About Lizzie

Lizzie London is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship worries, trauma and abuse, grief, and self-esteem. She approaches sessions with respect for each person’s experience and believes people already have strengths to draw on. She aims to support and empower people taking the first steps towards change. Lizzie frames therapy as a practical process. She helps people talk through what’s happening now and what they want to be different. Conversations are used to identify coping steps and small experiments to try between sessions. Progress is built one step at a time rather than through quick fixes. Her background includes seven years of experience in therapeutic work and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That registration is noted here as part of her professional standing in the UK. Sessions are intended to be collaborative. Lizzie listens for patterns such as attachment and abandonment issues, body image struggles, codependency, and communication problems, and adapts the pace to the person in front of her. She also offers support around longer term health concerns, chronic pain, caregiver stress and life stage issues. People who come for help with relationship strain, anxiety, or grief will find a practical, steady style focused on everyday changes. Lizzie describes the work as empowering and rooted in the client’s own goals and strengths. She encourages gentle action and realistic steps to feel steadier over time.

How evidence-based methods can fit into online therapy

Evidence-based therapeutic techniques focus on practical steps and clearer thinking. For example, cognitive approaches help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking. This can be useful for anxiety, stress and low self-esteem as it provides simple tools to try day to day.

Another common approach used in evidence-based work looks at attachment and relational patterns. This helps people understand repeated relationship responses, address trust or abandonment concerns, and practise different communication choices. It is helpful for relationship strain and for people who want steadier connections.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the person about their goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they decide which techniques to try and adjust them as progress is made, keeping the plan practical and collaborative.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow a shorter check-in on a work break. It can also let people work at their own pace while using the same therapeutic methods they would in person.
