Elizabeth Brereton, BACP, NCPS

Elizabeth Brereton is a United Kingdom based therapist who brings six years of clinical experience and a calm, nonjudgmental approach to her work. She is a member of the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) and an accredited member of the NCPS (an accredited professional organisation), and she draws on that professional grounding to support people through difficult life moments.

She works with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse in its many forms, grief, addictions such as sex and porn dependence, anger, low self esteem, relationship and LGBT issues, ADHD, and the challenges that come with life transitions and career change. Her practice also addresses complex personal themes such as attachment and abandonment, family of origin difficulties, neurodiversity including Asperger syndrome, and experiences of domestic violence or bullying.

Elizabeth’s style is rooted in humanistic and person-centered principles that prioritize the person in the room. She combines that core stance with practical methods when appropriate, drawing on cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-focused therapy, and motivational interviewing to tailor work to each individual’s needs. She emphasizes listening, acceptance, and guiding rather than directing so that clients can find their own path forward.

At over 60 years of age, she describes her life experience as an asset that brings steadiness and perspective to the therapeutic relationship. Elizabeth emphasizes respect and a nonjudgmental presence, aiming to support and empower people either to change or to accept aspects of themselves depending on their goals. She offers sessions in English and is accepting clients both in the United Kingdom and internationally. Appointments are available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging depending on availability.
