About Edlaine
Her practice focuses on a straightforward, compassionate style. Edlaine works collaboratively, listening carefully and helping clients name what matters most. She uses gentle questioning and practical steps so people can start to feel steadier between sessions.
Edlaine draws on Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). Client-Centred Therapy means the conversation follows the person's priorities and values. CBT brings simple tools to spot unhelpful thinking and try new ways of coping.
She is a BACP member, which is shown as BACP in her credentials. Her work over the past decade has included supporting people with trauma, intimacy and attachment issues, infertility and fertility worries, and complex family concerns. That experience informs how she tailors sessions for each person.
People who choose Edlaine often want a calm, practical space to talk. She aims to help clients build clearer goals, stronger self-understanding and everyday strategies to manage symptoms. Booking begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling arranged around therapist availability.
How client-centred care and CBT adapt to online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on following the client's lead, offering a warm and non-judgemental space to talk. In practice this means the counsellor mirrors what matters most to the person and helps them find their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, adds clear, practical tools to spot unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviours that can reduce anxiety or low mood.Deciding which approach to use is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful. That collaborative planning helps shape each session and any homework or practical exercises that follow.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also help people access a therapist who speaks English or Portuguese without relocating. The focus is on making sessions workable for everyday life while choosing approaches that suit the client's needs.
