Ebikefe Eldridge, BACP

Ebikefe Eldridge offers online counselling rooted in person-centred principles, with additional psychodynamic insight and a practical emphasis on solution-focused work for shorter-term goals. She integrates mindfulness practices alongside Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and psychoeducational interventions to help clients learn skills for emotion regulation and to address somatic responses connected to trauma.

With six years of experience, Ebikefe works with a diverse range of concerns including complex grief and trauma, anxiety, depression, stress, relationship and family issues, parenting and career challenges, and difficulties related to identity such as LGBTQIA+ concerns, racial discrimination, and feelings of isolation. She also supports people facing caregiving stress, hoarding, questions of life purpose, post-traumatic stress, and intimacy or eating-related issues.

She describes talking therapy as an act of self-care and aims to create an affirming space that acknowledges clients as allies and welcomes LGBTQIA+ individuals. Ebikefe provides both short-term packages (approximately 12 weeks) and longer-term work (24 weeks and beyond) and uses evidence-informed approaches to help clients set realistic expectations and meet therapeutic goals.

Ebikefe holds the BACP credential (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) and offers one-to-one online support designed to empower reflection, growth, and practical change.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Ebikefe Eldridge draws on Client-Centered Therapy to create a supportive, non-directive framework where the client’s experience guides the work. This approach focuses on empathy, active listening, and the therapeutic relationship to help people explore values, identity, and emotional needs.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns. CBT is practical and skills-based and can be useful for anxiety, depression, stress management, and developing coping strategies for life transitions.

Mindfulness Therapy is incorporated to teach grounded awareness techniques that reduce reactivity, support regulation of somatic trauma responses, and promote present-moment coping. These approaches are selected and blended according to each person’s situation. Ebikefe works collaboratively with clients to find the best fit based on their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting methods as the work unfolds.

Online therapy with Ebikefe is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which makes it easier to schedule sessions around work, family, and daily commitments. The flexibility of remote formats supports continuity of care and helps clients access support from their own environment while working toward meaningful change.
