About me
Hello and a very warm welcome.
My name is Liz, I am a qualified Person Centered and CBT therapist working with adults, children, and young people.
My Counselling Practice is situated in the village of Tottington on the outskirts of Bury. I provide a warm empathic and professional service in a safe and compassionate space tailored to your individual needs. Here you can expect to talk through your feelings, thoughts, and concerns in a non-judgemental environment where we will work together at your own pace.
I believe that being listened too and understood with empathy and acceptance can be the start of a deep healing process that will provide you with calmness and a real sense of relief and clarity.
I believe each client's experience is unique to them so an initial consultation will help to establish what will happen in your counselling sessions and any queries you may have.
It is time to take the first step towards living a more contented, balanced, and healthier life you deserve.

Member organisations

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.

Liz has helped me through the most traumatic period of my life.
When I started my journey with Liz I could not see a way forward and was deeply traumatised.
Liz guided me through this period and not only healed past traumas but she also gave me life skills on how to cope when facing new challenges.
I would recommend Liz without any reservations.

More helpful than I ever could have hoped.
3rd March 2025
I saw Liz for close to 2.5 years, throughout that time I saw Liz once a week, the support and understanding offered by Liz was more then I ever could have asked for. She helped me more than I could ever believe. Having that one person to talk to who was impartial and didn’t judge at all was amazing. Liz helped get me through some tough times and I could never thank her enough.

I am the senior mental health lead at a secondary school. We are very lucky to have Liz as our school counsellor. She has supported many of our young people through some of their most difficult and challenging times.
Liz shows great warmth, compassion and creates an environment which allows students to feel safe. Liz builds trusting therapeutic relationships with every child that she works with and offers a real holistic approach the work that she undertakes with each and every young person.
I am a great believer in listening to the voice of each child to gain a true insight of their views. Each of the many young people that Liz has supported, have given me excellent feedback about Liz and the support that she offers. They look forward to their sessions and see a genuine improvement in how they are feeling and managing every day.
If you are considering counselling as an option, I would highly recommend booking a session with Liz. I have seen first-hand, the impact that she can make in helping you feel better.

Empathetic

Before attending counselling sessions my son was in a terrible place emotionally. He felt comfortable expressing his feelings to Liz. She was a great listener, non-judgmental and supportive. She understood his needs and helped him to regulate his emotions. He has become more confident and happy within himself.
Thank you Liz. I would highly recommend you.

Calming and supportive

Liz really put my son at ease and supported him. It was clear she tailored the. Support to match his age and needs and did this to get the best possible outcome within sessions. The environment the sessions are completed in is relaxing, calming and a safe space. Liz continued to encourage my son and would always follow up the next session and ask how a certain event was. Amazing service and would really recommend.
