She has worked with a wide range of mood and behavior concerns and brings practical tools from several therapy approaches.

How her approaches translate to online therapy
Elizabeth commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy to help clients build skills and shift unhelpful habits. CBT focuses on identifying and testing thoughts and behaviors that fuel anxiety or low mood, helping people try new reactions and track what changes. DBT emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication, which can be useful for strong mood swings, intense emotions, and relationship stress.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. She works with clients to match methods to their goals and daily realities, adjusting techniques as progress unfolds. Clients and therapist set short-term goals and review what’s working so the plan stays practical and relevant.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video allows a full session similar to in-person work, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat or text messaging can fit quick check-ins or when typing feels more comfortable. These options let people fit therapy around work, caregiving, or health needs while using the same skill-based approaches described above.
