Welcome
I'm Elsie, a Psychotherapist helping people who always put others first, feel more comfortable with prioritising themselves.
​
I'm here to meet you where you are with warmth, gentleness and lots of practical tools.
Finding your way back to yourself
The people I work with might describe themselves as 'people-pleasers' - the ones who naturally attune to others' needs, readily step in to help their friends and family, and who tend to overlook and dismiss their own feelings, wants and needs.
Living with people-pleasing patterns can leave us feeling drained and distant from ourselves; we might notice how hard it is to know or say what we want, to trust our feelings or express our opinions, or to imagine putting ourselves first.
It's common to feel like we've lost touch with who we really are, underneath who we are for all the people around us.
How I can support you:
For therapists:
I'm the co-founder of Thrive in Practice - a collaboration with fellow therapist Charlotte Braithwaite, where we mentor therapists to build successful, sustainable businesses. Mentoring is all about sharing insights, tools & learnings from our own thriving practices, to help you find your version of the same. Alongside this work, I also love mentoring therapists one-to-one.
