Elizabeth Kew

Hello, my name is Elizabeth/Lizzie (She/Her)

I am a fully qualified integrative counsellor and psychotherapist, working in person, online and over the phone across the UK and internationally.

My personal experience with therapy revealed to me the profound benefits of feeling truly seen, heard, and understood, and how transformative that can be. I aim to provide this same support to you and would be honoured to be a part of your journey.

I began my clinical work at Islington Mind, providing tailored, integrative face-to-face counselling. This involved working with complex psychological, emotional and mental health issues including personality disorders, schizophrenia and autism. Other areas that were often explored involved identity and LGBTQIA+ related concerns.

I have experience as an associate counsellor at St. Mary's Hospital, offering in person therapy for the NHS staff working in the sexual health clinic which offers immediate testing, treatment and advice for STI’s.

Prior to my counselling and psychotherapy practice, I volunteered at The Listening Place, a charity that offers face-to-face support for those who feel life is no longer worth living.

I believe that one size does not fit all and so my approach offers flexibility to suit your individual needs. We will work collaboratively to identify links, patterns and themes to help you develop a greater understanding of yourself whilst also working towards a more meaningful and purposeful future with more choice a possibility for personal growth and change.

My therapeutic approach can be described as integrative, blending a holistic approach with Psychodynamic, Existential, Humanistic theory and practice that best support your needs. Anything that you choose to bring is what will be explored, at a pace that is both appropriate and effective for your needs. I will listen to your unique story, explore what you want to gain from therapy and tailor my approach to meet you where you are at.

I offer open-ended and short and long-term therapy in person, online, over the phone and message based across the UK and internationally.

I offer a free 15-minute no obligation introductory phone call to discuss your reasons for seeking therapy and explore how we may work together. This gives you the opportunity to decide if you feel that the relationship is right for you.

I offer open-ended or short and long-term therapy online, over the phone and message based. We can discuss the best approach for you during our initial call.

If we choose to work together, we would typically arrange to meet weekly in person in Leyton, East London, online, by phone call or via a message based app at an agreed time for a 50-minute session.

I provide short and long-term, time-limited and open-ended in-person, online and telephone therapy sessions.

I currently have availabilty for online and in-person therapy in Leyton, E10 on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday.

Hello, my name is Elizabeth/Lizzie (She/Her). I am a fully qualified BACP registered integrative therapist, working in person, online and over the phone across the UK and internationally. 

My approach is client-led and non-directive. Anything that you choose to bring is what will be explored, at a pace that is both appropriate and effective for your needs. I will listen to your unique story, explore what you want to gain from therapy and tailor my approach to meet you where you are at. 

I began my clinical work at Islington Mind whereby I provided integrative counselling. This included working with complex psychological/emotional/mental health problems such as those with borderline personality disorder, schizophrenia and autism. 

I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Counselling at the University of East London, a degree accredited by the BACP.

I also volunteered for two years at The Listening Place, a charity that offers face-to-face support for those who feel life is no longer worth living. 

I have a background in yoga teaching with a keen interest in somatic and the mind/body connection. I have a holistic approach alongside using various theory and practice from psychodynamic, existential and person centred therapy. 

My counselling training included personal research on making meaning of the challenging experiences following the use of psilocybin and its impact on my counselling journey. 

Personal therapy can be challenging and revealing, talking about experiences that cause pain, sadness or embarrassment can be difficult. I believe that if you feel listened to without fear of being judged, working in a trusted relationship can encourage real long-lasting change.

We will work collaboratively to identify links, patterns and themes to help you to develop a greater understanding of yourself. My therapeutic approach can be described as integrative, blending  a holistic approach with Psychodynamic, Existential, Humanistic theory and practice that best support your needs.
