Steve Kirby
I have been practicing as a therapist for 20 years; working initially with substance misuse within a community addictions programme. I then spent three extremely challenging but rewarding years working in a residential drug and alcohol rehab. I have also worked for Cruse Bereavement Care, in a GP surgery and for two years taught on an undergraduate counselling course at the American University in Richmond, Surrey. For the past twelve years I have worked part-time in a psychiatric hospital, providing both individual psychotherapy and running therapy groups on both the addictions programme and the general psychiatric programme. Alongside this I have developed and maintained my own private practice. In my spare time I enjoy reading, music, cinema, running, travel and cooking.

Andrea Gavin
A warm welcome to my profile, For me, therapy can benefit everyone. It offers the potential for a metaphorical spring clean or MOT, space to process, reframe and recalibrate or rehearse the possible. Importantly, it can provide holding during those difficult life experiences. Psychotherapy, enables us to understand our relational ties and dynamics and step towards our relationships with fresh eyes. I love that therapy gifts us a helicopter perspective, a zooming out and shift in viewpoint. Across the years, I have been fortunate to build vast experience working with clients and patients in the NHS, Employee Assistance Programmes, within universities and also private practice. My ethos, is that therapy needs to be accessible, flexible and tailored to each persons individual needs. I have a love of culture and languages having been raised cross culturally in England and Portugal. My journey into psychotherapy happened by chance - through my work as a translator - I discovered the transformative power of psychotherapy programmes in street projects in Brazil. This took me on a new path leading to a psychology degree and professional training in psychotherapy completed in 2008. Every year I complete new training and in 2017 completed training in online counselling. As a psychotherapist, we are required to undertake a client journey ourselves - this is across many years. Undoubtedly, this helped shape my approach to my work - exposing me to working with body (concepts like character armour/self-protection), Psychodynamic (attachment and relational bonds), Gestalt (foreground/background and flow) and TA approaches (drivers, dynamics). I am an integrative psychotherapist - I look at how things regulate together or indeed where there is incongruence. Together we might explore pressure or choice points in your life or way of living within the context that human beings have a natural tendency for balance and wholeness (i.e. self-regulation) . Naturally, this happens when the right conditions are there - not dissimilar to growing plants - sunshine and water being essential. Clients' inform me that I am compassionate, warm and honest. I am also told they appreciate my ability for gentle and/or direct challenge as/when we agree this as an approach. In my practice I work with emotions ranging from connecting to these, labelling feelings and expressing them in a choiceful way. I am able to work with apathy as well as depression. I have experience of working safely with anger, fear as well as excitement and joy. Also, I am able to draw on basic CBT concepts to work with worry, anxiety and panic. I have accompanied individuals through their journey with grief and loss, adjustment at different stages of their lives. I have interest, experience and specialist training in working with emotional intensity in relationships and associated experiences such as gaslighting, power and control dynamics and domestic violence. I also have experience of working with families of prisoners. In addition to supporting clients and patients I have supported therapists in training through therapy during training as well as clinical supervision and reflective practice. I am interested in emotional and psychological well-being, personal development and growth, polarity work with emotions, motivation/goal setting, relational bonds and trauma. My availability can change so do please message me for my current availability. I hope this provides a glimpse at how I work and who I am as a therapist. Naturally, do reach out for more info. Andrea

Jana Hlavonkova
As an integrative counsellor, I offer therapeutic guidance with the mission of helping you remove barriers to self-alignment and healthy relationships. I specialise in working with neurodiversity, trauma, depression, anxiety, relationship problems and self-identity. The core of my client work is centred around self-empowerment. I offer you a compassionate and safe sharing space, where we can work on accessing your inner wisdom to navigate any challenges you might face. I invite my awareness, insight, and neuroscience to help co-facilitate this process. I intend to help you heal and flourish as your true, authentic self. My approach is inclusive, culturally sensitive and trauma-aware. Individual counselling Although my work is grounded in person-centred theory, I draw from various therapeutic approaches to meet your needs. I typically attend to different "parts" of the self that are often in conflict with each other. To uncover the heart of the matter, I take a holistic approach, examining current triggers and underlying patterns. I am deeply devoted to my work and clients, offering a non-judgmental space for you to explore your thoughts and emotions safely and with compassion. I endeavour to focus on the process rather than the outcome. My goal is to support you in achieving greater self-awareness and mental well-being by following your lead. You can learn more about my approach on my website www.guidancefromwithin.nl Relationship counselling Every relationship offers an opportunity for growth; however, we can easily become stuck in unhelpful response patterns. To cultivate conscious relationships with healthy boundaries, it’s important to examine the needs and attachments that drive our emotions, thoughts, and actions. I am dedicated to helping couples bridge their understanding of each other and engage in more constructive dialogues. Through mediation, I create a safe space where both parties are heard. My approach aims to foster deeper connections, mutual respect, and lasting relationship satisfaction.The modalities I employ include Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Imago Therapy, and Nonviolent Communication.

