About Elena
Elena Harvey-Kummer is a BACP counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, low mood, grief and self-esteem struggles. She also supports those dealing with anger, motivation dips, and major life changes. Her work often addresses men’s wellbeing alongside other personal concerns.
Elena believes clients know their own stories best. She offers a steady, listening presence and practical tools to help people move forward. Sessions focus on small, manageable steps and clearer thinking about choices and goals.
Her practice draws on several evidence-informed approaches. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, for example, is used to spot and adjust unhelpful thinking. Client-Centred Therapy helps build a collaborative and respectful relationship where the client guides the pace.
Elena also brings in psychodynamic ideas to look at how earlier experiences affect current patterns. Solution-Focused and existential elements are used to identify strengths, clarify values, and set meaningful goals. Coaching techniques support practical change and follow-through.
She has three years of professional experience working in the United Kingdom and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are accepted. If this way of working feels like a fit, Elena invites people to start with a short matching questionnaire and arrange a first appointment.
How Elena’s approaches work in online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy is based on a respectful, non-judgemental relationship where the person sets the pace. It helps when someone needs acceptance, clearer thinking and support to work through difficult feelings.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of thinking and behaving. It is often used for anxiety, low mood and stress because it offers concrete strategies and short exercises to try between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Elena will collaborate with each person to decide which combination of methods fits their needs, goals and preferences. That choice can change as therapy progresses and practical goals become clearer.
Because the biography does not list specific online or in-person formats, confirm session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy weeks, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises and between-session tasks so therapy fits everyday life rather than the other way around.
