Lizzie Gilbert Counselling
 

About Lizzie - Qualifications and Experience

Choosing a counsellor is a personal decision, and it can be helpful to know a little about the person you may be working with.

I’m a BACP Registered and Accredited counsellor with 12 years experience, alongside extensive training in person-centred counselling and psychotherapy. I continue to develop my knowledge and and practice through ongoing professional development and reflective practice, so I can offer thoughtful, ethical and supportive care.

I believe good counselling begins with a genuine therapeutic relationship - one where you feel listened to, respected, and accepted for who you are. My aim is to create a safe, welcoming space where you can explore whats troubling you at your own pace, without judgement.
