Hi, my name is Liz. I’m an online counsellor.  I’ve worked as a counsellor since 2013 and started in private practice in 2015.  I’m based in Rossendale.  Working online enables me to work with clients all over the UK, including Manchester and London areas.

I’m very passionate about my work and I feel privileged that my clients allow me to be a part of their journey whilst helping them through their personal struggles, which can be very difficult at times but also amazing as I watch them grow in confidence and make choices and decisions for themselves without the fear of being judged or getting it wrong or hearing them use words like “I’m proud of myself because …..” or “I’m pleased with myself because ……” or even “I wouldn’t have done that a month ago”. 

I mostly work with clients with anxiety as I know the impact this can have on our day to day lives and I want to help people create a balance that feels right for them and start to put themselves before others, which I know most people find difficult.  I help clients to unlearn things they’ve done for a long time and learn new ways of being that suit them and make life easier.
