Liz Ackroyd, Counsellor in Bath, Bristol, Online, Phone, Telephone, Zoom, Doxy-me, Remote ,

People come to therapy for many different reasons. Some find themselves in crisis, suffering from profound distress, grief or loss. Others may be struggling with stressful, problematic day-to-day relationships at home or in the workplace. Or it may be that you find yourself caught up in limiting and repetitious patterns of behaviour that are damaging for you and maybe others, which you wish to explore with professional support. 

Whatever your reason for seeking help, I provide a safe, confidential space, in which to talk through difficult thoughts and feelings - to be understood and accepted without judgement.  I work with clients working through all kinds of difficulties including anxiety, depression, poor self-esteem and self-loathing, eating disorders, self-harming behaviours, sexual abuse, and chronic shame.  I have a particular personal interest and expertise in trauma work (including PTSD, Complex PTSD and dissociation), bereavement and grief work. 

I established my private practice in 2020 and tailor my support to you according to your individual and specific therapeutic needs. My approach is person-centred but I also pay close attention to past experience in the family, inter-relational psycho-dynamics and existential concerns to help my clients explore and understand themselves and how they can heal. 

I am a fully qualified and accredited Psychotherapeutic Counsellor. My standard hourly rate in 2023 is £65 but can vary according to the nature of the client's presenting issues, affordability considerations and our mode of working together - I charge less for clients who choose to work on a remote basis either online or by phone. I also offer lower cost sessions sometimes, subject to availability and by individual agreement.
