Practitioner record · Checked 7 Oct 2026
Elizabeth Windley has been in practice 35 years and is licensed in Tennessee. Elizabeth lists stress, Anxiety, grief and self esteem among 20 subjects on the BetterHelp roster.
Everything below is either quoted from Elizabeth's own BetterHelp listing, taken from public licensing records, or written by Maker Therapy and labelled as such. Nothing here is an availability promise, a review, or a rating.
01 · Who Elizabeth works with
Elizabeth lists 11 specialisms and 9 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”.

03 · How Elizabeth works
These are the clinical methods Elizabeth lists. The descriptions are Maker Therapy's, not Elizabeth's - a general explanation of what each method is, so the list means something before you have spoken to anybody. They are not a claim about how Elizabeth runs a session.
04 · What happens next
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
05 · Before you commit
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.
“With 35 years in, what has changed most in how you work?”
Long experience is only an advantage if it has been examined. This tends to surface whether it has.
“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.
