02 · In Elizabeth's own words

What Elizabeth says about the work

Reproduced in full and unedited - not summarised, not tightened, not rewritten in a house voice.

I am a licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker in South Carolina with 4 years of professional work experience. I have experience helping clients with stress and anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, & motivation, self esteem, and confidence.

I have worked with teenagers within the criminal justice system and facilitated psycho-education groups with mandated clients suffering from addiction.

I later shifted to working with caregivers of and individuals receiving hospice and home health care. I worked with these individuals to prioritize needs, pursue needed resources, engage in long-term care planning, cope with chronic illness, and address dysfunctional family systems. Most recently, I have worked with Veterans' and their families in a health care setting.

I have found each of the populations I have worked with engaging and rewarding in their own way. I believe, regardless of age, people are people. While our specific needs and priorities may change throughout our life, we all need unconditional positive regard as a foundation of any healthy supportive relationship.

Working with unique and diverse groups has further ingrained in me the numerous systemic barriers that individuals of different ages, genders, religions, races, and sexual orientations face.

Programs and services I am most familiar with include, Medicare, Medicaid, Health insurance, In-patient rehabilitation services, Nursing home care, Assisted living, Independent living, In-home care, Home-health, Hospice care, Veteran's benefits administration, Veteran's health administration, Addiction rehabilitation services, SNAP Food Stamps, and Income-based housing.

My approach to client care is patient-centered, strength-based, trauma informed, advocacy. Therapeutic interventions and clinical skills I have the most training in include Cognitive behavioral therapy, Suicide prevention, SBIRT, active listening, and motivational interviewing. However, I recognize that trauma and family dynamics impact individuals throughout their life.

My clients have described me as approachable, straight forward, non-judgmental, caring, and as a good listener.

I am a big believer of practice what you preach. I know from personal experience the amount of courage and resilience it takes to take the first step of recognizing you need support, to finding a counselor that is a good fit, and showing up for yourself in and out of therapy. If you are ready to take that step with me or simply talk about what therapy is like, what to look for, and what your needs are; I am here for you.

03 · What happens next

From this page to a first session

Elizabeth practises through BetterHelp, so the route in is BetterHelp's. This is that sequence, written by Maker Therapy from the platform's published process - not a description of Elizabeth's own practice, and not a promise about how quickly anything happens.

1. A questionnaire, not a booking form

   BetterHelp opens with a set of questions about what you are dealing with, what you want from therapy, and any preferences on the therapist. You are not booking Elizabeth at this point.

2. Naming Elizabeth specifically

   BetterHelp matches algorithmically by default, so asking for Elizabeth is a step you have to take. There is a field for requesting a specific therapist during sign-up, and you can switch afterwards from your account. Starting from a link on this page does not by itself assign you to Elizabeth.

3. If the caseload is full

   You will be offered somebody else rather than put on a waitlist. Worth knowing, because it is easy to assume a match is the person you asked for.

4. The first conversation

   A first session is typically history and orientation: what brought you, what has been tried, what you want to be different. It is also where the questions in the next section belong.

5. If the fit is wrong

   Changing therapist on BetterHelp does not need a reason. A first session that does not click is common and is not a verdict on therapy. That option existing is the main practical difference between a platform and a private practice.

04 · Before you commit

2 questions worth asking Elizabeth

Built from what Elizabeth actually lists, so they are answerable and specific rather than generic. Maker Therapy's, not Elizabeth's - Elizabeth has not seen them and is under no obligation to answer any of them.

• “How do you decide when someone is ready to work on a traumatic memory itself?”

  Pacing is the biggest safety question in trauma work. A clear, unhurried answer here matters more than any credential.

• “How do you handle the gap between sessions if something comes up?”

  On BetterHelp this varies a great deal by therapist. Better to know the rhythm now than to discover it on a bad week.

06 · Provenance

Where every line on this page came from

Elizabeth's name, credential, state, subjects, approaches and biography are read from BetterHelp's therapist roster, which Maker Therapy re-reads once a day; this page reflects the reading taken on 9 Oct 2026. The licence number and NPI are cross-checked against public registers.

The plain-English method descriptions, the first-session walkthrough and the questions are written by Maker Therapy and labelled as such wherever they appear.

Maker Therapy is not BetterHelp, does not take bookings, and has not met Elizabeth. There are no reviews or ratings on this page because we have no way to verify one. If you start therapy through a link here, we may be paid a commission - it does not change your price and it does not affect who appears here or in what order.
