About Elliot
Elliot Maguire is a counsellor who focuses on helping people feel steadier and more confident. He works with worries such as anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, anger and struggles with motivation. Elliot offers a calm space where someone can slow down, make sense of things and begin to feel more grounded again.
He practises person-centred counselling and draws on several approaches, including cognitive behavioural work, attachment-based ideas, EMDR and hypnotherapy. That mix allows him to try different ways of approaching a problem, depending on what the person says is most useful.
Background and approach
Sessions are conversational and tailored to each person’s needs. Over six years of practice in the United Kingdom has given him experience supporting people with relationship concerns, intimacy-related issues, grieving, sleep problems and addiction-related worries. He also works with challenges linked to ADHD, body image, caregiver stress and the impacts of chronic illness.
Elliot is listed with NCPS, which appears with his credentials. He offers sessions in English and is available to work with international clients by online formats. His style is warm, non-judgemental and respectful, focused on understanding each person’s story before choosing techniques.
When people start with him they can expect practical conversations, gentle exploration of past and present patterns, and tools to try between sessions. Elliot aims to help people notice small changes that build steadier coping and clearer choices over time.

Online support
How his approaches translate to online therapy
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current feelings and reactions. Online this often means talking through patterns in close relationships and practising new ways of responding that help reduce anxiety and improve connection. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments or behaviour changes between sessions. This can be done via video or messaging and gives clear steps to try between meetings. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, is used to help process distressing memories and reduce their hold on daily life; elements of EMDR can be adapted for remote work depending on the person's needs and comfort.Elliot treats finding the right approach as a shared task. He will listen to what feels most important, suggest options and together agree which methods to try. That collaborative planning helps shape sessions that match the person's goals and pace.
Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls enable face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and suit shorter check-ins. Live chat or text-based messaging can work for people who prefer writing things out or checking in between calls. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, travel or different time zones while using the approaches described above.
