About me
Welcome to my profile. My name is Lizzie, my counselling approach is warm, accepting and genuine. I'm fully a qualified experienced counsellor and I'm registered with the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy. My practice is in Lewes, East Sussex.
Talking through your problems with a highly experienced safe, trusted counsellor can make a big difference to how you feel. With understanding and empathy, we can explore what's going on for you, begin to work things through, and then find ways to move forward in your life.

I provide a safe and caring place to talk - I will do my very best to help you.

Member organisations
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy
BACP is one of the UK’s largest professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy. Therapists registered with the Association fall into a number of different membership categories such as Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP and Registered Member MBACP (Accred), each standing for different levels of training and experience. MBACP (Accred) and MBACP (Snr Accred) members have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by the Association.
Registered members can be found on the BACP Register, which was the first register to achieve Accredited Voluntary Register status issued by the Professional Standards Authority. Individual Members will have completed an appropriate counselling and/or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but will not appear on the BACP Register until they've progressed to Registered Member MBACP status.
All members are bound by a Code of Ethics & Practice and a Complaints Procedure. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
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).
