Ellie Harvey, Integrative Counsellor & Coach, Stoke Newington

Life can be complex, and we’re rarely taught how to navigate some of the most challenging experiences we face. Many of us will feel stuck at some point and seeking support, in whatever form, is a natural and courageous step.

Therapy is one way of finding support. it provides a dedicated space to reflect, process, and work through emotional difficulties or internal conflicts with someone by your side. It offers understanding, guidance, and practical tools, helping you gain perspective, feel more in control, and build skills to support yourself through life’s challenges.

I work with individuals, couples, and groups, supporting people through a wide range of experiences, including anxiety, low confidence, relationship difficulties, life transitions, and the lingering effects of past experiences. Many clients also come to therapy wanting to grow and thrive, not just manage challenges. This can include strengthening communication, clarifying boundaries, deepening self-understanding, and moving toward a life that feels more aligned and meaningful.

My approach is integrative, drawing on several evidence-based Psychotherapy and coaching models so our work can adapt to your needs as they evolve. I place great value on the therapeutic relationship, offering a warm, grounded, and collaborative environment where you can explore your experiences at your own pace.

I aim to strike a balance between gentle directness and curiosity. I offer insight, guidance, and practical tools when helpful, while respecting your autonomy and sense of what feels right for you. Together, we combine professional knowledge with your lived experience to support clarity, resilience, and meaningful change.

My practice is LGBTQ+ affirming, trauma-informed, and welcoming of clients from all backgrounds and identities.

I offer in person therapy from my practice room in Stoke Newington, as well as online sessions for clients across the UK.

As an integrative therapist, I draw from Person Centred Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, solution focused and Existential approaches. This flexibility means our sessions can shift depending on what you bring. Sometimes the work may be more reflective and exploratory, and at other times we may focus on building practical tools, understanding patterns or developing new responses to old habits.

At the heart of the process is the relationship we create together. I aim to provide a space where all parts of you are welcome, whether you are working through something painful or exploring how to live more fully. Together we can deepen your understanding of yourself, shift patterns that may no longer serve you and support you to make choices that feel empowering.

I work with individuals, couples and groups, supporting adults seeking clarity, emotional well-being and personal growth.

I offer 50-minute consultation sessions at half my usual fee. Get in touch to book.

These sessions are a chance for us to see if working together feels like a good fit. You’ll have the opportunity to share what brings you to therapy and what feels important at this stage, and I’ll ask some questions to help clarify your needs and goals. There’s no pressure to talk about anything before you feel ready.

If we decide to continue, we’ll agree on a regular session time that works for you. You are always free to pause or end therapy whenever you need to, and I aim to support any ending thoughtfully.
