Elizabeth Michael

My working hours in Brighton are Mondays and Fridays. I am also able to offer appointments over Zoom on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. 

I also see clients in person in my premises in Chichester, typically on Wednesdays, and have access to a wheelchair accessible space in Chichester.

Sessions are 50 minutes long and typically weekly.

Hello, my name is Liz and my pronouns are she/her.

My experience includes working with anxiety, depression, feelings of self-hate, compulsive behaviours, difficulties arising from neurodiversity, grief, loss, bereavement, relationship breakdown, abuse, suicidal thoughts, and identity. Often, clients feel that they are, in some way, at odds with the world, and feel troubled by this.

I am passionate about providing access to therapy for trans and gender non-conforming folk, regardless of whether an exploration of gender is your reason for seeking therapy. I provide an LGBTQ+ safe space.

I aim to provide a place where you are heard and where together we can explore your experience, difficulties and feelings, a process which can help you to better understand yourself, to make meaning, and to find ways in which to live better.

My training included a wide variety of approaches, with a special focus on existential psychotherapy. This is an approach which considers how we live, how we relate to one another and what it means to be human, all of which are often a source of anxiety. As well as having worked as a therapist within a general counselling service, I have worked as a volunteer with Cruse Bereavement Care and Maytree Respite Care for people in suicidal crisis.

Prior to becoming a therapist, I had a long corporate career in a professional services firm, including experience of working in the City, and I understand first-hand the pressures that such a life often holds.

I am registered with the BACP and accredited with the UKCP.

I offer a free initial consultation over Zoom of up to 30 minutes. You will have the opportunity to tell me a bit about yourself and why you are seeking therapy, and to ask me questions about how we might work together.
