About Elizabeth
Elizabeth Harris works in a person-centred way and combines that with cognitive behavioural and psychodynamic ideas. She emphasises the client’s voice and wants people to feel able to speak honestly. She aims to make sessions feel straightforward and non-judgemental for anyone nervous about trying counselling for the first time.
Harris has five years of experience and holds the NCPS credential, which is given here as NCPS. She has helped people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, low mood, and problems with self-esteem.
Background and approach
She also supports people facing grief, career worries, parenting strain and challenges around relationships and intimacy. Her practice draws on attachment-based thinking alongside client-centred work. That means attention to how earlier relationships can shape current patterns, while the person’s current experience guides the pace and focus of sessions.
Cognitive behavioural techniques are offered to help spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. Sessions aim to help people clarify the size and effect of a difficulty and to identify practical steps that might help. Harris describes therapy as collaborative - she helps clients explore options and choose what fits them best.
She also speaks from experience as a former client, which she uses to make the room feel more approachable. People can expect calm, direct conversation and time to practise new thinking or behaviour between meetings. The emphasis is on honest listening, clearer thinking about problems, and hands-on ideas clients can try in daily life.

How Elizabeth works online
Elizabeth combines these approaches with practical cognitive behavioural ideas when needed. CBT offers simple exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviours between sessions. Together these approaches let conversations stay personal while also producing clear next steps to try outside sessions.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide what helps most based on their goals and preferences. Clients can expect to review progress and adjust methods as they go.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online working can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example sessions can be arranged around work breaks or reduce travel time. It can also allow shorter check-ins when a brief update is helpful, or quieter conversations if less visual contact is preferred.
