About Lizzie

Lizzie Hayes is an NCPS counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 15 years of experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, anger and depression. She speaks English and accepts international clients.

Her work focuses on practical, straightforward conversations about what is causing distress. She helps people name strong feelings and notice patterns that keep problems repeating. Sessions aim to be direct and useful, not full of jargon.

Lizzie has supported people through loss and post-traumatic stress responses. She also helps with panic, social anxiety and issues around guilt, shame and isolation. She pays attention to attachment and abandonment concerns that affect current relationships.

People who struggle with control issues, communication problems or midlife shifts find her approach useful. She talks through ways to manage anger and reduce its impact at work and at home. She also covers body image, self-love and forgiveness as part of wider emotional work.

Her practice uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions. Clients are invited to set clear goals and try practical strategies between meetings. To start, clients use a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session through the service. Sessions are billed through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

Approaches used in online sessions

Lizzie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on the here-and-now and on learning skills to manage strong emotions. One approach helps people recognise triggers and bodily signs of anger and anxiety, then practise calmer responses. This is useful for panic, workplace frustration and recurring outbursts.

Another strand of her work addresses trauma and grief with careful pacing and clear steps. This helps people process difficult memories and reduce their emotional hold, while also supporting recovery from loss and post-traumatic stress reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lizzie will discuss options with each person and agree on methods that fit their goals and preferences. Treatment choices are collaborative and adapt as progress is made.
