Eli Barel, PACFA

Many people who appear to have life under control are often struggling inside. Stress can build slowly, relationships may feel strained, and the more someone pushes through, the more confusing everything becomes. When a person wonders "I should be able to handle this" yet the pressure keeps mounting, it is a common and understandable experience.

Eli Barel helps people identify what is happening beneath the surface and find a clearer way forward. His work focuses on practical, evidence-based approaches and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy - methods chosen to suit each person rather than applying theory for its own sake. He is a Clinical Member of PACFA, a national association for counsellors and psychotherapists, and is SIRA-certified, bringing extensive experience in supporting people through stress, trauma, and life transitions.

Sessions with Eli emphasize building resilience, widening perspective, and developing new responses to difficult situations. He frames therapy as an opportunity to understand, reset, and grow rather than a process of "fixing" someone. Whether someone is dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma, relationship struggles, or change, Eli offers a steady professional presence so those challenges do not have to be faced alone.
