Liz Martin

I am an accomplished and experienced therapist, having worked in the addiction and related field since 2004. I have worked with a wonderful variety of clients during this time, in both private and criminal justice settings.

I have extensive knowledge of addiction, alcoholism, codependency, love addiction, trauma, and eating disorders.

I am a compassionate, understanding, and reflective therapist. I adopt a calm and positive outlook upon life, and this reflects itself in providing a safe and non-judgemental connection with my clients. I also possess a well-developed sense of humour, which I believe is an essential ingredient in any therapeutic alliance. 

I believe we possess the answers within ourselves.  I will help you to explore unhelpful patterns of thinking or behaviour, and support you as you make the changes needed to bring about a life you did not know was possible. 

I hold a Masters Degree in Addiction Psychology and Counselling. 

I have trained with Pia Mellody in Arizona (author of Facing Codependence, Facing Love Addiction), and have co-facilitated Trauma Reduction programmes (PIT) in London. I am a qualified EFT Practitioner (Emotional Freedom Technique also known as 'Tapping'), and an Eating Disorder Practitioner, having trained with Deanne Jade at NCED.  I am currently training as an EMDR Therapist.

I work with either individuals or family members on a one-to-one basis. I have experience co-facilitating Family programmes, and have experience as a live-in Case Manager and Sober Companion.  My experience has been gained in both the private and public sectors.

I am currently working remotely, and offer sessions via zoom.
