COUNSELLING & TALKING THERAPIES WITH
Estelle Harrison
Support. Self-Discovery. Self-Care
Hello & Welcome…
I’m so glad you’re here. Taking the step to seek support is an act of courage, and I’m here to offer a warm, respectful, and understanding space to help you navigate whatever it is you’re going through.
“Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves.”
Rainer Maria Rilke
Let’s be honest—life doesn’t always deliver the peace, love, and light we hope for. More often than not, life is messy & stressful. Sometimes, it’s just difficult and unfair.
When life gets out of balance, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed and alone. If this sounds familiar, you might feel stuck and unsure of where to turn.
But here’s the good news: you don’t have to figure it all out on your own.
Feeling Stuck or Overwhelmed?
How I Can Support You
Getting the support you need shouldn’t add to your stress. I offer online and telephone counselling, so you can access professional therapy from the comfort and convenience of your home.
“Ring the bells that still can ring,
forget your perfect offering.
There’s a crack in everything,
that’s how the light gets in”
Leonard Cohen
Online Counselling for Adults and Young People
Accessible, flexible, and tailored to your needs.
Online counselling offers professional support without the stress of travel or time constraints, making it easier to fit therapy into your schedule.
Support
Everyone needs support at times, but asking for help can feel daunting.
What if you had a safe, non-judgmental space to explore your thoughts and feelings, knowing you don’t have to face everything alone?
Self-Discovery
Who are you beneath the expectations, roles, and past experiences?
Therapy offers the opportunity to deepen self-awareness, uncover patterns, and reconnect with the most authentic version of yourself.
Self-Care
Looking after your mental and emotional well-being isn’t a luxury—it’s essential.
How often do you give yourself permission to slow down, reflect, and truly nurture yourself?
Counselling for Adults
I offer a safe and welcoming space where you can feel truly heard and understood.
Together, we’ll explore the challenges you’re facing, uncover their roots, and work at a pace that feels right for you—helping you gain clarity, resilience, and self-compassion.
Counselling for Young People
With over 15 years of experience supporting young people, I understand the unique challenges they face.
I provide a safe and supportive space where your child can explore their thoughts and feelings, build confidence, and develop the tools they need to navigate life’s challenges.
“I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become.”
— Carl Jung
About Estelle
Estelle has a borderline unhealthy obsession with knitwear (because what’s a counsellor without an extensive cardigan collection?) and loves a good conversation.

Estelle is a qualified counsellor and lover of warm beverages based in the North West of England, offering online therapy to adults and young people across the UK and beyond.
She holds a Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling and is an Accredited Professional member of the National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society (NCPS). She is also registered with the NCPS as a specialist Children & Young People’s Therapist.
Estelle is a recognised counselling provider for Bupa, Aviva, Vitality Health, Allianz, and WPA—so if you have insurance, it might just cover your sessions.
Before discovering her true calling as a counsellor, Estelle spent over 15 years navigating the wild world of education. With a degree in English and a teaching qualification under her belt, she worked closely with young people, gaining a deep understanding of neurodiversity, adolescent angst, and the unique challenges young people face. She also gained first-hand experience of stress and burnout and learned the hard way that even the most supportive workplaces often come with a side of chronic exhaustion and passive-aggressive emails. Retraining over four years of night classes, she juggled study, work and the occasional existential crisis.
Following an 18-month stint as a school counsellor, she embraced full-time private practice in 2022—and has never looked back.
Approachable, down-to-earth, and occasionally sweary, Estelle likes black coffee and walks in the woods. When she’s not counselling, she can be found messing with paints, scribbling in notebooks or negotiating with her houseplants (who, despite her best efforts, remain emotionally unavailable).
Estelle wholeheartedly agrees with Socrates that the unexamined life is not worth living—but unlike the great philosopher, she also enjoys not taking life too seriously and staying out of prison. Either way, life is for living, reflecting, and enjoying—preferably with a brew and a biscuit.
“The hero’s journey always begins with the call. One way or another, a guide must come to say, ‘Look, you’re in Sleeping Land. Wake. Come on a journey.”
Joseph Campbell
Real Voices, Real Experiences:
At the heart of my work is a deep respect for every client's unique story. I’m grateful to these individuals for allowing me to share their words, and I hope they offer you an insight into the support you can expect if you choose to work with me. Each testimonial is shared with permission.

“I am a great believer in talking things through. Counselling in general is a great way to do this, especially as it is impartial. In terms of experiences, Estelle has been a different level for me, personally. She understands me as a person and fully gets my needs.
Subsequently, she gives brilliant guidance and advice that are both invaluable and that I can easily apply to my day to day life.
Changing the way you think and approach situations is always a challenge. I can’t however recommend Estelle enough in terms of what she gives, in positively supporting this process. I now have a check-in session with her on a monthly basis, to keep myself where I need to be. Thank you for everything, Estelle.”

“Right from my first session with Estelle I felt I was being heard and understood and felt at ease to discuss whatever was on my mind and what had been troubling me.
I feel so grateful for her support and guidance, which I've received in a safe, non-judgmental space. I've been able to explore my feelings and understand things about myself for the first time. I’ve gained some valuable tools to help manage my anxiety which has really improved my wellbeing. Estelle has shown me empathy, compassion and professionalism and I'd be happy to recommend her as a counsellor to anyone seeking support.”

"I find Estelle to be highly knowledgeable but much more than that is the patience, kindness and warmth I feel during sessions. The service is tailored to me and I feel comfortable to say what I need from any session. I would wholeheartedly recommend.
I found Estelle after a lot of research. Previous counselling has been through the NHS but it felt like the right time for me to choose my own counsellor.
Having searched through many different therapists, Estelle's professional description really struck a chord. I am glad I followed my instincts about how inclusive and eclectic she is.”

"You are an excellent counsellor, who dives deep to get the inner fears and insecurities of the clients.
I just wished to let you know that your counselling sessions have been very effective for my depression. I believe you are a sensitive individual, who works around clients and goes extra mile to help them and this makes you an outstanding counsellor. Thank you very much for all your endeavours and excellent counselling for which I would always remain grateful.”

“I've had a very positive experience of counselling with Estelle. She is kind and understanding with great knowledge and insight on how best to help me work through the variety of subjects we speak about.
She carefully considers her words and helps me to understand the feelings that come up through the sessions. Estelle is also very flexible which I appreciate greatly when life gets busy. Overall, this is the best counselling I've personally had and would recommend her highly”

“I was someone who was thinking about therapy for a while, but was fearful of starting it. When I found Estelle and had an initial chat with her, she put me at ease and made me feel comfortable.
She’s very warm, friendly, and generous. It feels like I’ve got someone in my corner who will kindly challenge the worst thoughts I’ve had about myself, and is helping me realise those thoughts are not true. I’m so glad I reached out for help.”

“Estelle is a wonderful counsellor and has provided guidance and tools to assist my self-awareness without judgment.
She is compassionate and has helped me garner some insights to my life, helping me cope with my personal stresses and evaluate my emotions towards current events in my life, both good and bad. She listens and is able to catch onto my subconscious thinking patterns to better help me identify patterns of rumination as well.”
