About youTherapy

At youTherapy, we believe that everyone deserves the chance to be heard, understood, and supported — especially during life’s most challenging moments.

We offer a calm, compassionate space where adults can explore emotional and psychological wellbeing with the support of a qualified therapist. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, navigating past trauma, or facing a difficult life transition, we’re here to walk alongside you — never ahead or behind.

Our approach is grounded in care, connection, and collaboration. We don’t offer quick fixes or one-size-fits-all solutions. Instead, we tailor therapy to your unique needs, working at your pace in a way that feels safe and meaningful for you.

  • Recovery from domestic abuse

  • Anxiety, depression, and low mood

  • Low self-esteem and self-doubt

  • Grief and loss

  • Complex trauma and childhood wounds

Meet the Team

Currently, youTherapy is led by founder and therapist Liz, with plans to grow a team of trusted professionals who share our values of empathy, integrity, and ethical care.

Liz Hallam

MA, MBACP
Founder & Counselling Psychotherapist

I’m an integrative counselling psychotherapist working relationally, which means I tailor therapy to you and place our connection at the heart of the process.

My practice brings together relational aspects of psychotherapy theory and approaches, including:

  • Person-centred

  • Attachment and interpersonal

  • Relational

  • Compassion-focused

  • Cognitive-behavioural and ACT

  • Existential

  • Family systems and internal family systems

I bring experience from across sectors — including corporate, public, and healthcare settings (education, local authority, and the NHS). I also spent time as a stay-at-home mum, deepening my understanding of parenting, special education needs, and navigating life’s pressures.

With nearly eight years of experience in therapeutic roles, including in speech and language before psychotherapy, I bring a well-rounded, grounded perspective to our work.

Qualifications & Ethics

  • MA in Integrative Counselling (BACP-accredited, Leeds Beckett University)

  • Registered Member of the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy)

  • Committed to the BACP Ethical Framework

  • Ongoing supervision and professional development to provide the best care possible

You can be confident that I practice ethically, safely, and with your wellbeing as the priority.

“I believe that healing begins in relationship - being truly heard and seen, without judgment — Therapy is a collaborative journey. My goal is to support you in discovering your voice, building resilience, and finding a way forward that makes sense for you.”
