About Eleanor

Eleanor Dillon uses a conversational, client-centred approach to help people untangle worry and overwhelmed feelings. She aims to make sessions feel straightforward and non-judgemental. Eleanor is based in the United Kingdom and has three years of professional experience, holding NCPS credentialing.

Her practice focuses on stress and anxiety, low mood and coping with life changes. She also supports people worried about parenting, self-esteem and motivation. Eleanor listens for the issues that matter most and works with each person to set practical steps forward.

She combines client-centred listening with tools from cognitive behavioural therapy to spot unhelpful thinking and develop small, manageable changes. Eleanor also draws on psychodynamic ideas to help people understand repeated patterns in their relationships and feelings. Sessions are conversational and paced to the individual’s needs.

Common topics include communication problems, guilt and shame, isolation and questions about life purpose. Eleanor also offers support around pregnancy and childbirth, self-love and women's issues. She keeps language plain and focuses on actions people can try between sessions.

People who prefer a calm, steady pace and a collaborative working style may find her approach helpful. Eleanor encourages short-term goals alongside deeper reflection so people can notice progress as they go.

How Eleanor’s approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's experience. The therapist offers empathy and reflection so people can explore what matters to them and decide on next steps. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy or CBT looks at thoughts, feelings and behaviours in a practical way. It helps people spot unhelpful thinking and try small experiments to change how they feel.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Eleanor will discuss your needs and preferences and together you will choose which methods to try. She adjusts her use of listening, CBT techniques or psychodynamic reflection to match what you want to achieve.

Online sessions can be held by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different routines. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a shorter check-in, and messaging lets you write between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare and daily life while keeping the focus on practical progress.
