Elinor is a Relationship, Climate & Disaster Counsellor whose work sits at the intersection of intimate relationships, social justice and the wider socio-political and environmental systems that shape our lives.

While Elinor offers both individual and couples counselling, her approach extends beyond the idea that relationship distress exists solely between two people. She works from the understanding that relationships are embedded within culture, history, power, place and political reality and that emotional patterns, conflict and disconnection are often responses to these broader forces, rather than personal or relational failure.

Grounded in an academic background in Environmental Studies, Elinor brings a climate-literate, systems-aware approach to therapy. She is certified in disaster mental health counselling and emphasises the vital role of Psychological First Aid (PFA) in supporting people affected by crises. She works therapeutically with individuals and couples impacted by climate-related events, environmental loss, displacement, and both human-made and natural disasters. She supports clients experiencing climate grief, moral distress, trauma, uncertainty, and the relational impacts of living in a rapidly changing world.

Elinor is intentional about naming and working with socio-political realities in the therapy room, recognising that many counselling approaches struggle to adequately account for how oppression, colonialism, environmental degradation and structural inequality shape behaviour, emotional regulation and relational dynamics. This awareness is foundational to her work.

Her practice draws on evidence-based approaches while applying an uncolonising counselling framework that values multiple ways of knowing, healing and relating. Elinor creates space for relationality that includes not only partners, but also relationships with land, community, culture and collective belonging.

She warmly welcomes people to her practice from diverse cultural backgrounds and life experiences, including LGBTQIA+ people, neurodivergent individuals, and those whose identities or relationships sit outside dominant cultural norms.

Elinor practices on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays and is currently accepting new clients.
