My name is Elizabeth, a qualified relational/integrative therapist, experienced in delivering face to face and online therapy to young people and adults. I have had the great privilege to work alongside many clients seeking help with, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, anger, low self-esteem, adhd and bereavement. In addition, I have worked with survivors of physical, sexual and emotional abuse, as well as those who have been in narcissistic relationship. As an integrative psychotherapist, I draw from creative person-centred and psycho-dynamic approaches that may take you back to early experiences and inner child work. There are times in life when challenges and problems may begin to take control over our lives, leaving us stuck, confused and in crisis. Therefore, therapy can help in exploring and understanding the issues making that are making life difficult for you at any point in your life by supporting you to build understanding, to yourself, others and the world around you. The experience of counseling is unique to each individual, and that is why as an integrative therapist have a range of approaches and tools. This is because, through psychological relationship, it is possible to heal and restore bad experiences in order to build the life you desire.

I have not been the easiest person to help as I have found it extremely difficult even to start talking because of how nervous I was about my personal issues. But they have been extremely patient with me and have listened and been able to help identify not only what is upsetting me but also to help me explore my reasons and my post trauma behind my issues. I don’t enjoy it but I feel like I am starting to deal with things I thought were impossible before

I did change therapists until I found the right fit for me. We are all humans and so are therapists. We could gel well with those we get along well with. Elizabeth listens well, every session I really do feel listened to and she gives me her undivided attention. She also makes me see life from different perspectives that I may have been blind to see. She also relates psychotherapy and helps me heal my childhood trauma. She’s the best therapist!!

Elizabeth is the absolute best! She listens to me with so much care and empathy, and she always has the perfect response to anything that comes up. She’s definitely the best therapist I’ve ever had, I feel so seen and understood with her. She sometimes even predicts what I’m about to say or how I feel, which makes me believe that she truly empathises with and cares about every one of her clients. She also has plenty of expertise to back up her advice, and I’ve found that implementing her advice works almost instantaneously. I’ve healed so much since I started seeing her, I can only recommend her as a therapist!

Elizabeth has been such a fantastic source of positivity and growth in my life. Since the beginning of this year I have been having a really tough time and continue to face challenges, and throughout all of it Elizabeth has been a calming source of reassurance as well as a great teacher. She brought me back from a crisis situation to a state of neutrality and gave me the tools to continue on with my personal improvement. I can not recommend Elizabeth enough.

Although I am only about a month in my therapy sessions with Elizabeth Gichuki, I can confidently say that these sessions have already created the foundation I was looking for in improving my mental health. She is a patient and careful listener and guides me successfully towards new ways of thinking and encourages my self-discovery journey. I particularly appreciate her compassion and willingness to dive into more complex subjects without judgement, also taking into consideration all that I tell her. The worksheets she provides have also proved to help improve my understanding of the things I struggle with.
If you’re looking for a therapist who is an active, compassionate and receptive listener, and who can guide you towards a healthy mindset, Elizabeth is a lovely candidate.
Thank you for your work!

I had the great fortune of being matched with Elizabeth as my first BetterHelp therapist, during a period of intense flux personally.
As a queer Kenyan living in the UK, working with a Kenyan femme therapist provided me with what can only be described as the opportunity to heal old wounds at home, away from home. Would highly recommend her for queer individuals from a Kenyan or broader African experience, and beyond that, commend her on her expertise in referrals where one might need even more specialist guidance. Asante sana!

Elizabeth has been so helpful to me. I prefer her style of therapy where she engages you as a human . She listens and lets me get things off my chest but then follows up with a story or anecdote that really helps me put my experiences into perspective. This has been so positively affirming to me and my mental health has improved so much as a result of her counselling. I would recommend her very highly.
