Pazit Clayton , BACP

Pazit Clayton is an integrative counsellor who works with adults and young adults both online and from her office in Heswall, Wirral. She offers a personal service within a sensitive, warm and safe space where clients can explore their situations and emotions at their own pace.

Pazit believes that a secure therapeutic relationship makes it possible to reconnect with one's true self, values and beliefs, and to work toward greater peace of mind. In a non-judgmental and accepting environment she invites clients to discuss their concerns and to reflect on their experiences together. Her practice supports people dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, bereavement, self-esteem issues, bullying, self-harm and suicidal thoughts, among other struggles.

She describes her work as a privilege - witnessing clients' shifts in awareness and those meaningful 'light bulb' moments. Pazit balances paid practice with volunteer work and maintains a keen interest in learning new techniques and expanding her skills.

She is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and of the National Counselling Society - professional bodies for counsellors - and she holds an enhanced DBS check and professional insurance. Pazit provides counselling in English and Hebrew.

Approaches that guide online therapy sessions

Client-Centered Therapy places the relationship at the heart of the work. It focuses on understanding each person's experience from their point of view, offering empathy and acceptance to help people explore identity, values and emotional needs - useful for relationship concerns, self-esteem and life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact. It uses practical strategies to identify unhelpful patterns and to develop alternative ways of thinking and coping, which can be especially helpful for anxiety, depression and stress-related issues.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and gentle attention to thoughts and bodily sensations. These practices support emotional regulation and can reduce rumination, improving responses to stress, grief and ongoing worry.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process. Pazit will work collaboratively with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences, adjusting the focus as the work unfolds. Licensed professionals aim to tailor sessions so the approach evolves with the client's progress.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging let people access support from different locations and at varied times. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to maintain continuity of care when in-person meetings are difficult to arrange.
