About Elizabeth
Dr. Elizabeth Franklin is an LPC with 20 years of clinical experience helping people through stressful and painful times. She offers calm, practical guidance for worries like anxiety, depression, trauma, and addiction. Elizabeth centers care on each person’s story and goals.
She spends time learning what matters to each client before suggesting ways forward. Sessions focus on clear steps people can try between meetings. That might mean changing thoughts and habits, practicing new communication skills, or setting small, achievable goals.
Her background includes long experience with life transitions, workplace stress, and relationship strain. She also supports people facing grief, parenting pressures, sleep and eating concerns, and challenges tied to attention differences. Codependency is one of the focused areas she addresses when it fits a client’s needs.
The work draws on client-centered techniques that follow the person’s lead, cognitive behavioral ideas to shift unhelpful thinking and behavior, and solution-focused methods to build quick, practical change. Elizabeth uses these approaches together rather than relying on a single method.
Clients can expect straightforward language and an emphasis on skills they can use right away. She aims to create a respectful space where people feel heard and can test new ways of coping. The goal is steady progress toward the goals you set together.
How these approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on following the person’s lead, offering listening and reflection so clients can clarify what matters and decide next steps. This approach helps people who need a supportive space to sort through feelings and choices.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It offers practical exercises to change unhelpful thinking and develop new behaviors, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating concerns.
Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on brief, actionable steps that build momentum. It is goal-oriented and helps people identify small changes that make daily life easier.
Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. Plans are adjusted as needed so the work fits real life and real progress can be tracked.
