Eleanor DillonNCPS

Eleanor Dillon is a counsellor who offers a calm, non-judgemental space for people to talk about what matters to them. She holds NCPS and has three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. Eleanor aims to make it easier to say the hard things and to take the first steps towards change.

She uses a blend of approaches to help with day-to-day struggles such as stress and anxiety. Eleanor also supports people dealing with low mood, self-esteem concerns, and the practical challenges of parenting. Pregnancy and childbirth appear among her focus areas and may be discussed alongside related worries and life changes.

In sessions she listens closely and reflects what she hears so people can understand their own thoughts and feelings more clearly. Eleanor draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to spot patterns of thinking that keep problems going and to try out small, practical changes. She also uses psychodynamic thinking to look at longer-standing feelings and where they might come from.

The work tends to be collaborative. Eleanor helps people set goals, try new coping strategies, and review what does and does not help. She encourages gentle, achievable steps rather than sudden overhaul.

People meet with her to address issues such as communication problems, guilt and shame, loneliness, finding life purpose, and women's concerns. Sessions are offered in English and take place in the United Kingdom.

How Eleanor's approaches translate to online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting. The counsellor follows the person's lead and provides empathy and understanding to help them explore feelings and choices. This approach is useful for building trust and for discussing matters like parenting concerns or pregnancy-related worries.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours link together. It uses practical exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and to develop new coping strategies, which can help with stress, anxiety and low mood.

Finding the right way of working is part of the process. Eleanor will talk with each person about goals, preferences and what feels helpful. Together they decide whether to emphasise listening, practical CBT tasks, or exploring deeper patterns from the past.

Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into everyday life. It may help people keep appointments around childcare or work, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Specific session formats are not listed here, so confirm current options before booking. The focus is on making sessions practical and workable so therapy can be sustained alongside daily responsibilities.
