About Eila
BACP counsellor with six years' experience in the United Kingdom, Eila Ghrayeb helps people address stress, anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief and addictions. She uses a range of approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and attachment work to support people seeking clearer thinking and practical steps forward.
Eila offers direct, practical conversations that focus on what is most pressing. She listens to current difficulties and looks for small, manageable changes that reduce distress. Sessions often examine emotions, thinking patterns and everyday habits to identify what keeps problems going and what might help them shift.
Her background includes several years providing on-the-ground support for people facing homelessness, substance misuse and mental health challenges. That experience informs a practical, problem-solving style in therapy. She also has experience with complex presentations such as personality disorder diagnoses, bipolar disorder and histories of childhood abuse.
Eila works with issues around parenting, intimacy, eating and sleeping, anger, self-harm and cultural or multicultural concerns. She is able to discuss how personal faith relates to wellbeing for those who want that included in their sessions. Her approach combines client-centred listening with evidence-informed methods such as CBT and ACT.
People who prefer clear goals and step-by-step planning may find this approach useful. She helps people develop skills, better understand attachment patterns, and decide on the next practical steps in their lives.

How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) supports people to notice difficult thoughts and feelings while taking steps that match their values. It can help with anxiety, low mood and unwanted habits by teaching practical skills for everyday choices.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and teaches concrete strategies to reduce distress. It is often used for anxiety, depression and sleep or eating difficulties.
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in close relationships and how early experiences shape current responses. It can be useful where trust, intimacy or family problems are a concern.
Finding the right way of working is part of the process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t helped before, and then agree a plan together. That collaborative approach helps decide which methods to use and how to adapt them for the person’s life.
Confirm the current session formats before booking as the biography does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Registered or accredited professionals often use remote sessions to keep work manageable alongside daily responsibilities, while still focusing on practical steps and emotional understanding.
