About Eleanor

Eleanor Dillon offers a warm, non-judgemental counselling style rooted in listening and practical support. She frames sessions around what matters to each person and helps them work through everyday struggles. Eleanor uses familiar language and clear steps so people know what to expect from therapy.

Eleanor holds the NCPS credential and brings three years of professional experience to her practice in the United Kingdom. She commonly helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression.

02

How Eleanor works

She also supports those facing parenting challenges and life transitions. Sessions focus on talking through current problems and learning skills that make day-to-day life easier. Eleanor draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and Client-Centred Therapy to follow the client’s own priorities.

She also uses Psychodynamic ideas to help people understand how past patterns influence present feelings. In practical terms she helps people manage overwhelm, build confidence, and improve communication. Eleanor addresses feelings of guilt, shame and isolation, and can talk through questions about life purpose, pregnancy and childbirth, and women’s issues.

Work is tailored to what each person brings to the room. People can expect calm, direct conversation and realistic steps to try between sessions. Eleanor encourages small changes that add up over time and supports people as they experiment with new ways of coping.

Online support options

How Eleanor’s approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy begins with listening and following what matters most to the person. The therapist creates space for someone to set their own goals and guides conversations around their priorities. This approach helps when someone needs emotional support and clear, person-led direction. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying small behavioural changes. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and stress because it gives practical tools to test different ways of thinking and acting. Psychodynamic ideas look at patterns that repeat across relationships and time, helping people understand why they react in certain ways. Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Eleanor will discuss options and choose methods with the person based on their needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative process makes sure sessions stay relevant and doable. Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls let people see facial cues and use visual tools, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat and text messaging can suit quick check-ins or people who prefer typing. These formats help fit therapy into busy lives and make it easier to keep momentum between appointments.
