About Elizabeth
Elizabeth "Liz" Gray is a licensed social worker with 10 years of clinical practice. She is an LSCSW licensed in Kansas and offers a calm, individualized approach that centers on each person's goals. Liz emphasizes client autonomy and works at a pace that feels manageable for the person in front of her.
She blends practical tools with an understanding of attachment and life history. Common concerns she supports include anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, eating and body-image issues, relationship struggles, grief, and everyday stress. Codependency, boundaries, communication problems, and family of origin issues are also areas she addresses.
Liz uses a mix of well-known approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based methods, and client-centered work. She adapts techniques to match the client’s needs instead of following one fixed method. Sessions focus on clear goals, skill-building, and small steps that feel doable.
Her background includes a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Kansas State University and a Master of Social Work from the University of Kansas. That training and a decade of experience inform how she balances active skill teaching with listening and reflection.
Outside of work she keeps things relaxed; she has a cat and a French bulldog who sometimes interrupt sessions. She enjoys hiking in the Rocky Mountains and brings a down-to-earth attitude to the therapeutic relationship.
How her approaches guide online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take small, concrete steps toward them while learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings. It is useful for stress, anxiety, and situations where someone wants more meaningful action in daily life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going and then testing and changing those patterns with practical exercises. CBT often helps with anxiety, depression, and behavior-related concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early relationship patterns and how they shape current connections and emotional responses; it can be helpful for relationship difficulties, codependency, and attachment struggles.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Liz treats therapy as a collaborative process and will help figure out which methods fit a person’s needs, goals, and preferences. She often blends techniques and adjusts plans as progress is made so sessions stay useful and realistic.
If you are interested in online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking. Practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy week, reducing travel time, and making it easier to check in during a workday or between obligations. Some formats can be shorter or use less bandwidth, which can be helpful when someone prefers not to be on camera or needs a quick check-in. Licensed professionals can tailor the session length and pacing so therapy fits into everyday life.
