Other's experiences
It can be helpful to know what other's experiences have been in counselling. The length of time the process takes depends on the person and what they wish to work on/through. The testimonials below are the words some previous clients have chosen to describe their thoughts on counselling. Huge thanks to them. This may help you decide if I am right for you....
“After the sudden loss of our eldest son, Liz was an anchor for all of us. She supported every member of the family, honouring our different ways of grieving while gently bringing us back together. She helped us navigate the practical arrangements with calm clarity. She had a rare ability to bring light into the heaviest moments as her gentle humour - always sensitive and always appropriate - gave us permission to breathe again, even smile, at times when we thought that would never be possible again. We will always be deeply grateful for Liz’s compassion, her steadiness and wisdom, and the care she showed us through the most painful chapter of our lives.." 'P'
"Counselling with Liz gave me a confidential, non-judgemental space to explore my thoughts and feelings and better understand what I was going through. With warmth and skill, she gently helped me find my own solutions, supporting me through a time when I felt very low and stuck, while also contributing to my personal growth, relationships, and overall wellbeing. Being in the room with Liz felt grounding, safe, and connecting, and that in-person presence made the work feel meaningful and lasting".

"Working with Liz in person was genuinely transformative for me. Liz helped me make sense of experiences I’d been carrying for years and identify patterns with kindness and steadiness. The huge thing for me, was that she helped me to understand setting boundaries both personally and professionally, and that my needs actually mattered. Unplanned though it was, Liz also supported me through a very testing time in my professional life, with clarity, kindness, and steadiness. Encouraging me to hold firm with boundary setting, and self-care.
I do feel that for me, meeting in person really made a huge difference, because it made it much more real, and if I’m honest much more relational. It actually helped me to open up more, because of feeling “held” in a safe space, not worrying whether someone was going to walk in any second and interrupt like you’d potentially get on a video or telephone call.
I would highly recommend Liz to anyone considering counselling, I know that for some people the thought of counselling can feel scary, but Liz’s warmth, reassurance and genuine care make it very easy to relax and to feel safe".

“I began seeing Liz after my brother passed away when I was 16, during one of the most difficult times in my life. Her care, patience, and skill helped me navigate grief that once felt impossible to face. Liz provided a safe space to process loss and gave me practical tools that have continued to support me ever since. I’m deeply grateful for her compassion and guidance, and I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking thoughtful, effective, and empathetic support.” 'S'
