About Elizabeth
Elizabeth Mckenzie is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She works with people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety or low mood. She also supports those coping with relationship strain, trauma and issues around self-esteem and confidence.
Her approach is warm and respectful. Conversations are shaped to each person’s needs, and plans are adjusted as progress is made. She emphasises practical steps alongside talking, so sessions generally include discussion and tried ways to manage difficult feelings.
Background and approach
Elizabeth integrates ideas from attachment work, client-centred therapy and cognitive behavioural techniques. That means she pays attention to how relationships affect feelings, listens without judgement, and helps people spot thoughts and behaviours that keep problems going. She also draws on emotionally focused and psychodynamic perspectives when helpful.
These approaches are used to make sense of emotional patterns and past experiences that continue to cause pain in everyday life. People meet her to work on grief, eating and body-image concerns, communication problems, anger, parenting strains and life transitions. She can also help with ADHD-related challenges, social anxiety and post-traumatic stress.
Starting therapy is framed as a collaborative process, with the client’s goals guiding each step.

How Elizabeth works online
Choosing the best approach is part of the work. Elizabeth will discuss what feels most useful and try approaches that match a person’s goals and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can change as therapy moves forward.
If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the exact session formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also lets some people use video or audio to suit their comfort and energy levels. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often find these practical benefits help people maintain regular contact while they work on their goals.
