About Ellie

Ellie Byrne is a BACP-registered counsellor and psychotherapist based in the United Kingdom with five years' experience. She works with adults who are struggling with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, depression, life changes, relationship and family concerns, grief, parenting pressures, and anger. Sessions focus on practical ways to manage feelings and behaviour rather than labels or quick fixes.

She combines client-centred listening with cognitive behavioural ideas and existential thinking. That means she encourages people to set small, realistic goals, look at unhelpful thinking patterns, and reflect on values and meaning. Mindfulness and motivational interviewing tools also feature when they suit the person’s aims.

Ellie describes her style as person-centred. She prioritises what the client brings each session and adjusts her use of techniques to fit those priorities. People can expect clear, direct conversation about coping strategies and step-by-step planning for change.

Her background includes work supporting those affected by addiction, trauma, and major life transitions. This informs how she helps people manage anger, build daily routines, address sleep and eating issues, and cope with work-related stress.

Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time; costs vary with location. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session using the See online therapy options button. Ellie offers therapy in English and does not take international clients.

How sessions work

How Ellie uses CBT, client-centred work and mindfulness online

Ellie draws on client-centred practice to begin therapy by listening to what matters most to the person. This approach helps identify immediate priorities and the small steps a person wants to try. It suits someone who prefers to lead the agenda and have practical support that follows their pace.

Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) in her work focuses on spotting unhelpful thought patterns and testing small behavioural changes. It is useful for anger that ties to stress, anxiety, or sleep and eating problems because it breaks issues into manageable tasks. Mindfulness techniques are used to build moment-to-moment awareness and reduce impulsive reactions when emotions run high.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the joint process. She will discuss what feels most relevant, try methods in session, and adjust plans based on what works for the client’s goals and preferences. That collaboration helps people develop clear coping steps they can practise between sessions.

The biography does not specify session formats here, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so people can focus on progress rather than logistics. Registered or accredited professionals, including counsellors and therapists in the UK, commonly use these benefits to support steady, practical work on anger and related concerns.
