Approaches That Translate to Online Care
Elizabeth commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on creating a respectful, empathetic space where the client leads the conversation and the therapist reflects and supports personal insight. This approach is useful for people seeking acceptance, clarity, and stronger self-understanding.
She also integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and build practical skills for managing stress, anxiety, mood, and day-to-day challenges. CBT is goal-oriented and often includes tools clients can apply between sessions.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques are used when emotion regulation, impulsivity, or intense interpersonal conflicts are present. DBT combines acceptance and change strategies to teach coping skills for high-distress moments.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic work. Elizabeth collaborates with each client to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts the plan over time as progress and priorities evolve.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, allowing people to fit therapy into busy lives and access licensed professionals from different locations. These options can make it easier to maintain consistent care, try shorter check-in formats, or choose the communication style that feels most comfortable while working toward meaningful change.
