About me
Life doesn't always unfold the way we expect. You might be struggling in your relationships, feeling overwhelmed by the pressures of work, questioning who you are and where you're heading, or facing a crossroads after a significant life change.
The life you have doesn’t feel the same as it once did.
From the outside, it may seem as though you're coping, keeping everything together for everyone else. But on the inside, you're beginning to wonder how much longer you can keep pretending everything is OK.
These pressures can cause anxiety, a loss of confidence, low mood and stress. Therapy will help you make sense of what's happening, understand the patterns that are keeping you stuck, and help you move forward with greater confidence, clarity and self-belief.
A client's recently commented:
'I cannot recommend Liz highly enough. I feel completely at ease during my sessions and was completely comfortable from the start. I can say that from working on myself with Liz I am starting to see the benefits as are those around me. After only a few weeks of sessions I completely trust her and look forward to speaking with her each week. It's changing my life for the better. '
Training, qualifications & experience
My name is Liz and I am an experienced psychotherapist and an accredited member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists. I have a postgraduate diploma in therapeutic counselling and a certificate in couples counselling. I work integratively which means that I draw on a variety of approaches in my counselling practice. I work with clients who have problems with relationships, work stress, identity, transitions, issues related to pregancy and parenthood.
Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
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.
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).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
