About Elizabeth Kinsey-James

Elizabeth Kinsey-James is a BACP-registered integrative counsellor and psychotherapist who brings a warm, gentle, curious, and kind presence to her work. She emphasizes empathy and a relational style, creating a supportive space where people can explore their thoughts and feelings without judgement. Her approach is integrative, meaning she focuses on building a strong therapeutic relationship and draws on different methods when they best serve a client's needs. She blends person-centred principles with psychodynamic perspectives and practical Cognitive Behavioural Therapy techniques. Person-centred work reflects a belief that people can move toward their full potential when offered respect and understanding. Psychodynamic work looks at past experiences and early relationships to uncover patterns that influence present difficulties. CBT offers strategies to adjust unhelpful thoughts and behaviours to improve day-to-day coping.

Elizabeth trained in London and has four years of experience working online, in therapy clinics, counselling services, and private practice. She aims to provide a calm, compassionate environment where people can begin to process grief, stress, relationship issues, anxiety, and other life challenges. She holds the BACP credential, which indicates registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and she frames therapy as a collaborative journey toward greater self-understanding and practical change.
