Jason Elster, NCPS

Jason Elster is a counsellor who focuses on helping people manage anxiety, low self-esteem and stress. He works with individuals aiming to feel more confident and stable in their day-to-day life. Jason uses practical strategies drawn from solution-focused ideas alongside cognitive tools to help break unhelpful cycles.

He often looks at how thoughts and behaviours keep problems going and works with clients to try new ways of responding. Conversations are tailored to each person, so sessions cover things you want to change and the small steps that can make a difference. The aim is straightforward: find approaches that fit your life and help you feel better able to cope.

Jason supports people facing depression, relationship difficulties, addiction concerns, trauma and grief, and workplace or career-related stress. He also pays attention to issues such as intimacy, eating concerns, anger, ADHD and compassion fatigue. Additional focus areas include abandonment, communication problems, codependency and chronic illness where these affect everyday functioning.

He draws on a mix of client-centred, cognitive behavioural, mindfulness, psychodynamic and solution-focused ways of working. That means sessions can include exploring personal history, practising new thinking habits, and using present-focused strategies to manage upsetting feelings. Jason aims to be respectful, sensitive and non‑judgemental in every session.

Jason holds NCPS next to his name, shown here as NCPS. To start, clients follow a short matching questionnaire and then arrange sessions that suit them. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are welcome.

How Jason’s approaches translate to online counselling

Client‑centred work focuses on creating a compassionate, listening space. The counsellor follows your lead, asks where change is most needed, and adjusts conversations to what matters to you. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, gives clear tools to notice unhelpful thoughts and try different ways of thinking and behaving. It suits problems like anxiety, low mood and stress where practical steps can reduce symptoms.

Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The counsellor will check your goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. Together you can review what helps and change direction if something does not fit.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before you book. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling around work or family commitments, reduce travel, and offer quicker check‑ins when needed. It can also allow for shorter or longer sessions depending on what you need and how your week looks. Registered or accredited professionals commonly use remote sessions to help people work on thinking patterns, coping strategies and emotional awareness without changing the therapeutic content.
