About Elizabeth

Elizabeth Flynn offers an integrative, person-centred approach that draws on attachment ideas and cognitive behavioural techniques. She aims to create a steady, respectful space where people can talk through what feels difficult and start to make small, practical changes. Her BACP credential is shown as BACP in listings. Elizabeth is named here so people know who they will meet.

She has four years of practice as a counsellor and psychotherapist. Before private work she spent time supporting people in NHS mental health acute wards, CAMHS and forensic settings. That background informs how she listens for patterns and safety concerns in a client’s story.

In sessions she focuses on real-life issues such as stress, anxiety, depression and relationship strain. She also helps with addiction, grief, sleep and eating problems, and difficulties linked to attachment and abandonment. Men’s issues are listed among her areas of focus.

Elizabeth uses a mix of approaches so she can tailor sessions to a person’s needs. Cognitive behavioural ideas help spot unhelpful thought patterns. Attachment-based work looks at connection styles and how past relationships shape current ones.

She describes therapy as practical and goal-oriented when that fits a person’s needs. Many people come away with clearer steps to cope day to day and to move towards longer-term goals. To begin, readers are invited to follow the site's process to match and schedule a first appointment.

How these approaches shape online therapy

Elizabeth uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships influence present feelings and connections, which can help when patterns of trust or closeness cause repeated problems. Cognitive behavioural therapy focuses on spotting and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, which is useful for anxiety, low mood and practical coping challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Elizabeth will talk with each person about their goals and try different ways of working until a good fit emerges. That collaborative process means the plan can change as needs or priorities shift.

Practical benefits of online work should be checked before booking, as specific session formats are not listed in the biography. Many people find that remote sessions can fit more easily around work and family life, make it simpler to keep a regular schedule, or reduce travel time. If shorter check-ins or fewer visual demands would help, mention this when matching so options can be discussed and arranged.
