About Elize

Elize Jonathan is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with five years of experience and a BACP registration. She aims to make the first steps into therapy feel straightforward and honest. Her style is warm and direct, and she encourages people to notice the strengths they already have.

She helps with a wide range of concerns including stress and anxiety, depression, grief and bereavement, and anger. She also supports people facing addictions, family conflict, sleep difficulties, eating worries, and the challenges of coping with life changes.

Background and approach

Parenting is one of the areas she focuses on, alongside work and career pressures and compassion fatigue. Sessions tend to be practical and focused. She invites clients to name small, achievable goals and to develop everyday strategies that fit their life.

Conversations usually look at patterns that keep problems going, and then test new ways of responding. Elize works with LGBT concerns, bipolar mood difficulties, ADHD and relationship strain, offering calm, non-judgemental space to talk things through. Her approach values the client as expert in their own story while the counsellor offers tools and perspective.

She describes the early work as a chance to build clarity and momentum. Over time, clients often practise new skills between meetings so progress can feel steady and manageable. The practical focus makes sessions useful for people who want clear steps as well as emotional support.

Online support

How online therapy and practical approaches work together

Elize uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear steps and skills people can use between sessions. One common approach is behavioural work which helps people test small changes in daily routines and habits to reduce anxiety, improve sleep, or manage urges related to addictions. Another is problem-focused talking that helps name patterns, set short goals and practise new responses to difficult situations.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. She collaborates with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, preferences and practical needs. That means trying things, reviewing what helps, and adjusting the plan as work progresses so it stays relevant and useful.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let people use face-to-face conversation without travel. Phone sessions work well for shorter check-ins or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer writing or need brief, frequent support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, parenting and everyday life.
