I know firsthand how frustrating the journey with IBS can be. I have met thousands of IBS patients throughout my career.
As someone who navigated the complexities of IBS and the shortcomings of NHS/public health care, I understand how exhausting it is to be shuffled from one professional to another, only to be given temporary fixes or told “it’s all in your head.”
I provide a holistic approach that focuses not just on symptoms, but on the person behind them. I offer the kind of understanding, personalised care, and sustainable strategies that I wish I’d had on my own journey.

Hi, I’m Dr Elena, and I’m a gastroenterologist. I specialize in helping high-performing individuals overcome the challenges of living with IBS so they can regain control of their lives. I’ve seen firsthand how IBS can impact every aspect of a person’s life—from their physical health to their emotional well-being and relationships. I understand how life-altering IBS can be. I’ve seen how this condition can make even the simplest activities—like eating out, traveling, or focusing at work—feel overwhelming.
What drives me is the frustration I’ve witnessed in so many people who feel let down by traditional healthcare systems. Appointments that feel rushed. Solutions that don’t address the whole person. Advice that focuses solely on symptoms without considering the emotional and mental toll of living with IBS.
That’s why I chose to do things differently.
IBS is complex, but that doesn’t mean it has to control your life. My approach focuses on:
I created this service because I believe everyone deserves personalised, compassionate care. You’re not just another case or set of symptoms—you’re a whole person, and your journey to healing matters. Together, we’ll work to break the cycle of frustration and create a plan that truly works for you.
When I worked within the traditional system, I saw how hard it was for people with IBS to get the care they truly needed. The appointments were too short, the solutions too generic, and the waiting lists too long. Worse, the emotional impact of IBS—like anxiety, shame, and isolation—was often completely ignored.
I created this online service because I wanted to offer something better. Online therapy allows me to meet you where you are, on your terms. Whether you’re balancing a busy career, family, or other commitments, you’ll have the flexibility to get the care and support you need without adding more stress to your life Online therapy allows me to provide a safe, empathetic, and accessible space for you to explore what’s really going on—without the hassle of long waits or the pressure to fit your needs into a rigid, one-size-fits-all approach.
I understand that your life is busy and demanding, and that finding time for your health isn’t always easy. With online therapy, you can get the support you need from the comfort of your home, on a schedule that works for you.
I understand your journey of negative tests but knowing there is still something is wrong with no one to listen or able to help. I am here to change that.
Together we identify your needs, triggers, thoughts and actions to change the negative cycle of distress with strategies tailored to your needs. Building resilience and coping skills with CBT, mindfulness and hypnotherapy.
I provide a safe space for you to share your story without judgement. To teach you how to manage your condition and take back control and independence.
How would it be to be able to go on the trip you always wanted? Not constantly checking the toilet access, fear of foods, or finally able to go on that date.
Just imagine what it would it be like to be able to go on that trip you always wanted, not constantly checking the toilet access. Not having to fear going to a restaurant and worry about what’s on the menu, or going on that date without the fear of embarrassment and wear that nice dress without having to worry if you look bloated.
Bowel issues come with shame and stigma which can lead to isolation and depression ad frustration. Having seen thousands of IBS patients, I have a clear understanding of the emotional burden and impact on quality of life that brings.
But now is the time to change, to take back control of your body and regain your independence.
