About Elizabeth
Elizabeth Flynn uses a blend of attachment-focused work and practical therapies to help people manage emotional pain and day-to-day struggles. She speaks plainly and aims to make sessions feel approachable for someone who is anxious or unsure about therapy. Elizabeth holds BACP accreditation, which appears after her name in professional listings.
Her approach focuses on connection and patterns from early relationships. She helps people notice how past attachments shape current reactions and relationships.
How Elizabeth works
She also uses techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of responding. Elizabeth draws on four years of practice supporting people with stress, anxiety and depression. Her background includes work in NHS mental health settings and personal organisations with adults experiencing a range of difficulties.
That experience informs how she works with trauma, addictions and complex emotional issues. Practical goals matter in her sessions. People come away with short, doable steps to try between meetings.
Conversations cover coping strategies for sleep, eating and anger, as well as ways to rebuild confidence and purpose. She is comfortable working with concerns around relationships, parenting pressures, grief and identity issues including LGBT matters. Sessions are offered in English and she is available to people in the United Kingdom and internationally.

How attachment work and CBT translate to online therapy
Attachment-based work looks at the ways early relationships shape how people respond now. Online sessions can use gentle conversation and reflective exercises to notice those patterns and try new ways of relating. Cognitive behavioural therapy focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing different actions; that approach fits well with clear between-session tasks and short exercises discussed over video or messaging.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, past experiences and day-to-day needs, and together they will choose which methods to use. This is a collaborative decision and can change as things progress.
Online formats offer practical choices. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and observing non-verbal cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging are handy for brief check-ins, quick problem-solving and for people who find written communication easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family life and different time zones, while still using attachment and CBT techniques in meaningful ways.
