Elizabeth has been wonderful to work with. She is warm and empathetic, asks great questions and is easy to connect with. She has been just the support I have needed to help me find my feet again after some very difficult years of heartbreak and loss.
More about Elizabeth
- 3 years' experience
- Female
- LICSW
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Rhode Island. I have a combined seven years of experience working with populations that include domestic violence survivors, outpatient psychiatry, older adults, and patients receiving hospice and palliative care. I am also experienced working with patients who have been diagnosed with chronic medical conditions, patients who are suffering from chronic pain, as well as their caregivers. I am well versed in methods that include, but are not limited to, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Client Centered Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Life Review/Reminiscing Therapy, Mindfulness, Harm Reduction, and Trauma Informed Care.
My approach to therapy is to work one on one with each individual to determine their biggest concerns, get to the “root” of the issues, then to work in collaboration to find solutions. I believe in looking at the whole person and their environment to best develop tools that will facilitate long lasting change. I believe that in order for this to happen people need to feel seen, heard, and validated in a trusting relationship with the therapist. Everyone has the capacity for growth and change and it is my job to walk with you on that journey. I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
