Pazit Clayton , BACP

Pazit Clayton is a counsellor with seven years' experience working with adults and young adults. She practises online and from an office in the United Kingdom. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and speaks English and Hebrew.

Pazit aims to create a calm, accepting space where people can talk about what is troubling them. She listens without judgement and focuses on building a trusting relationship. In early sessions she helps clients describe what is happening and what they would like to change.

Her work covers a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy issues, trauma and abuse, self‑esteem, grief and addiction. She also supports people with family problems, parenting strain, eating and sleeping difficulties, career worries and coping with life changes. Additional areas of focus include attachment and abandonment issues, body image, codependency, communication problems and guilt or shame.

Pazit uses a mix of talking approaches to suit each person. She draws on client-centred ways of working to prioritise the person's experience, cognitive behavioural ideas to help change unhelpful thinking and solution-focused steps to set practical goals. Mindfulness and psychodynamic ideas may also appear when they help make sense of patterns.

The counselling process is collaborative and paced to each client. Early work often centres on small, achievable changes and clearer ways of coping. Over time sessions can move towards deeper patterns and longer‑term aims if that feels helpful.

How Pazit blends therapy approaches online

Client-centred work puts the person's experience first. The counsellor listens carefully and follows what matters to the individual, helping them feel understood and heard. This approach is useful for people who need a non-judgemental space to talk through painful feelings or confusing decisions.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on practical changes to thoughts and behaviours. It breaks problems into manageable steps and introduces tools to reduce anxiety or low mood. CBT is often helpful for stress, sleep problems, obsessive thinking and low mood.

Mindfulness techniques are used to help people notice thoughts and bodily sensations without getting swept away by them. Simple practices can reduce rumination, support relaxation and increase awareness of patterns that maintain distress.

Pazit treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and suggest ways of working that fit their life. The plan can change over time as needs shift and different methods prove useful.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual contact helps. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging can suit people who prefer writing or who want ongoing, brief contact between sessions. These options help therapy fit around work, family and travel commitments while keeping the focus on steady progress.
