How her approaches translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening and building a therapeutic relationship. It focuses on what matters to the client and supports people as they set their own goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches concrete skills to change them, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Elizabeth will talk with each person about goals and preferences and recommend techniques that fit their needs. That collaborative planning helps shape whether sessions emphasize skill practice, emotional processing, or both.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the current online options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, shorten check-ins when schedules are tight, or reduce travel time to appointments. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT and client-centered methods to online work by using guided exercises, mindfulness practices, and structured skill coaching during sessions.
