About me
Hi, I am Lizzy, a qualified counsellor and psychotherapist working in the Harrogate and Leeds area.
“Being safe is about being seen and heard and allowed to be who you are and to speak your truth”
Rachel Naomi Remen
My beliefs are:
- All human beings have the capacity for personal growth.
- We all possess an innate resilience to overcome struggles in a way that is meaningful to us, but sometimes we can lose sight of this and need help to get back on track.
- We are all unique with differing backgrounds, experiences, beliefs and values, and therapeutic practice should respect and reflect this.

Counsellor and Psychotherapist, Dip MBACP
Rise Counselling
I remain continuously passionate and curious about human beings and the way we continue to develop and strive for survival in the most difficult of circumstances. I am reminded daily of the innate goodness of people when working with clients. I feel privileged that they may allow me to be with them for a time on their journey throughout the counselling relationship.
Before becoming a counsellor, I worked for social services both with adults and childrens teams countywide. I also spent time working with special needs in the third sector and in education both here in the UK and abroad.
