Hello & welcome,
I’m Elissa Harris, a PACFA-registered counsellor and certified Clinical EFT practitioner dedicated to supporting you on your healing journey. My approach is person-centred, strengths-based, and trauma-informed, providing a safe and compassionate space to explore your inner world, process past traumas, and develop practical tools for emotional regulation, stress management, and mental well-being.
I believe in the power of a collaborative therapeutic relationship. You are the expert in your life, and I am honoured to walk alongside you as we work together to uncover your strengths and navigate life’s challenges.
My qualifications include a Graduate Diploma in Counselling, and I am nearing the completion of a Master of Counselling & Psychotherapy. I am trained in a range of evidence-based modalities, including Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy (EFiT), and Motivational Interviewing (MI). I also draw from Narrative Therapy, Schema Therapy, Polyvagal Theory (PVT), and Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT).
In addition, I am a certified Clinical EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) practitioner, having completed comprehensive training and mentorship under Jules Vandermaat, a leading expert in trauma-informed EFT. I first encountered EFT during my personal recovery journey from CPTSD, after traditional talk therapy alone fell short. The integration of somatic techniques with cognitive and exposure therapies was transformative in my healing, and it’s been a privilege to witness the powerful and lasting impact EFT has had on my clients.
My mission is to help you reclaim your peace, build resilience, and move forward with renewed confidence. Whether you are navigating trauma, emotional challenges, or simply seeking personal growth, I am here to support you every step of the way.
