About Liz
Counsellor Liz Spencer is registered with the NCPS and has five years of practice in the United Kingdom. She focuses on attachment-related concerns and relationship patterns while also helping people manage stress, anxiety, grief and changes in life. Sessions use a client-centred framework and draw on mindfulness and attachment ideas to guide the work.
Liz helps people look at how past relationships affect present behaviour. She talks through attachment patterns, feelings of abandonment, and issues such as codependency or avoidant traits. This often includes noticing recurring reactions and working out different ways to respond in relationships.
Alongside relationship work, Liz supports people with low self-esteem, shame, guilt and feelings of emptiness. She also helps those facing career uncertainty, depression or grief following loss. Conversations aim to be plain and practical, with a focus on what the person wants to change.
Her style is grounded in client-centred counselling. That means the person’s perspective leads each session. Mindfulness techniques are offered to help with present-moment awareness and calming persistent worry.
In sessions Liz uses attachment-based ideas to map patterns and spot where past hurts influence current choices. She works collaboratively to set short-term goals and simple steps people can try between meetings.

How her approaches translate to online counselling
Attachment-based work looks at patterns formed in past relationships and shows how they affect current feelings and behaviour. It can help when people struggle with abandonment, commitment or repeated relationship conflicts. Client-centred counselling focuses on the person’s experience and follows what they bring to the session. This approach supports self-understanding and clearer decision making without imposing a set agenda. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce rumination and manage anxiety in day-to-day life.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Liz will explore which methods fit a person’s needs, goals and preferences. She treats that as a collaborative process and may combine elements from different approaches as the client and counsellor agree.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm session options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people choose quieter times around work or study and avoid needing to be on camera if that helps. Registered or accredited professionals can offer a flexible way to keep therapy going when life is otherwise full.
