Elliot Maguire uses a person-centred approach to help people feel steadier and more sure of themselves. He focuses on creating a calm, patient space where someone can slow down, talk through what matters, and begin to regain confidence. Elliot introduces practical steps alongside listening and reflection so people can leave sessions with something to try between meetings.

He holds NCPS, which is shown as NCPS, and has six years of professional experience working with a wide range of difficulties.

Background and approach

His work covers stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, anger, addictions, sleep problems, ADHD, and issues connected to intimacy and relationships. He also supports people with grief, coping with life changes, and challenges tied to body image or caregiving strain. Sessions tend to mix talking with practical tools.

Elliot draws on attachment-based ideas to look at relational patterns, client-centred skills to follow what matters most to the person, and cognitive behavioural techniques to spot and change unhelpful thinking. He may also offer EMDR or hypnotherapy when these fit someone’s needs and goals. People can expect straightforward language and a calm manner in sessions.

The style is warm and non-judgemental, with an emphasis on making sense of feelings and trying small experiments between sessions. Elliot aims to help people find clearer thinking, steadier mood, and more confidence in daily life. To begin, a short matching process and scheduling arrange the first meeting.

Sessions are available in several online formats, and international clients are accepted.

How online therapy and approach fit together

Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people notice repeating relationship instincts and try new ways of connecting that feel safer and more satisfying. Client-centred therapy puts the person’s experience at the heart of the work; the counsellor follows what matters most and reflects it back so the person feels heard and clearer about next steps. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers simple exercises to test and change unhelpful thinking.

Choosing the best approach is part of the process and it will be collaborative. The therapist will talk about what feels right, try different ideas, and adjust plans based on the person’s goals and preferences. That way the work stays practical and tailored to what the person needs.

Online sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video gives face-to-face contact, phone can be easier when bandwidth is low, chat or messaging can work for short check-ins or when fewer visual cues are wanted. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and travel, and to keep continuity when circumstances change.
