Elaine Duncan

Typically available Monday evenings from 4pm - 7pm. I am currently working in online and / or telephone mode only and therefore have some flexibility to hold sessions on other days and times during the week. I do not work weekends.

Hello,

Do you need space and time to talk? Are you experiencing low mood, feeling stressed and / or coping with a long-term health condition(s)? Maybe you are seeking to increase feelings of wellbeing, process life-events, or re-examine your perspective on life? Perhaps you feel the weight of coping in your body and would welcome working with the body? In addition to my counselling portfolio I am a qualified yoga teacher who appreciates the value of working with the body as well as the mind to process trauma and life events. My approach is informed by positive psychology and wellbeing, where the focus is on life-satisfaction and flourishing. 

I am a Chartered Psychologist with over 25 years’ experience working with mental and physical health conditions. I can offer support with chronic illness and I have a particular interest in supporting individuals awaiting transplant or adjusting to life following transplantation.

As a Sport and Exercise Psychologist (HCPC Registered) my clientele base also extends to counselling for sports performance issues such as anxiety, injury and career transition from sport. I can work with those who want to become more physically active, offering strategies that foster motivation to begin, resume exercise, and / or aid attainment of personal exercise goals.

I offer long-term and brief, time-limited, counselling. I currently work in online and / or telephone modes . My practice is underpinned by the humanistic, person-centred approach and I am qualified to level 2 in Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT).

Elaine,

Dr Elaine Duncan

The use of the title Dr in this directory listing relates to the member’s doctorate qualification. However, this does not imply a general medical qualification.

I offer an online consultation that is shorter and a chance for you to ask questions, judge whether we are a good fit for each other, and work out frequency, preferred number of sessions. This initial online 'meet and greet' is a free. This session allows more explanation of your needs. If then the wish is to continue we would begin 50 minute sessions ensuring completion of the informed consent process at the next available mutual time.
