01 · Who Elizabeth works with

Elizabeth works with family conflicts, trauma and abuse and parenting issues

Elizabeth lists 15 specialisms and 22 further focus areas. Specialisms are the subjects Elizabeth chose to list first, which is the closest a listing gets to “this is my actual practice”.

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.

Hello, I am so glad you decided to explore talking to someone. I am a licensed social worker in the state of Colorado with 10 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with family conflicts, trauma, abuse, substance use, parenting issues, and a variety of mental health diagnosis (including but not limited to bipolar disorder, depression, and anxiety). I believe that you are the expert of your story, that your history matters and that you have what you need within you. Deciding to talk to someone and talk about the things that burden you is brave. Whether that means addressing your history and how it affects you, current struggles or worries about the future, I am here to support you in that process and look forward to getting to know 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 8 Nov 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.
