About Elizabeth

Elizabeth Davis is a counsellor who works with adults, children and teenagers facing stress, anxiety, trauma, grief and parenting challenges. She aims to make first contacts straightforward and practical, so people feel heard from the first session. Her style is calm and down-to-earth, helping clients set the pace and focus on what matters most to them.

Elizabeth trained as an integrative counsellor and is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She has an MA in Infant Mental Health and specialist qualifications related to birth trauma and working with young people. Over many years she has worked in community and voluntary settings alongside counselling roles in charities.

Her day-to-day work includes supporting parents with antenatal and postnatal concerns, helping people process birth-related trauma, and addressing bonding or attachment worries. She also offers help with common problems such as overwhelm, feelings of emptiness, communication issues and the stress of caring for others.

Elizabeth draws on a range of approaches so each session can be tailored to what a person needs. Sessions focus on building a respectful relationship, talking through immediate concerns, and finding simple steps that fit everyday life. She encourages people to take the pace that feels right and supports practical changes alongside emotional processing.

Many clients come because they want clearer ways to cope and better day-to-day functioning. Elizabeth aims to help people feel more able to handle life changes, strengthen relationships with children or partners, and find more purpose after loss or difficult events.

How different approaches work online and what to expect

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on creating an accepting space where the client guides what is discussed. It helps with feeling heard, building confidence, and deciding practical next steps for everyday problems. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and helps people understand how early bonds affect current relationships and parenting concerns.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, is more problem-focused and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. It can be useful for anxiety, stress and coping with life changes by setting small experiments and new routines.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The counsellor will talk through goals, preferences and what has worked for you before, then try methods that fit your needs. Sessions can mix approaches so work feels relevant and manageable rather than one-size-fits-all.

The profile does not list which session formats are offered, so please confirm current online options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, shorten travel time, and allow quieter check-ins when needed. It can also let people try talking therapy from a familiar routine while they and the counsellor work out which approach helps most.
