About Elizabeth
Elizabeth "Liz" Pentz works from a person-centred approach that puts the client's experience at the heart of each session. She uses empathy and a non-judgemental presence to help people talk through difficult feelings and build inner resources. Sessions are 45 minutes long and happen over weeks or as the person prefers.
With four years' experience and membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), Liz focuses on stress, anxiety and depression. She also supports people dealing with grief, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and sleeping difficulties. Liz helps those facing career change, parenting strain, addictions and compassion fatigue.
Her work pays close attention to loss in many forms, including bereavement and the complex emotions that follow. She has experience supporting people who have experienced sexual or domestic abuse and helps them develop healthy coping strategies. Liz commonly addresses low self-esteem, attachment concerns and issues linked to ADHD and neurodiversity.
Liz blends person-centred listening with mindfulness and relaxation tools when useful. These techniques are offered as optional skills people can practise between sessions to manage stress and improve rest. The aim is to support people in finding what works for them rather than imposing a single solution.
Clients can expect a steady, respectful pace and a practical focus on building coping strategies. Liz emphasises collaboration and supports clients as they make changes that fit their life and values.
How her approaches translate to online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on giving the person space to tell their story and feel heard, helping them draw out their own solutions and build confidence. Mindfulness Therapy uses simple breathing and relaxation exercises to reduce stress and improve rest, which can be practised during and between sessions. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on supporting people who have experienced past harm, attending to the emotional impact and helping develop safer coping strategies.Deciding which approach fits best is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to identify priorities, try different methods and adjust as needed. Sessions are shaped by the client's needs, goals and preferences rather than following a fixed script.
Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions more easily into a busy day and reducing travel time. Online work can make it simpler to schedule short check-ins or longer sessions around work or family commitments. The exact session formats supported should be confirmed before booking, as current options are listed during the matching and scheduling steps.
