Elli Rhodes

Hello, I’m Elli, a psychotherapeutic counsellor, specialising in work with children and young people. There are many reasons that someone may decide to work with me, including bereavement, difficulties at school, family separation, relationships and all sorts of other things. Life can be complicated and I offer a safe space to explore your experiences. 

As an integrative practitioner, I combine methods from different branches of counselling and psychotherapy, so I can tailor sessions to meet your unique needs and goals. I offer creative materials and opportunities to play out feelings and situations, as well as talking and listening. 

In our first session I will gather some information about what has brought you to the room and what you hope to get from counselling. We will decide how we can work together and make sure it is right for both of us. The first session can be the trickiest and it generally feels easier once we have met each other.

I am a BACP member - you can find me on their therapist register, number 397778 - and I work within their ethical framework. I hold an Enhanced DBS check which is on the Update service. My qualifications include a Diploma in Psychotherapeutic Counselling and an MSc in Psychology.
