About Liz

Liz Spencer is a counsellor in the United Kingdom with five years of practice. She uses attachment ideas to help people notice how early relationships shape current feelings. Liz helps clients untangle stress, anxiety and relationship struggles so they can make clearer choices about next steps.

She keeps sessions client-centred and calm. That means listening first, then gently guiding conversations so people feel heard. Practical tools and simple mindfulness practices are offered when they fit the person’s goals.

Liz works with people dealing with grief, low self-esteem, depression, life changes and career concerns. She also supports those facing trauma and abuse, and common relationship issues such as jealousy, infidelity and communication problems.

There is attention to attachment-related themes like abandonment, avoidant patterns and feelings of emptiness. Conversations aim to increase self-awareness and reduce repeating painful patterns in relationships.

Therapy here mixes talking, reflective exercises and short mindfulness tasks that clients can use between sessions. Sessions are paced to each person’s needs so progress feels manageable rather than overwhelming.

How attachment work and mindfulness translate online

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in close relationships and how early experiences shape current responses. It helps people spot repeating habits in relationships and practise different ways of relating.

Client-Centred Therapy centres on being heard without judgement. This approach gives people space to tell their story while the counsellor follows the client’s pace and priorities.

Mindfulness Therapy brings simple attention exercises into everyday life. These practices can help reduce anxiety, manage strong emotions and support calmer decision-making.

Choosing the right approach is usually collaborative. The counsellor will talk through what feels most relevant and try methods that suit the person’s goals and comfort. Plans are adjusted as work progresses so the approach fits the client not the other way around.

Practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions into daily routines and reducing travel time. Online work can make it simpler to have shorter check-ins, schedule around work hours, or use exercises between meetings.
