About Elizabeth
Elizabeth Griffin is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with three decades of experience helping people face stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, and relationship concerns. She approaches sessions in a warm, matter-of-fact way and focuses on practical steps people can use right away. Conversations are collaborative - the aim is to find what works for each person.
She listens actively and keeps the work straightforward. Sessions include identifying strengths, spotting unhelpful patterns, and building small skills that change daily life.
Background and approach
She may bring together cognitive techniques and conversational work to match a person’s needs. Elizabeth’s background includes a bachelor’s degree in psychology and master’s degrees in marriage and family therapy and education. That mix of study and long clinical experience informs how she frames challenges and offers options.
She also respects clients who want to explore spiritual concerns and can include faith-based perspectives when welcomed by the person in therapy. That element is offered only when it fits the client’s preferences. In online sessions she focuses on clear goals and doable steps.
The work is aimed at improving sleep, calming anxiety, restoring trust in relationships, managing anger, and handling life transitions. Elizabeth emphasizes steady progress over quick fixes.
How evidence-based approaches work online
Elizabeth draws on evidence-based techniques that focus on thoughts, behaviors, and everyday routines. Cognitive approaches look at the link between thoughts and feelings and teach practical ways to shift unhelpful thinking patterns to reduce anxiety and depression. Behavioral strategies emphasize small routine changes and skill-building to improve sleep, manage anger, and stabilize mood.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying options, tracking what helps, and adjusting the plan as progress is made.
Online formats make that collaborative work more flexible. Video calls let a therapist and client use face-to-face conversation for deeper discussion. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging let people send notes, check in between sessions, or use shorter written check-ins when that fits someone’s schedule.
