About Elizabeth
Elizabeth "Lizz" Benton is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with four years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She helps people cope with relationship problems, family conflict, parenting challenges, low self-esteem, stress, anxiety and life transitions. Lizz also works with issues around intimacy, sleep disturbance, anger and career-related stress.
Her approach blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), attachment-based work and client-centred methods. She uses simple, practical strategies alongside conversations that focus on values, thoughts and behaviour. Sessions tend to be straightforward and focused on small, manageable steps.
Clients can expect a conversational style that invites honesty and practical problem-solving. Lizz pays attention to how relationships and attachment patterns shape current struggles. She offers mindfulness techniques and CBT-style tools to help with stress, anxiety and sleep problems.
She has additional experience supporting people who face long-term health challenges, codependency, communication problems, separation and the emotional effects of trauma and disasters. That background informs how she plans realistic strategies and coping skills with each person.
Working with Lizz begins with a short matching questionnaire and a scheduled first session. Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and she accepts international clients. Sessions are held in English.
How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to notice thoughts and pick actions that match their values. It can help with feeling stuck, loss of motivation and life transitions by focusing on what matters and taking small steps. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and offers practical exercises for anxiety, sleep problems and stress. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on relationship patterns and how early attachment affects current relationships and intimacy issues.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each client to choose methods that suit their goals, preferences and life situation. That might mean trying a mindfulness exercise one week and a CBT technique the next, then adjusting based on what helps.
