Ella Haselden, BACP

Ella Haselden trained at the University of Chester, where she earned an MA in Clinical Counselling and achieved a distinction for research into how simple acknowledgements following early pregnancy loss - such as planting a tree, writing a letter, or making a charitable donation - can support healing. She developed a specialist focus on early miscarriage and ran a monthly support group prior to the pandemic, bringing focused experience to this area of loss.

Working as a fully trained Person-Centred counsellor, Ella creates an environment of respect, compassion and sensitivity where people can explore difficult emotions, deepen self-understanding and begin the work of recovery and personal growth. Her practice is integrative, allowing her to draw on a range of therapeutic models and techniques to tailor support to each person’s unique situation. Ella believes seeking change requires courage and she offers steady, nonjudgmental accompaniment through that process.

Ella is an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and brings 10 years of professional experience. Her background includes roles at Compass Counselling in Liverpool and the Psychological Therapies Unit, where she used Solution-Focused techniques, and commissioned work with Liverpool Whitechapel Centre and Aigburth Drive Hostel supporting people with complex needs. She opened a private practice in 2018 and has provided sessions weekly on Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 9am until 5pm, with a limited number of evening appointments available on request.
