About Lizzie

Lizzie London is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with seven years of experience. She works with people who are feeling stressed or anxious, dealing with relationship difficulties, processing trauma and abuse, managing grief, or struggling with self-esteem. Lizzie’s approach is practical and person-focused; she treats clients as the experts in their own lives and draws on their strengths during sessions.

She encourages a straightforward conversation about what feels stuck and what might need to change. Sessions tend to focus on immediate problems and clearer next steps rather than abstract theory. Lizzie aims to help people notice patterns, try new ways of coping, and make small shifts that feel manageable.

Her background includes seven years of professional practice and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). Lizzie has worked across a range of concerns beyond the core areas listed, including attachment issues, body image, chronic illness and caregiver stress, and communication problems.

In sessions she listens for practical barriers and for the strengths clients already use. Conversations might include exploring past experiences that shape current reactions, rehearsing different ways of communicating, or planning small behavioural experiments. The emphasis is on clear, doable steps rather than lengthy theory.

People who contact Lizzie can expect direct, steady conversation and a focus on day-to-day improvements. She asks clients to describe their goals, then works with them to test what helps and what does not. This can help when someone feels unsure about what comes next in work or life.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Evidence-based approaches often used in practice include short-term problem-focused work, which focuses on current difficulties and practical coping strategies. This can help with anxiety, stress and day-to-day relationship problems by breaking issues into manageable steps and testing changes in real life.

Another common approach is trauma-informed talking therapy, which gives space to describe and make sense of difficult experiences. This method pays attention to how past events affect present reactions and looks at practical ways to reduce distress and improve regulation.

Choosing the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk through your goals, preferences and life context and together decide what methods to try. That decision is collaborative and can change as you learn what helps.

Session formats are not specified here, so please confirm current online options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people join from a quieter place or avoid camera use if that helps them engage. Registered or accredited professionals can discuss which session arrangement will suit your circumstances and goals.
