About me

Are you struggling with your relationships, sex, intimacy, confidence or simply finding life difficult to navigate? Perhaps you're feeling stuck, disconnected, overwhelmed or unsure how to move forward.

I'm Elizabeth, an experienced psychotherapist and specialist psychosexual and relationship therapist, with an MSc in Contemporary Psychosexual Therapy with Distinction and specialist qualifications in relationship therapy. I work with both neurodivergent and neurotypical adults, individuals and people in relationships of all kinds, offering a warm, non-judgemental and collaborative space to explore whatever is bringing you to therapy.

I have extensive experience working with neurodivergent clients and offer a neuro-affirming approach to ADHD, autism and other forms of neurodivergence. I don't see neurodivergence as something that needs to be fixed or changed. Instead, we can explore how your individual way of experiencing the world may be affecting your relationships, wellbeing, sexuality and everyday life.

My specialist areas are sex, intimacy, psychosexual difficulties and relationships, alongside my wider psychotherapy practice. I work with people experiencing difficulties such as low or mismatched sexual desire, sexual confidence, intimacy, communication, relationship conflict, disconnection and changes in sexuality or relationships following significant life events.

I work with people across a range of sexualities, gender identities and relationship structures, including monogamous, open and polyamorous relationships. My practice is LGBTQIA+ affirmative, kink-aware and informed by consensual non-monogamy (CNM).

If you're looking for therapy around something that feels difficult, private or hard to talk about, you don't need to know exactly what you need before getting in touch. We can have an initial conversation about what's happening and whether I might be the right therapist for you.

Daytime appointments are currently available in Chelmsford and Romford, as well as online therapy.

Member organisations

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.

COSRT
College of Sexual and Relationship Therapists (COSRT)

COSRT is the UK’s leading membership organisation for therapists specialising in sexual and relationship issues.

All members must abide by their Code of Ethics and the performance of accredited members is regularly monitored.

Accredited register membership

The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
