About Elaine

Before becoming a therapist, I spent over two decades working as a hairdresser, supporting people from many different backgrounds, ages, and life situations. Those years taught me the value of truly listening, being present, and meeting people with care, curiosity, and respect.

My decision to come to counselling — both personally and professionally — grew from a deep longing to understand myself and how I function in the world. I have always been passionate about people: their stories, their resilience, and the many ways they make sense of their experiences. Learning how humans feel, think, and relate has always fascinated me, and working collaboratively toward growth and clarity brings me genuine joy.

Today, I bring all of this into my therapeutic work. I aim to offer a grounded, compassionate, and non-judgmental space where you can explore your inner world, reconnect with your sense of meaning, and discover what feels authentic and true for you. I see you as the expert of your own life, and together we work at your pace, following what feels most relevant and alive in the moment.
