About Lizandra
Lizandra Leigertwood is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 14 years of professional experience. She offers calm, straightforward help for people facing stress, anxiety and depression. She focuses on practical ways to manage difficult feelings and daily pressures.
She works with relationship and family concerns, and with people affected by trauma and abuse. Her special interests include attachment difficulties, codependency and issues stemming from narcissistic parenting. She aims to treat everyone with respect and sensitivity.
Background and approach
Lizandra uses a warm, person-centred stance in sessions. That means she listens carefully and follows the pace the client sets. She also draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that repeat over time.
When it feels helpful she brings in attachment-based thinking to understand close relationships. She can also use existential questions to help people find meaning when life feels confusing or stalled. Sessions are practical and grounded.
Clients can expect honest conversation, space to reflect, and steps to try between meetings. The approach is collaborative and aims to help people build greater self-understanding and coping skills.

Approaches Lizandra lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss different ways of working and agree on what fits your needs and preferences. Decisions are collaborative so the plan can change as progress is made and new issues arise.
Online therapy offers flexibility and practical benefits. Video calls let you see non-verbal cues and hold longer conversations, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, immediate reflections, or when typing feels more comfortable. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel, and to continue sessions when life circumstances change.
