About Elizabeth
Elizabeth "Libby" Burris helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, relationship strain, parenting challenges, addiction, ADHD, and many other concerns. She is Elizabeth Burris, LPC and LCMHC, licensed in Pennsylvania and North Carolina, and she brings 12 years of experience in mental and behavioral health. She meets people where they are and works side-by-side on clear goals.

Background and approach
Libby draws on a mix of approaches to match the person in front of her. She uses client-centered work to build trust and clarity. She also integrates cognitive behavioral strategies to change troubling thoughts and behaviors, and she addresses attachment patterns that affect relationships.
Her background includes work in both inpatient and outpatient settings. She has supported people across the lifespan, including young children, adolescents, adults, and older adults, in individual and group formats. That practical variety informs how she adapts care to each person’s needs.
In a first phase she focuses on understanding what matters most and what currently gets in the way. From there she and the client set small, measurable steps. Progress is reassessed regularly so plans stay useful and realistic.
She offers multiple ways to meet and encourages people to pick the format that fits their routines and energy level. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session according to therapist availability.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Existential therapy looks at what gives a person meaning and how they face life’s big questions; it can help people feeling stuck, questioning purpose, or struggling with major life changes. Attachment-based therapy focuses on relationship patterns and how early connections shape trust and closeness, which can help with intimacy issues and recurring relationship conflict. Client-centered therapy emphasizes a warm, nonjudgmental relationship and helps people clarify their own goals and values so they can make changes that matter.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and then try methods that seem to fit. That collaboration guides which approaches are used and how sessions are structured over time.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits for fitting care into busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when screen time is workable. Phone sessions can be a good low-bandwidth option or a quicker way to check in. Live chat and text-based messaging provide shorter, flexible touchpoints for processing between sessions or when writing out thoughts feels easier. These options make it simpler to keep momentum and adapt therapy to changing schedules and energy levels.
