Therapeutic approaches and online care

Elizabeth uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify personal values and take manageable steps toward a life that matters to them. ACT emphasizes noticing thoughts and emotions without getting stuck and connecting actions to what matters most.

She also draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try new behaviors that reduce anxiety and depression. CBT focuses on practical exercises and small experiments to change how someone feels over time.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist generally discusses different methods and helps each person choose what fits their goals and preferences. This decision is collaborative and can change as needs shift.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Licensed professionals can also combine methods across sessions to address stress, trauma recovery, and everyday coping in ways that match practical needs and goals.
