Working Together
Elementa offers private online therapy for adults experiencing a range of emotional and psychological difficulties. We understand that people can arrive at therapy for very different reasons, and may not always have the words to explain what they are feeling or where to begin.
Our work is evidence-based, collaborative and tailored to the individual. Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, we take time to understand your experiences, the challenges you are facing and what you would like to change. From there, we draw on a range of therapeutic approaches to shape support around your needs, goals and circumstances.
Below, you can explore some of the areas we commonly support with, followed by a clear overview of what the therapy process with Elementa can look like.
AREAS OF SUPPORT
Support shaped around what you are facing
These are some common reasons people seek support, but experiences often overlap. We focus on understanding you as an individual, rather than fitting you into a box.
Anxiety
Support for feelings of worry, overwhelm, avoidance and persistent anxiety.
Stress & Burnout
Therapy for ongoing stress, emotional exhaustion and the impact of pressure over time.
Low Mood & Depression
Support for low mood, loss of motivation, emotional heaviness and depression.
Trauma
Therapy to help process difficult or traumatic experiences and their lasting effects.
Relationships
Support in understanding relationship patterns, boundaries and emotional connection.
Self-Esteem
Therapy to explore confidence, self-worth and how you relate to yourself.
Identity & Life Transitions
Support through change, uncertainty and questions around identity, direction and self-understanding.
Neuro-affirming Support
Thoughtful, affirming support for adults exploring or living with ADHD or autism.
Emotional Dysregulation
Help with intense emotions, emotional overwhelm and difficulty finding steadiness.
Grief & Loss
Support in making sense of loss, bereavement and the emotional impact of change.
Parent Coaching
Support for parents navigating communication, boundaries and challenges in family life.
Sleep Difficulties
Support for difficulties falling asleep, staying asleep or feeling rested, including sleep disrupted by stress, anxiety or unhelpful patterns.
OUR PROCESS
Getting started with therapy
A clear and thoughtful process, designed to help you understand what to expect at each stage.
Make an Enquiry
Get in touch to tell us a little about what you are looking for and ask any initial questions about working with Elementa.
15-Minute Introductory Call
We’ll arrange a relaxed, no-pressure 15-minute call at a convenient time. It’s an opportunity to get to know Elementa, ask questions and tell us a little about what you are looking for.
We can then help you consider which of our Clinical Psychologists may be best placed to support you.
Initial Assessment & Understanding Your Needs
All new clients begin with a 50-minute online assessment (£130). We explore what has brought you to therapy, your circumstances and goals, and begin building a shared understanding of your experiences.
Together, we consider what support may be most helpful and whether Elementa is the right fit.
Therapy Begins
If ongoing therapy is agreed, sessions continue online on a one-to-one basis, tailored to your individual needs and informed by evidence-based psychological approaches. Sessions would typically take place on a weekly or fortnightly basis. This is all dependant on the individual.
Reviews & Progress
Where appropriate, we review progress together to ensure the work remains helpful, focused and aligned with what you are hoping to achieve.
Endings
We think about endings together, creating space to reflect on what has changed, what you are taking forward, and how best to bring the work to a meaningful close.
Ready to take the next step?
You do not need to have everything fully understood before reaching out. If you recognise yourself in any of the difficulties described on this page, an initial assessment can help clarify what is happening, what support may be most helpful, and whether Elementa is the right fit for you.
Our aim is to make the process feel clear, thoughtful and supportive from the beginning.
Ready to Get Started?
We’ll start with a relaxed, no-pressure conversation at a time that suits you. It’s a chance to talk through what’s going on, ask questions and see whether Elementa feels like the right fit.
