Elizabeth Burgess

Elizabeth Burgess is a counsellor with more than a decade of practice in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP accreditation and has spent 13 years helping people who are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma and low self-esteem. Elizabeth also focuses on grief and coping with major life changes, including hospice and end-of-life counselling.

She aims to create an open space where people can speak about hard things without fear of judgement. Sessions are straightforward and paced to match each person’s needs. Elizabeth encourages small, steady steps that build confidence and clearer thinking.

In the room she pays attention to relationships and how they shape feelings and behaviour. That relational focus helps people understand patterns that keep them stuck. She uses practical conversation and reflection to help people try new ways of relating to themselves and others.

Clients typically work on manageable goals such as reducing panic, naming triggers, coping with loss, or rebuilding self-worth after difficult events. Elizabeth offers support through transitions and the emotional strains that come with them. Her approach is calm and respectful, aiming to make change feel possible rather than overwhelming.

If someone is thinking about counselling, Elizabeth asks that they be ready to talk openly about what matters most to them. She works at a steady pace and helps people plan the next steps they need to take.

Attachment focus and online counselling options

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships shape how people feel and respond to stress. It helps when someone notices repeated patterns in relationships, trouble with trust, or difficulty calming down after conflict. The approach uses conversation to identify these patterns and to try different ways of responding that feel safer and more effective.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Elizabeth will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. Together they look at what feels helpful, adjust pace, and agree on practical tasks between sessions to build new skills.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current online options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives, reduce travel time, and allow quicker check-ins on difficult days. It can also suit people who prefer to speak from a familiar setting or who need shorter, more frequent contact. Registered or accredited professionals can help adapt the work to each person’s routine and needs.
