Liz was very attentive of my needs and what I hoped to achieve through therapy and counselling. Liz was flexible with her approach as my schedule tends to be all over the place. She has helped greatly to move ahead with my life and issues.

Has let me just talk about what I want to talk about, following just that right path and asking questions, as well as pointing out different points of view on thoughts. Patient and a great listener. She has helped my confidence in places where there were none.
