Elizabeth 'Liz' Billing, NCPS

Elizabeth draws on evidence-based techniques that help people understand and change how they think and act. Cognitive behavioural approaches look at the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and teach practical exercises to reduce anxiety or low mood. These techniques often suit people needing clear steps to manage symptoms.

She also works with attachment-informed ideas that focus on how early relationships shape present-day connections. This helps people who notice repeating patterns in relationships or who feel stuck in familiar cycles of distance or fear. Together these approaches address both immediate coping and deeper relational patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences and adapt methods over time. They make decisions together about whether to use more structured exercises or a looser, reflective conversation style.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual contact helps, phone sessions suit those with lower bandwidth or who prefer not to be on camera, and live chat or text messaging can support shorter check-ins or ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or other commitments while keeping the focus on progress and accessibility.
