About Elizabeth
Elizabeth Cockram is a counsellor with 15 years of professional experience. She welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, relationship problems or big life changes. Elizabeth aims to make the first steps into therapy straightforward and kind to nervous callers.
She uses a blend of practical and relational approaches. Sessions often focus on improving communication, managing intense emotions, and building coping skills for day-to-day life. Elizabeth draws on methods such as cognitive behavioural ideas, attachment-based thinking and mindfulness to shape sessions around each person’s needs.
Background and approach
Her background includes work within social services and the NHS, and she has run a independent practice. This mix has given her experience with a wide range of concerns including grief, trauma, addictions, eating and sleep issues, and difficulties linked to parenting and intimate relationships.
Elizabeth also works with people from LGBT communities and helps those dealing with chronic illness, chronic pain or cancer related distress. She pays attention to patterns that come from adoption, abandonment or attachment issues and can support people navigating separation or blended family challenges.
She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, often uses short-term coaching approaches when helpful, and adapts session style to what each person needs. Therapy sessions are offered in English and can be arranged online or by phone for flexibility.

Approaches used online and how they help
Elizabeth often draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to help people spot and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns. CBT-style work is practical and can help with anxiety, low mood, sleep problems and some forms of compulsive behaviour.She also uses attachment-based thinking to look at how earlier relationships shape current patterns. That approach helps when repeating relational cycles, coping with abandonment or rebuilding trust in intimate connections.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels doable, then recommend ways of working that fit those needs. This is a collaborative process and can be adjusted over time if something is not helping.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different lives. Video sessions are useful when visual connection matters, phone calls need less bandwidth, chat can work for short check-ins, and messaging fits people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, parenting and travel.
