About Elementa
Clinical expertise, delivered in a way that feels human
Elementa is a private online psychology clinic founded by three HCPC-registered Clinical Psychologists. We wanted to create a service that offers the depth of clinical psychology without feeling formal, distant or hard to approach.
Why we started Elementa
Between us, we have worked across NHS adult and child mental health services, specialist and forensic settings. We have seen how much difference good psychological care can make, and also how hard it can be for people to find it, or to feel comfortable once they do.
Elementa is our answer to that. A small, psychologist-led practice where you speak directly to an experienced Clinical Psychologist, where the process is clear from the start, and where the first step is simply a conversation.
The name
The elements that shape how we live
Psychological wellbeing is one of the fundamental building blocks of life. How we think, feel, relate to others, respond to pressure and make sense of our experiences all influence how we live.
By understanding the different elements that shape your wellbeing, we can begin to make sense of what feels difficult, recognise patterns and work towards meaningful change.
- How we think
- How we feel
- How we relate to others
- How we respond to pressure
- How we make sense of our experiences
What we believe good therapy looks like
-
Psychologist-led
Every client works with a qualified, HCPC-registered Clinical Psychologist. We are not a directory or a matching service.
-
Understanding before labels
We take time to build a shared understanding of what is going on and why, often called a formulation, before deciding what might help.
-
Evidence-based and collaborative
We draw on well-researched therapies and agree the direction of the work with you, reviewing it as we go.
-
Different perspectives
Three psychologists with different backgrounds and approaches means we can think carefully about who is best placed to help you.
Online, on purpose
We chose to work online because it makes good psychological care easier to reach. You can speak to an experienced Clinical Psychologist without travelling, from a place where you feel comfortable, at a time that fits around your life.
Online therapy is not a lesser version of in-person work. The relationship, the thinking and the evidence-based approaches are the same.
