Pazit Clayton, BACP

Pazit Clayton is an integrative counsellor who works with adults and young adults both online and from an office in Heswall, Wirral. She creates a warm, sensitive environment where people can explore their experiences and feelings at their own pace, and she emphasizes the importance of a trusting therapeutic relationship as the foundation for change.

She believes that therapy can help uncover core values and beliefs, reduce distress, and increase clarity about life choices. Pazit offers non-judgmental support for a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, bereavement, self-esteem struggles, self-harm and suicidal thoughts. She also works with clients on issues such as communication problems, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related difficulties, grief, parenting challenges and coping with life transitions.

Pazit values being present for clients during moments of insight and change and describes her work as a privilege. She combines a commitment to continued learning with practical experience, providing both voluntary and paid counselling services. Pazit is a registered member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) - the professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists in the UK - and she practices in English and Hebrew. She aims to offer an appointment within a few days when availability allows, helping people find space to talk and begin work on their concerns.

Approaches used online and in-person

Pazit draws on client-centered therapy, which focuses on creating an empathic, accepting space where the client leads the conversation and explores their own values and goals. This approach can be helpful for people working through self-esteem, relationship issues, or life transitions.

She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help clients identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns and develop practical strategies for managing anxiety, depression and stress. CBT is often action-oriented and suitable for clients looking for clear tools to change thinking and behavior.

Pazit will work collaboratively to find the right blend of approaches based on each client’s needs, goals and preferences. Determining the best fit is part of the therapeutic process, and she supports clients in making decisions about pace and focus as therapy progresses.

Online therapy with Pazit is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging, giving flexibility for different lifestyles and time zones. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life changes, and access registered professionals from a distance.
