Elizabeth Pearson

Everyone who comes to counselling brings something different: a specific problem, a general sense of being stuck, or just curiosity about themselves. Wherever you're starting from, my aim is to help you understand more about what's going on for you, not just get through it.

I work integratively, with Transactional Analysis (TA) as my foundation. I choose what to draw on based on what's actually useful for you, rather than working to a fixed method.

TA is particularly useful for spotting patterns: the things you find yourself doing or feeling on repeat. Whether that's in relationships, at work, in social settings or in how you talk to yourself. Once a pattern has a name, you get more choice over whether it keeps showing up.

I take a trauma-informed approach, which in plain terms means going at your pace, checking in regularly, and not pushing you towards anything before you're ready.

Being accepted as you are now and wanting something different for yourself aren't in conflict. Both are welcome here.

Elizabeth Grace is a private psychotherapeutic counselling practice offering integrative therapy with a Transactional Analysis foundation.

I see clients in person and online. Sessions are 50 minutes, usually weekly to begin with (though we can talk about what rhythm works for you).

Before we start working together, we'll have an initial conversation so you can get a feel for how I work and ask any questions. There's no obligation to continue after this.

I work with a wide range of things people bring to counselling, including anxiety, low mood, relationship difficulties, self-esteem, and life transitions. 

For those looking for it, I also have a particular interest in women's health, particularly Lipoedema and Endometriosis. 

Confidentiality is central to how I work. What you bring to sessions stays between us, within the usual professional and legal limits, which I'm happy to explain in our first conversation.

If you're not sure whether counselling is right for you, or whether I'm the right fit, please get in touch. I'm happy to answer questions before you commit to anything.
