Evidence-Based Approaches Delivered Online
Elizabeth integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) into her online practice. ACT focuses on helping people clarify their values and take committed action despite difficult thoughts or feelings, which can be useful for stress, anxiety, and motivation challenges. DBT teaches practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness, making it helpful for anger, relationship struggles, and mood instability. EMDR is a trauma-focused approach that helps process and reduce the impact of traumatic memories by using structured bilateral stimulation alongside guided recollection.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Elizabeth works collaboratively with each person to determine which techniques best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She emphasizes shared decision making so therapy can be tailored and adapted over time.
Online sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility for people balancing work, family, and other responsibilities. These options make it easier to maintain momentum between sessions, access care from different locations, and select a format that feels most comfortable, while still working with licensed professionals and therapists trained in evidence-based methods.
