About Liz

Liz Spencer is a counsellor who focuses on helping people untangle recurring emotional patterns. She brings five years of practice to sessions and works with adults on issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns and coping with life changes. Her work centres on attachment ideas and client‑centred care.

She helps people notice how early experiences shape current reactions. That can make it easier to choose different responses in relationships and daily life.

How Liz works

Liz also supports people dealing with grief, low self‑esteem and trauma or abuse. She helps clients name painful feelings like guilt, shame, emptiness and jealousy. Practical conversations aim to rebuild confidence and sense of purpose.

Additionally she addresses concerns such as abandonment, communication problems, codependency and commitment worries. Young adult issues and women's concerns are among the topics she sees commonly. Sessions include straightforward tools to manage anxiety and to steady mood during life transitions.

Her style is warm and non‑judgemental. Sessions are client‑centred and paced to each person’s needs. Liz works with mindfulness techniques alongside attachment‑based ideas to help people feel more present and in control.

People who want a calm, reflective space to talk things through may find her approach a good fit. She offers sessions in English and accepts international clients, with a range of online formats available.

Online support options

How attachment, client‑centred and mindfulness work online

Attachment‑based work helps people spot patterns in how they relate to others and to themselves. Online sessions enable a calm space to look at past experiences and how they shape reactions now, which can be useful for relationship worries, abandonment concerns and attachment issues.

Client‑centred therapy focuses on listening without judgement and following what matters most to the person. In practice this means sessions are paced around the client’s priorities and the counsellor reflects back what helps the person make sense of their feelings.

Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and manage anxiety. These techniques translate well to remote sessions and can be practised between meetings to steady mood and increase presence.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and help decide what fits best for a person’s goals, needs and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text‑based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversations and visual connection, phone calls can be a good option when bandwidth is limited, and text or chat works for shorter check‑ins or when people prefer typing. Together these options offer flexibility to fit therapy around work, study and family life.
