About Elizabeth
Elizabeth Van Den Berg is a licensed professional counselor with 12 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, bipolar symptoms, and depression. She also supports people who are coping with life changes and who want more confidence and motivation. Elizabeth speaks plainly and focuses on practical steps someone can start using right away.
She begins by listening to each person's story and identifying what is already working.
Background and approach
Then she helps set small, realistic goals that fit daily life. Sessions aim to build skills for handling difficult emotions and improving day-to-day functioning. Her practice emphasizes collaboration.
Elizabeth treats the person in the room as the expert on their life. She offers guidance, feedback, and tools while people choose what fits their values and needs. Elizabeth has lived in Colorado for 25 years and holds a Colorado Licensed Professional Counselor credential.
She currently lives abroad and keeps a schedule that often fits outside of a standard 9-to-5 day. That can make it easier for people who work nights or have irregular hours to find appointment times. Sessions combine practical coping strategies with work on underlying patterns like attachment, commitment issues, or problems with communication.
Elizabeth also brings experience with concerns such as adoption and foster care, caregiver stress, body image, and a range of personality and neurodiversity-related issues. The aim is steady progress and clearer choices for moving forward.
Evidence-based approaches and flexible online care
Elizabeth uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on real-life changes and emotional regulation. One common approach emphasizes learning practical coping skills for anxiety and depression, such as breath work, behavioral activation, and step-by-step activity planning to rebuild routine and motivation. Another approach addresses patterns in relationships and self-view by identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, then practicing alternative responses that support better communication and self-esteem.Finding the right approach is a team effort. Elizabeth works together with each person to choose which methods match their goals, daily life, and preferences. She adjusts strategies over time based on what helps and what feels manageable.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video calls are useful for in-depth weekly sessions, phone calls can fit shorter check-ins or low-bandwidth situations, and messaging or live chat can support quick reflections between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around irregular work hours or busy family life and help people keep momentum between meetings.
