About Lizandra

Lizandra Leigertwood is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship friction and trauma. She works with adults who want clearer boundaries, better self-esteem, or relief from past abuse. Her manner is calm and respectful, and she aims to create a place where clients can speak openly about what matters to them.

With 14 years of experience, Lizandra draws on approaches that look at how early relationships shape current patterns.

Background and approach

She pays attention to attachment wounds, codependency and issues that come from difficult parenting. Sessions are practical and paced to each person, so conversations focus on what feels most urgent and what can be changed one step at a time. Lizandra uses client-centred listening so people feel heard and guided rather than judged.

She also works with psychodynamic ideas to notice repeating patterns that cause pain. Existential questions about meaning, choice and responsibility are raised when they suit the client's concerns. Common topics she supports include grief, intimacy-related worries, sleep problems, panic attacks, workplace strain and compassion fatigue.

She also helps people struggling with abandonment fears, communication problems and family of origin issues. The work aims to build self-love and practical coping skills as well as insight. Based in the United Kingdom, Lizandra is registered with BACP and NCPS.

She offers conversations in English and can work with international clients by online formats. To begin, a simple matching process helps connect people to her practice and schedule sessions that fit their life.

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Therapeutic approaches and online session options

Lizandra commonly draws on attachment-based and client-centred approaches. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people change repeating behaviour that harms relationships. Client-centred work focuses on listening and following the client's pace, helping people feel heard and understood so they can decide what they want to change.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work itself. She will discuss different ways of working and together decide what fits your goals and preferences. That collaborative planning makes it easier to adjust focus as issues evolve or new concerns emerge.

Online therapy can be flexible and practical. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can suit lower bandwidth or give a shorter check-in, and live chat or text-based messaging can be useful for brief reflections between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family and travel while keeping continuity of care with registered or accredited professionals.
