About Elizabeth
Elizabeth Gichuki is a BACP counsellor who offers relational and integrative therapy to adults. She works in English and Swahili and has six years of practice supporting people through anxiety, depression and relationship difficulties.
Her approach centres on building a therapeutic relationship where people feel heard. She uses person-centred listening alongside psychodynamic ideas that sometimes look at early experiences and inner-child themes. Sessions are conversational and tailored to what someone needs in the moment.
Elizabeth commonly helps people who are coping with grief, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem and ADHD. She also supports people dealing with work stress, career questions, sleep problems and intimacy-related concerns. Money and financial issues are included among the areas she addresses when they affect well-being.
She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based work and narrative methods when these fit a person’s goals. That means exploring values, relationships and the stories someone tells about their life to find more helpful ways forward.
Elizabeth describes therapy as a collaborative process. She helps people understand what keeps them stuck and works with them to build new patterns. To begin, people choose the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and then schedule sessions according to availability.
Approaches to online therapy and how they help
Elizabeth often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify what matters to them and take small steps in line with those values, which can be useful for anxiety, depression and career or relationship decisions. Attachment-Based Therapy is used to look at patterns in close relationships and how early experiences shape trust and intimacy, which helps when people struggle with connection or abandonment fears.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and together decide which methods to try. That means sessions can change over time as needs and priorities become clearer.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the specific session options before booking. The main practical advantage is flexibility - online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily life. They can also allow a quieter check-in, reduce travel time and make shorter appointments easier to arrange when needed. Registered or accredited professionals, including therapists on this site, can guide you through what will work best for your situation and goals.
