Ellen Wolff-Houston

Psychotherapist and Life Coach.

Meet Ellen

Ellen Wolff-Houston is a life coach, executive coach and full time psychotherapist.

If you want to create your life, rather than react to it, Ellen is the practitioner for you. Offering confidential, non-judgemental spaces to open up about what’s really going on, Ellen will tailor a 1 to 1 coaching approach to suit your specific needs. Drawing from her experience with mindfulness, coaching, psychotherapy and energy work, you will be carefully guided down a path of self discovery, reconnecting with yourself, your purpose and your personal power. In a compassionate, warm environment you’ll explore emotions, challenges or repeating patterns, shift your perspective and begin co-creating the life you desire.

Ellen works with people from all backgrounds, with varying needs, having trained within the NHS, Nafsiyat Intercultural Therapy Centre and Headstrong Counselling. No experience is too shocking or too small to bring to your sessions. Ellen offers a space for you to reflect and begin to address the difficulties you are experiencing in your life.

As a person of colour and BAATN member, Ellen has a particular interest in exploring how race, class and culture can shape a persons experience of themselves, others and the world.

Ellen’s Background

Ellen’s multifaceted background — previously working with the United Nations, Facebook, Start-ups and Financial Institutions across Africa, North America and Europe — has given her a broad understanding of people, growth and universal pain points, all of which underpins her approach. Through working with startup founders and tech leaders to manage stress, Ellen developed a keen interest in how various disciplines could be combined to facilitate deeper healing alongside tangible growth outcomes. She became dedicated to furthering her knowledge, through studying indigenous practices and scientific approaches at various institutions in Indonesia and the United Kingdom, before opening her private practice.
