Background and approach

She works with people dealing with depression, trauma and abuse, ADHD, addiction concerns, and relationship or family tensions. Her sessions focus on building trust and identifying what matters most to each person. She helps clients notice patterns, try small behavior changes, and practice new ways of handling strong emotions.

Techniques come from evidence-based methods such as cognitive behavioral work and acceptance-based practices, adapted to each person’s pace. Elizabeth also addresses issues like body image, attachment and abandonment worries, codependency, caregiving stress, and hoarding concerns. She pays attention to how family of origin problems and communication patterns influence current struggles.

When grief, shame, or guilt are present, she helps people name those feelings and move toward workable next steps. Outside of clinical work she has family life and long experience in school systems. That perspective informs a practical, strengths-focused approach.

She encourages small, achievable changes while validating the difficulty of what people are facing.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify what they value and take small steps toward those values despite difficult thoughts or feelings. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions where motivation and meaning matter. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to notice unhelpful thoughts and change patterns of behavior that keep problems going. It often helps with anxiety, panic, phobias, and depressive symptoms. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s own experience, offering a respectful, nonjudgmental space where people can talk through worries and decide their next steps.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each client to figure out which methods fit their needs, goals, and personal preferences. That means trying things, checking what helps, and adjusting pace or techniques as needed.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video allows face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone calls can work when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer not to use video. These options can make it easier to schedule sessions around work, caregiving, and daily life while keeping therapy consistent and focused.
