Liz Spencer , NCPS

Liz Spencer brings five years of experience as a counsellor working in the United Kingdom. She focuses on helping people make sense of their emotions and patterns, especially around relationships and self-worth. Her approach aims to help people feel heard and understood while they work through difficult moments.

She often explores attachment patterns to show how early experiences shape current reactions. That can help when relationship fears, commitment worries, or feelings of emptiness keep repeating. She also supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief and the fallout from trauma and abuse.

Sessions draw on client-centred therapy, which means the conversation follows the person and their priorities rather than a fixed script. Mindfulness techniques are used to help bring attention to the present and reduce overwhelm. These methods are used practically, with simple skills to try between meetings.

Liz offers help with career questions, life transitions, and issues such as codependency, jealousy, guilt, shame and problems with communication. She pays particular attention to women's issues, young adult concerns, and struggles around self-love and life purpose.

The first meetings focus on understanding what matters most and setting small, manageable goals. Over time the work supports greater emotional awareness, more reliable coping strategies, and clearer choices about relationships and direction in life.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in how people relate to others. It helps identify repeated reactions that cause difficulty in relationships and builds new ways to feel and respond. Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the heart of sessions. The counsellor follows the client’s lead, offering empathic listening and questions that help people sort out their own answers. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention skills that reduce overwhelming feelings and improve moment-to-moment calm.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Liz will discuss goals and preferences in early sessions and suggest which methods to try. This is a collaborative process and plans are adjusted as needs change.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video sessions are good for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be helpful when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer writing or need flexible, quick touchpoints between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, study and family commitments while keeping the focus on practical progress and emotional insight.
