Ellen Sharrocks Counselling

Counselling in Central Leicester

Welcome to Ellen Sharrocks Counselling


My established practice is conveniently located on Friar Lane in the Old Town area of Leicester city centre. I am an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), which means my practice safely follows a trusted ethical framework. I am here to help you navigate life's challenges.

Ellen Sharrocks MBACP (Accred)

I trained at the University of Leicester (Vaughan College), and my practice is grounded in a contemporary psychodynamic approach. This means that alongside addressing your immediate symptoms, we can look gently at underlying patterns, past experiences, and relationship dynamics to foster deep, lasting change.  Having previously worked within an agency setting at The Leicester Counselling Centre, I bring extensive experience in supporting clients through a wide range of emotional difficulties, including:

Anxiety and Depression: Navigating overwhelming worry, low mood, and daily stress.

Relationship Issues: Working with individuals and couples to improve communication, resolve conflict, and understand relational dynamics.

Trauma and Abuse: Safely processing difficult past or present experiences in a supportive environment.

Bereavement and Loss: Providing a compassionate space to process grief and life transitions.
