These are real experiences from clients we’ve supported.
When we first came to Elle, we were trying to understand our daughter's recent AuDHD diagnosis: what it actually meant, what was going on in her brain and how to support her.
Elle talked us through all of it with real patience and gave us strategies for regulation we still use today.
She then worked directly with our daughter on friendships and social situations, sensory sensitivities, big emotions, and getting through hard moments.
More recently she's helped me understand my own ADHD diagnosis, coming to it as an adult in midlife.
Elle is kind, knowledgeable and endlessly adaptable. She makes you feel instantly comfortable opening up without fear of judgement, and she keeps adjusting her approach and validating until something resonates.
I'd recommend her wholeheartedly to any family wanting to understand a diagnosis, their own or their child's, and find a way to thrive together.

Elle is amazing. My sons warmed to her style and personality and were able to connect with her. She was patient and kind and went out of her way to help them. They learnt important strategies which has helped them every day.

Elle is a fantastic therapist. She put my daughter at ease immediately and she looked forward to her online sessions.
After suffering with debilitating OCD, Elle came up with some great, workable strategies that have made a huge impact in our day-to-day lives and that we can implement ourselves easily. Thank you”.

I started with Mental-Health4u shortly after being referred for an ADHD diagnosis.
I had been in a long-term burnout and was struggling with anxiety as a result.
Elle immediately gave me practical exercises to identify what was causing the burnout and turn that around.
I’ve since come out of it, and now have the tools to identify when I’m at risk of it creeping in again.
Elle has helped me understand my ADHD symptoms and offered ways to manage them.
I feel completely supported and understood by Elle and our sessions continue to help my day to day life. - S, 34, Manchester
Over a two year period, Elle worked with my teenage son around his OCD.
I would describe her as nothing short of a miracle worker!
Her ability to form positive relationships, rooted in respect and empathy, whilst holding both myself (as a mum) and my son to account, was truly phenomenal.
During our time in therapy, Elle actively listened, endlessly supported, posed questions, provided strategies and worked tirelessly and systematically to help decipher and navigate the range of difficulties that my son was encountering.
She supported me as a mum to understand my son’s challenges and rebuild our relationship - which had become lost along the way.
As a family, we can’t thank Elle enough for everything she has done for us.
I would absolutely recommend Elle as a therapist. She is a true expert in her field and I would reach out to her again in a heartbeat.