Ellie Mackay
Hi I am Ellie and I am a highly experienced and qualified psychotherapist who is based in Hull, East Yorkshire and over the years I have helped a wide range of clients who have experienced different issues. I am a facilitator of change, and just like scaffolding, I support my client while the delicate restorative work is ongoing. The aim of this process is to help you explore the cause of the issues, support you while you make the necessary adjustments, and then arm you with your own inner resources to continue your recovery journey. I use the key techniques of Gestalt psychotherapy: symbolic work, two chair work and dream work in a deeply empathetic way. This is not an exhaustive list, but here are a few of the symptoms that I have helped people with over the years. • Struggling to carry out day to day activities • Finding it hard to cope • Lack of confidence • Relationship issues • Struggling to getting up in the morning • Worrying thoughts & feelings • Overthinking • Catastrophizing (Expect the worst will happen) • Confidence & relationship issues. • Dealing with a very severe critic • Low self esteem • Childhood trauma • Difficult relationships • Addictions • Depression • Anxiety • Panic • Grief • Trauma surrounding childbirth, miscarriage & post-natal depression My practice embraces diversity in all its forms and I work keenly with people of all gender identities, sexualities, abilities, ethnic backgrounds, age groups, etc. My choice of profession has been born out of a fundamental desire to help heal people. My mission is to turn my passion for change into supporting my community and a world that I want my own family to grow up in. The work I do is more than just a job to me. It draws upon my natural strengths and has been finely tuned over many years of theoretical and practical experience. My work is also underpinned by my own programme of self-care and continued personal and professional development, to make sure you receive the most dedicated support possible. I really would love to help you and I provide a nourishing safe and non-judgemental holding space, so you have nothing to worry about. Why not book an initial session to see if you think my approach suits you?

Qualified and experienced Integrative Therapist supporting people with a range of challenges. Accessing therapy can feel like a daunting step but it is often a very rewarding one. It's helpful for us to think of an initial session as a way to explore if we can work together. I assure you that I will endeavour to enable you to feel safe, heard, sometimes challenged with compassion, trust and respected.

Emma West
Hi my name is Emma and I’m an experienced BACP Accredited, online counsellor. I can help you with a range of issues including stress, feeling depressed or anxious, dissatisfaction at work or with life in general, low self esteem/confidence, relationship/family problems, parenting issues, loss, anger, trauma and/or [unhelpful] 'safety’ behaviours such as avoiding [tasks / people / situations], rehearsing, seeking reassurance, ruminating, rituals, not/touching things, checking, limiting food, overeating, shouting, keeping quiet, over-working, prioritising others, making lists, procrastinating, using alcohol/drugs [including prescribed/psychiatric drugs], and worrying. Whatever you are struggling with I've found that the vast majority of my clients benefit from psycho education [learning about how the brain works but without the need to be a neuroscientist!]: say hello to your 'Monkey' brain... and most want practical strategies and techniques that they can easily apply to effect change in their day to day life.  If that sounds like you then please get in touch. I have developed a series of mind maps to help explain common issues eg anxiety, depression, life balance, sleep problems, and potentially useful solutions which include Cognitive Behavioural Therapy [which is about recognising and challenging unhelpful thinking], breathing techniques, mindfulness [which is about being in the here and now / accepting thoughts], and various written exercises - these are just some examples - really it's just a question of finding what works for you. I have a lot of experience of working with GPs, trainee doctors, and Fire Service employees. I also have specialist experience and knowledge of disability, carer, health, student, LGBTQIA2S+ and gender dysphoria issues, and I have lived experience of rare disability and carer issues. My background of working at the BBC and being a writer means I have a lot of experience of putting people at ease and developing a good rapport. I aim to offer a warm, friendly approach to counselling, which most importantly includes listening without judging. I'm experienced in doing long and short term work - even one off sessions - having worked in a variety of different settings including in the NHS taking referrals from the local Depression and Anxiety service, for an NHS Specialist Gender Identity Clinic [for individuals thinking about, or in the process of, transitioning], and at the University of Exeter, as well as counselling GPs, trainee doctors and Fire Service employees via Employee Assistance Programmes, as well as via my private practice. Finally, whilst I can't give you medical advice I can help you source information and support you if you are thinking about taking prescribed psychiatric drugs, are already taking psychiatric drugs but want to consider your options, have decided you want to stop taking them, and/or you are in the process of tapering already. NB Please message me if you'd like a session on a day/time that doesn't look available on my calendar because I could have availability and/or I can create a session slot for you.

Our online therapy philosophy


The goal of E-Therapy is to provide the best private online therapy in the UK, delivering emotional, psychological and behavioural therapies to improve the quality of life for those across the country and worldwide.

The problems we set out to solve


Owing to the complexity and difficulties of our everyday lives, there is a rising demand for these therapeutic services in order to help with our emotional, psychological and physical difficulties.

Sadly, stress, depression and anxiety are now common symptoms of our fast-paced modern times.

We also know that not everybody has the time or resources to find a suitable therapist, and attend face-to-face sessions. Additionally, the stigma of experiencing and dealing with emotional and other difficulties may also prevent those who would benefit from therapy or counselling from using the traditional approach.

We firmly believe that having access to therapy from the comfort of your own home, office, or wherever you choose can help with the problems outlined.

How we strive to help you


We are passionate about helping people live peaceful, joyful and harmonious lives. We also understand that this progress is constantly hindered by the complexities of daily living.

For therapists and counsellors, E-Therapy is a secure, confidential and effective platform through which they can deliver psychological and behavioural therapies. And because it is an online medium, our experienced therapists can reach out to a wider audience.

We strongly believe that with the appropriate guidance, a significant proportion of the population in the UK and across the world can be in a better position to deal with life’s complexities and not feel exhausted or overwhelmed in the process. We strive to improve the quality of life of our clients and assist them in achieving happiness, prosperity and fulfilment through the best online mental health services possible.


Our mission statement


Assisting mankind in the alleviation of psychological and emotional conflict, thereby enabling humanity to progress a step further in its quest for fulfilment, purpose and happiness, in essence creating a more sustainable and harmonious world.
