About Lizzie
Lizzie Hayes is a counsellor with 15 years of professional experience in the UK. She works with people facing stress, anxiety and depression. She also helps those coping with trauma, grief, anger and relationship strain. Lizzie aims to make beginning therapy a straightforward, supported step for anyone feeling overwhelmed.
Her approach is practical and grounded. She creates an open space where people can talk about difficult thoughts and feelings without judgement. Sessions focus on understanding what is happening for the person now and on finding manageable ways to cope day to day.
Lizzie draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to each person’s needs. She listens for patterns such as attachment wounds, abandonment fears, guilt and shame, or problems with communication and control. Then she works with clients to set practical goals and small experiments to test different ways of managing situations.
She is experienced supporting people with panic disorder and panic attacks, social anxiety and phobias, and post-traumatic stress. Lizzie also helps with issues around body image, life purpose and isolation. Her style is calm and direct, focusing on clear steps that fit into busy lives.
Sessions are offered in English from the United Kingdom and international clients are accepted. Starting involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first appointment. The aim is to help people move toward more stability and clearer choices in daily life.
How evidence-based techniques can work online
Many of the approaches Lizzie uses are evidence-based methods that focus on reducing symptoms and improving daily coping. One example is techniques that help people manage anxiety and panic by learning how the body and mind respond to stress and practising ways to reduce those responses. These techniques often involve short exercises and simple steps to try between sessions.Another common strand is work on attachment and relational patterns. This looks at how early relationship experiences can shape current worries about abandonment, communication problems or feeling isolated. Sessions encourage noticing patterns and testing new ways of relating to others and to oneself.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will listen to your goals and preferences and help decide which techniques to try. This is a collaborative process with room to adjust methods if something does not feel helpful.
The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into busy schedules and reducing travel time.
