Elizabeth Lockwood

I currently have availability for a small number of new clients on a Thursday or Friday. I may be able to offer additional availability for online counselling at other times.

Hi I'm Liz. Welcome. If you're feeling anxious, depressed, burned out or lost I can offer warmth and empathy as you step away from the busy rush of life and explore how you are feeling.

I offer counselling to over 18s, both face-to-face and online. I trained as a person-centred counsellor (CPCAB Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling) and work for a local counselling charity as well as in private practice. 

As a person-centred counsellor, I believe we all have the innate ability to find the right path for ourselves if we feel truly heard and accepted. This means that in our counselling sessions I won't tell you what to do, but will offer the space, my focused attention and (if appropriate) some useful tools to support you.

I work mainly with clients struggling with anxiety and depression, often as a result of the stresses of balancing work and home life. I also work with clients facing big changes in their life such as bereavement, retirement or redundancy.

I offer a free 20-minute phone / online initial consultation. In this consultation I ask for some background information about you.  We would discuss your needs and expectations from counselling and decide whether we could work well together.
