About Elise Clement Psychotherapy & Coaching
I combine holistic psychotherapy and coaching to support women’s mental and emotional wellbeing as they navigate their motherhood journey. I specialise in matrescence and perinatal support, including all aspects of the transition to motherhood and nurturing emotional resilience during the mothering years.
My own experience as a mother informs my practice. This phase of my life has not only taught me how to nurture my relationship with my daughter, but also how to nurture my relationship with myself. Along the way, I realised how much conditioning I had internalised and how this was affecting my ability to connect with my instincts and personal power.
I now combine my lived experience together with my skills as a psychotherapist, coach and facilitator to support mothers in:
- navigating the challenges, discomfort and doubts that accompany times of change.
- connecting to the new needs, values, desires and strengths that emerge so they can feel empowered in their different roles (as women, partners, daughters, mothers)

Finding Calm within the Chaos
This idea flips the script. Instead of seeing happiness, peace or calm as something that only exists in the future, tied to the achievement of a goal, it invites you to find joy and satisfaction in the present moment. It’s a reminder that your feelings aren’t just an outcome of a milestone, but they are a tool for creating it.

Helping Children Navigate Grief
Children experience grief differently than adults. They may not have the words to express their feelings, so they show them in other ways—through tears, anger, or even unexpected silliness. Some days, they may seem perfectly fine, and the next, a wave of sadness can hit them out of nowhere. It’s all part of how they process the big feelings they don’t fully understand yet.
