Background and approach

Elizabeth aims to make steps feel doable instead of overwhelming. Her work combines modern therapies with attention to the body and meaning. That can mean practicing mindful awareness, learning emotional regulation skills, or talking about values and life purpose.

She also brings experience with kink and alternative sexual cultures when those topics are part of the work. Elizabeth has five years of clinical experience and holds an LPC, Licensed Professional Counselor, in West Virginia. She has supported people through compassion fatigue, bipolar mood challenges, seasonal mood shifts, and social anxiety and phobia.

Sessions are collaborative and paced to the individual. Clients create goals together with her, then experiment with tools and approaches that fit their daily life. The emphasis is on small, steady change that adds up over time.

How these approaches translate to online therapy

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety and lift mood. It’s often used for panic attacks, social anxiety, and low mood by working on what you think and do between sessions.

Dialetical Behavior Therapy, DBT, teaches emotional regulation and distress tolerance skills. It can be helpful when emotions feel intense or when people struggle with repeated crises, offering step-by-step strategies for handling strong feelings.

Mindfulness Therapy helps people build present-moment awareness through simple practices. That approach can reduce rumination and improve sleep and stress by training attention and calmness in daily life.

Finding the right approach is a shared task. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and daily routines, then suggest starting points and adjust methods as needed. That collaborative process makes it easier to try techniques and keep what helps.

Online sessions offer flexibility with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation, phone can be lower bandwidth, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or busy schedules.
