elinor is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, giving flexibility to fit therapy around daily life. These options support continuity of care for people with busy schedules, mobility limits, or those who prefer remote support, while still allowing registered professionals and therapists to build a strong working relationship and deliver focused therapeutic work.
