About Lizzie
Lizzie Hayes is an NCPS counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 15 years of professional experience. She works with people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, anger and depression. Lizzie also focuses on concerns such as social anxiety and phobia, panic attacks, attachment issues and isolation.
She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people understand what keeps a problem going and to develop clear steps to manage it. In sessions she helps clients name stressful thought patterns, try behavioural changes and practice skills that reduce panic and worry. Conversations are straightforward and paced to suit each person.
Lizzie often supports people who are dealing with shame, guilt, body image worries or the fallout of difficult relationships. She offers practical ways to improve communication, set boundaries and handle anger more effectively. She also helps people work through feelings of abandonment and questions about life purpose.
Over her fifteen years she has worked across different settings in the UK and developed ways to help people regain steadier footing after loss or trauma. She combines focused talking work with simple exercises that can be used between sessions. The aim is to make day-to-day life feel more manageable.

Therapeutic approaches and working online
Many of Lizzie's sessions use evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on thoughts, behaviours and practical skills. One approach looks at how unhelpful thoughts keep anxiety and panic active and helps people practise noticing and changing those thoughts. Another approach focuses on gradual behavioural steps - testing small changes in social situations to reduce avoidance and build confidence over time.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Lizzie will discuss different ways of working and decide together what matches the person's goals, needs and comfort level. That collaborative decision can change as progress is made.
The practical benefits of online sessions include fitting therapy into a busy week and making it easier to join from different locations.
