About Lizzie

Lizzie Hayes is a counsellor with 15 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with people who are coping with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, anger and depression. She aims to create an open, non-judgemental space where thoughts and feelings can be shared and heard.

Her background includes long-term practice supporting people through loss and emotional upheaval. She helps clients talk through panic attacks, post-traumatic stress and social anxiety in clear, practical ways.

Background and approach

Conversations focus on what is happening now and what steps feel achievable next. Sessions often address attachment and abandonment worries, problems with self-worth, and struggles around control and communication. She also supports people dealing with body image, guilt and shame, and the strain of isolation or loneliness.

Work can cover life purpose, midlife transitions and men's issues when these come up. Lizzie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions. Her approach is collaborative - she listens, reflects, and suggests strategies that clients can try between meetings.

She encourages small, practical changes that add up over time. Clients can expect a straightforward, compassionate style. Lizzie emphasises steady progress rather than quick fixes.

She invites people to take the first step and explore what a more balanced life could look like.

Focus areas and approaches

Everything Lizzie lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

How evidence-based approaches fit into online therapy

Lizzie draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical steps and clear conversation. One approach helps people process traumatic memories and reduce the intensity of distressing reactions through paced discussion and grounding strategies. Another approach focuses on anxiety and panic by teaching breathing, restructuring fearful thoughts and building gradual exposure to feared situations when that feels safe.

Deciding which approach to use is collaborative. The therapist will work with each person to identify what feels most useful based on their needs, goals and preferences. Sessions start by establishing priorities and then try methods that suit the person’s pace and comfort level, adjusting as progress is made.

Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls let a person see and hear their counsellor for a full conversational session. Phone sessions work well when a quieter or lower-bandwidth option is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging allow shorter check-ins, reflection between sessions and support that fits around work or family commitments. These options make it easier for people to sustain regular work on their concerns even with a busy schedule.
