About Elliot
Elliot Maguire is a counsellor who uses a person-centred approach to help people feeling overwhelmed or stuck. He offers a calm, steady presence to help clients slow down, make sense of their feelings, and build confidence again. Elliot works with people experiencing anxiety, low self-esteem, anger, relationship strains, motivation problems and depression.
He brings six years of professional experience and holds NCPS as a credential. Elliot combines person-centred care with cognitive behavioural techniques and other approaches to match what each person needs.
Background and approach
Sessions are practical and conversational rather than full of jargon. In practice, sessions focus on understanding what matters to the client now. Elliot listens for patterns in thinking, feeling and behaviour, and helps people test small changes.
He also uses methods drawn from attachment-focused work and hypnotherapy when helpful and agreed with the client. Elliot supports people with a wide range of concerns including stress, addictions, grief, intimacy-related issues, sleeping problems and coping with life changes. He also works with specific topics such as body image, communication problems, and aspects of alternative sexual culture like BDSM and kink.
Sessions can take different forms to suit busy lives. Elliot aims to work collaboratively so clients leave with clearer next steps and simple strategies to try between meetings.

Online support
Client-centred therapy places the person at the heart of the work. The counsellor listens without judgement, reflects what they hear, and helps the client find their own solutions for issues like low self-esteem, motivation or relationship worries.
Cognitive behavioural techniques look at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. Together the therapist and client identify unhelpful thinking patterns and test small behavioural changes to improve mood and daily functioning.
Choosing the right approach happens together. Elliot will discuss different methods and help decide which fits the client’s goals and preferences. That collaborative process can change over time as needs evolve.
Online work uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different routines. Video is useful for fuller conversations and non-verbal cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging suit short reflections, ongoing support or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, travel or caregiving commitments.
