About Elizabeth

Elizabeth Cockram is a counsellor with 15 years of experience based in the United Kingdom. She helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, relationship strain or major life changes. Libby also supports those facing trauma, grief, addiction, eating or sleeping difficulties, and questions around intimacy and identity.

She uses a straightforward, human approach. Sessions centre on what the person needs right now, not on jargon. Conversations can include practical tools, reflecting on patterns, and learning small changes that make daily life easier.

Libby has worked in Social Services and within the NHS, and she also runs a independent practice. That range of settings has given her experience with different kinds of problems and ways of working with people. Her background includes supporting people individually and in couples work around relationship issues.

Her practice draws on attachment-based ideas, client-centred ways of working, cognitive behavioural techniques, mindfulness and elements from the Gottman Method. These approaches are woven together to suit each person rather than used in a fixed way.

Clients can expect an approach that aims to be collaborative and practical. The therapist listens for recurring patterns, then helps people try new ways of relating and coping. For those specifically concerned about jealousy or trust in relationships, this is one of the areas she lists as part of her work.

Elizabeth is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and works in English. Prospective clients choosing to begin are asked to complete a short questionnaire before arranging sessions.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships influence current trust and closeness. It can help people who struggle with jealousy, fear of abandonment, or repeating hurtful patterns in relationships.

Client-centred therapy focuses on listening without judgement and following the person's lead. It helps people feel heard and understood while they make sense of their feelings and choices.

Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, gives practical tools to challenge unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and for managing intrusive worries that fuel relationship difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk through goals, preferences and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they will try methods that feel workable and adjust them as needed so the sessions meet real life needs.

Specific session formats are not listed in the original profile, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also help people access a counsellor when local services are limited, while still focusing on practical change and improved ways of relating.
