About Elizabeth
Elizabeth Cooper is a counsellor who focuses on helping adults manage relationship problems, grief, anxiety and parenting concerns. She writes in a warm, approachable way and aims to build a trusting relationship so people can feel heard and understood. Her style is practical and person-focused, helping clients find clearer ways of coping and relating.
Elizabeth uses a relational way of working that looks at how early attachments shape current patterns.
Background and approach
She helps people recognise automatic responses and make small changes that reduce distress. Sessions combine talking, reflection and practical strategies tailored to each person’s needs. She draws on a mix of therapy approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based ideas and Emotionally-Focused work to address issues such as self-esteem, compassion fatigue and intimacy-related concerns.
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy skills are used when emotional regulation is a priority. Elizabeth trained in counselling and has eight years of clinical experience. She has worked across health and education settings, including hospitals, community health visiting, rehabilitation and bereavement services.
This varied background informs a holistic view of wellbeing. Clients can expect an unhurried, collaborative pace. Elizabeth aims to help people access their own insight and develop practical tools.
She does not offer quick fixes but supports steady, sustainable change.

How relational approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice their thoughts and values, and take small steps toward what matters. It suits people feeling stuck by anxiety, low mood or life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early connections shape present relationships and helps people recognise and change repeating patterns that cause pain. Elizabeth will work collaboratively to find the best approach for each person. She starts by listening to your goals and preferences, then recommends ways of working that fit your situation. That process can change over time as needs shift, and she adjusts the approach together with you. Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls make it possible to meet face to face when travel is difficult or time is limited. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is low or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging provide brief check-ins, ongoing support between sessions, or a way to communicate when a shorter intervention is required. Many people find the flexibility of multiple formats helps them stick with therapy and apply what they learn in daily life. Registered or accredited professionals, including therapists who use relational and skills-based methods, can adapt exercises and interventions to work well across these online formats.Questions people ask about Elizabeth
