Elizabeth Flynn , BACP

Elizabeth Flynn uses an integrative approach that brings together attachment work and cognitive behavioural techniques. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship issues and trauma. Her practical style aims to make therapy feel straightforward and relevant to everyday life.

She has four years of practice listed and has worked with people affected by depression, addictions and grief. She also supports those facing intimacy concerns, parenting strain, eating and sleeping problems, and career or life-purpose questions. Elizabeth includes attention to ADHD, compassion fatigue and bipolar-related coping in her work.

Her background includes work across private organisations and NHS mental health settings, including acute care, CAMHS and forensic wards. That experience means she is used to varied and sometimes complex presentations, and she draws on that when planning sessions. She explains techniques clearly and focuses on small steps clients can try between meetings.

Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients. She works with individuals on issues connected to family, adoption and attachment, and also addresses concerns such as domestic violence, substance use and separation. Clients can expect a collaborative pace and practical options to explore.

Elizabeth aims to help people develop new ways of handling obstacles and to build a more positive outlook. Her approach is adaptable, tailoring methods to the goals that each person brings into the room.

How attachment and CBT translate to online therapy

Elizabeth draws on attachment-based ideas to look at patterns in relationships and how past connections affect current feelings; this approach is useful for worries about intimacy, abandonment and family-related stress. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking and testing simple activities to shift mood and behaviour, which helps with anxiety, depression and coping strategies.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Elizabeth will talk with each person about their needs and goals, and together they will choose which methods to try. That way the plan fits what the client wants to change and how they prefer to work, rather than assuming one method will suit everyone.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low, live chat suits brief check-ins and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options help people fit therapy around work, caregiving or travel, while keeping regular contact with a therapist and continuing practical progress.
