Elizabeth Kew

I provide short-term, time-limited and open-ended, online and telephone therapy sessions.

Hello, my name is Elizabeth/Lizzie (She/They). I am a BACP registered integrative therapist, working online and over the phone across the UK. 

My approach is client-led and non-directive. Anything that you choose to bring is what will be explored, at a pace that is both appropriate and effective for your needs. I will listen to your unique story, explore what you want to gain from therapy and tailor my approach to meet you where you are at. 

I began my clinical work at Islington Mind whereby I provided integrative counselling which included working with complex psychological/emotional/mental health problems such as those with borderline personality disorder, schizophrenia and autism. 

I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Counselling at the University of East London, a degree accredited by the BACP.

I also volunteered for two years at The Listening Place, a charity that offers face-to-face support for those who feel life is no longer worth living. 

I have a background in yoga teaching with a keen interest in somatic and the mind/body connection. I have a holistic approach alongside using various theory and practice. 

My counselling training included personal research on making meaning of the challenging experiences following psychedelic use and its impact on counselling. 

Personal therapy can be challenging and revealing, talking about experiences that cause pain, sadness or embarrassment can be difficult. I believe that if you feel listened to without fear of being judged, working in a trusted relationship can encourage real long-lasting change.

We will work collaboratively to identify links, patterns and themes to help you to develop a greater understanding of yourself. 

My therapeutic approach can be described as integrative, blending  a holistic approach with Psychodynamic, Existential, Humanistic theory and practice that best support your needs. 

I offer a free 20-minute introduction session via the telephone to discuss your reasons for seeking therapy. This gives you the opportunity to decide if you would be keen to work with me.

If we choose to work together, we would typically arrange to meet weekly online via Zoom at an agreed time for a 50-minute session.

I offer concessionary rates for students, trainees and those on low income. Please let me know so we can discuss this in the introductory call.
