I have been working in this field for over twenty years now and I still have a determined passion for it. I am trusted to hear the life narratives and difficulties of those seeking support and my aim is to help you feel heard and empowered. I have never lost sight of this aim. I have worked with people who have felt very isolated by their own thoughts, felt intense shame, and struggled to cope with overwhelming feelings. Usually they have not felt able to talk to those around them for fear of judgment, embarrassment or rejection. I feel privileged to have been trusted by my clients which enables me to help lessen their burden.

When a client feels comfortable enough to share with you their best kept fears, hopes and undisclosed events in their life it feels like a privilege. Don’t know where to begin, feel stuck and feelings of despair? Ready for change and want to transform your life? Feeling apprehensive and lost? Want to work through difficult relationships, bereavement or loss, life stress, addictions, health conditions? The list can go on. Are you feeling sad, overwhelmed, low self esteem, disorganised or undervalued. Do you struggle to be assertive or feel motivated? Questions around identity or sexuality. Struggling with neurodiversity?

Hi my name is Lizzie, How are you feeling? unhappy, anxious, stressed, angry or depressed, or is there something specific you feel you would like to talk about. Life can be difficult and overwhelming, we sometimes struggle to make sense of our feelings and what is going on for us. We can get stuck and not know how to make life more comfortable. Although that first step can be nerve wracking and sometimes difficult, Counselling can be that first step to making that positive change. This is your time for you, to be listened to and understood and have the the world seen from your perspective, at a pace that is comfortable for you.

You may be feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, stuck, or as though you have spent much of your life trying to cope alone. Perhaps anxiety, burnout, addiction, trauma, or difficult life experiences are affecting your relationships, confidence, or ability to feel comfortable in yourself. You might also feel that you experience the world differently from others or have never quite felt that you fit in. Reaching out for therapy can feel daunting, but it can also be the beginning of understanding yourself in a deeper and more compassionate way.

You can get used to almost anything. That is part of the problem. How alone it feels. How long it has been carried without anyone really seeing it. How tiring it is to keep performing fine while something underneath quietly does not feel fine at all. Some things are hard to say out loud. That you are not as okay as you look. That you resent people you love. That part of you checked out a long time ago and has been performing the rest. Most people do not come to therapy because something dramatic happened. They come because they are tired of carrying it alone. That is reason enough. We can start there.

If you are experiencing anger, anxiety, panic attacks, nightmares, flashbacks, hypervigilance, emotional exhaustion, or a sense of self-doubt, you are not alone. Trauma — including narcissistic emotional abuse — can leave you feeling stuck in survival mode, as though you are existing rather than truly living. Therapy can help you find your way back to yourself. I am a UK-based psychotherapist specialising in trauma and narcissistic abuse. I work with individuals who are in, or who have already left, abusive relationships and want to break trauma bonds, rebuild self-worth, and heal the impact of long-term emotional harm.

However, I value individual differences, respect, diversity, culture, integrity, honesty and ability to find your own path, grow, connect and build an enduring relationship. I firmly believe individuals can be empowered to find their own solutions. I am aware I might not have all the answers or solutions, but I could give one or two suggestions.

FAQ - Teenage and Adolescent Therapists
What does therapy for teenagers look like?
When a therapist works with a teenager, the pair will talk about what the teen is struggling with and explore solutions, which may involve interpersonal skills, coping strategies, medication, or lifestyle changes related to sleep, diet, and exercise. Different therapists employ different modalities, but most involve a combination of conversation and skill building.

How long does therapy for teenagers generally take to work?
There’s variability in teenagers’ experiences and challenges; some may begin to improve from therapy within a few weeks while others may take several months or longer. Teens can discuss their progress with their therapist periodically to assess how they’re improving and any changes to the treatment plan that could potentially accelerate that progress.

How do you encourage a teenager to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love while framing therapy as an opportunity to explore a tool that could help improve their life; just like they practice baseball or dance, now they can practice their emotional skills. Give your teen control over the process where you can—maybe by weighing in on choice of therapist and signaling that therapy involves confidentiality, so a parent need not know all that is discussed in sessions.

How do you prepare teens for therapy?
You can prepare your teenager for therapy by describing what the process will look like and setting expectations for timeline, if requested. You can explain that the first session may begin with an assessment phase, that they can describe their experiences but that the therapist will ask questions too, and that it may take time to feel comfortable opening up. Ask how they’re feeling about the process and answer any questions calmly and supportively.
