About Elizabeth
PACFA counsellor based in Sydney, Australia with 17 years' experience. Elizabeth Fogolin helps people facing trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, life changes and compassion fatigue. She speaks English and Italian and uses a collaborative, process-focused style to work through painful experiences.
Elizabeth keeps sessions straightforward. She listens to what is happening now, helps people name difficult feelings, and supports practical coping steps. Conversations cover loss, reactions to abuse, shaken confidence, and the wear of caregiving or helping roles.
Her work aims to reduce overwhelm and build manageable routines. She helps clients notice unhelpful thinking, plan small changes, and practise ways to respond differently in stressful moments. She also addresses shame, guilt and challenges around forgiveness in clear, direct terms.
People often come to talk about life purpose, communication problems or the slow erosion of self-love. Elizabeth encourages setting realistic goals and checking progress between sessions. She explains options and lets the person choose what feels helpful.
Sessions are arranged through a subscription system that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, select the See online therapy options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and book a first session. Confirm current session formats and scheduling details before you commit.

How her approaches translate to online work
Elizabeth describes her work as evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on processing difficult experiences and building practical coping skills. One common strand is trauma-informed care which helps people understand how past harms affect current reactions and relationships, and supports pacing of difficult material. Another is grief-focused support that helps people name loss, adjust routines and plan manageable steps to rebuild daily life.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Elizabeth will discuss options with the client and choose methods together based on the person’s needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process where approaches can be adjusted as progress is reviewed.
Session logistics vary by practitioner and platform, so confirm which formats are offered before booking. The subscription model used for sessions lets people schedule and change bookings as needed and be billed regularly until cancelled. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so sessions can be scheduled around work or family commitments.
