About me
WHO I AM
My name is Elizabeth (Liz) Lawrence. I am a Counsellor, Counselling Supervisor, Nutrition therapist with particular interest in weight management, eating disorders and disordered eating and behaviour patterns. I also offer counselling for neurodiversity (ASD, ADHD, ADD and Dyslexia) for children and adults.
I offer professional and empathetic support to help you work through any problems you may be experiencing. I will help you to gain understanding, create solutions, strategies and progress positively. I use an integrative approach, utilising a number of methods to suit your needs. I also offer counselling to adults, young adults and children.
WHAT I DO and HOW IT CAN HELP
I offer effective therapy in a wider variety of areas, including: depression, stress and anxiety, relationship problems, family difficulties, bereavement, social anxieties, addictions and many more. After a long career in teaching, I offer counselling for teachers, young students with exam stress, panic and anxiety around school/university, seeing effective results in teens. I have also worked with mature students making a change in career, those with recent diagnosis of ASD and ADHD .
I work in Chelmsford, in a confidential setting with individuals, couples and groups.
I offer a confidential and non judgmental place in which you can talk about, and explore areas of difficulty in your life. This could be an immediate crisis, such as a relationship breakdown, bereavement, or it may be due to more long term problems such as feeling low, anxious, or depressed, having relationships difficulties, or just feeling a low mood and feeling like something needs to change or if you have had a recent diagnosis that you are struggling to come to terms with.
To find out more about whether counselling could help, please feel free to give me a ring, text or contact me by email to see how I can help. Evening appointments are available.
