My therapeutic approach

Discover the foundation of my work at Elizabeth Hughes Counselling. I believe in building a strong, supportive relationship with each client to foster healing and personal growth. Learn about my methods, commitment to your well-being, and what makes our approach uniquely effective.

Building a strong foundation

Ensuring a good fit between counsellor and client is crucial for building a strong rapport and a successful therapeutic relationship. I offer a free 15-minute phone consultation to understand your needs and goals for counselling. This also gives you an opportunity to ask any questions you have about my approach and background, ensuring we are the right fit for your journey.

My areas of expertise

I'm  skilled in helping individuals navigate various challenges, including depression, anxiety, grief, difficult life transitions, relationship issues, and workplace burnout (with a particular focus on health disciplines, drawing from my experience as a retired nurse).  I offer a trauma-informed, inclusive, compassionate and non-judgmental space for all clients. Your well-being is my priority.

Your journey to growth

Your journey begins with a free 15-minute initial phone call to discuss why you are seeking counselling. We will explore your goals and determine if we are a good fit.

Should you decide to proceed, our initial session will cover your needs and potential goals, confidentiality boundaries, and how we will work together. You will share your thoughts, while we listen and ask helpful questions in a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental space.  I will  encourage you to observe and explore your personal patterns and feelings. Feeling secure while engaging in difficult topics and self-reflection will enable you to communicate openly and make significant progress.
