About Elizabeth
Elizabeth "Libby" Burris helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, relationship struggles, and addiction. She also supports people dealing with ADHD, grief, parenting challenges, body image and self-esteem concerns.

Background and approach
Sessions focus on building trust, naming emotions, and setting small goals that feel achievable. She uses approaches such as Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and cognitive behavioral techniques to guide conversations and practice new skills. Her background includes both inpatient and outpatient settings, and she has supported people across the lifespan in a variety of settings.
That experience informs how she adapts methods to fit different needs and life stages. She aims for clear, honest feedback in sessions so progress is practical and measurable. In therapy with Libby, people can expect steady pacing and attention to the emotional patterns that affect relationships and daily life.
She highlights collaboration and teamwork in deciding next steps. If someone decides to begin, the usual process is completing a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling sessions according to availability. Libby emphasizes helping people build stronger emotional connection to themselves and others while addressing concrete problems like sleep, eating, and coping with change.
Her style is straightforward and warm, with focus on real-world results rather than jargon.

Online support
How therapy approaches fit online care
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on identifying and reshaping emotional patterns that affect relationships and self-understanding; it can help with intimacy issues, attachment concerns, grief, and strong emotional reactions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds influence current relationships and works to create more supported ways of connecting with others. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the individual’s experience and relies on empathic listening and collaboration to help people find their own solutions.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then try methods that match those needs. That process is collaborative and can change over time as progress unfolds.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues when discussing relationships and emotions. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for quick check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for brief updates, coping tools between sessions, or when someone prefers typed communication. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or travel while keeping the focus on steady progress.
