About Elizabeth

Elizabeth "Libby" Burris is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) with 12 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, ADHD, addictions, relationship and family concerns, grief, and a wide range of life changes. Libby practices in North Carolina and conducts sessions in English.

Her approach is practical and collaborative. She aims to meet people where they are and build goals together.

Background and approach

Sessions focus on honest conversation, clear feedback, and small steps that can fit into daily life. Libby draws from several therapy styles to match each person's needs. She uses attachment-informed ideas to help with relationships and trust.

She applies cognitive behavioral techniques to spot and change unhelpful thinking. She also uses client-centered and emotionally-focused ways of working to deepen understanding and emotional connection. Her background includes work in inpatient and outpatient settings across age ranges.

That experience informs treatment of issues such as parenting struggles, behavioral concerns, bipolar mood patterns, eating and sleeping problems, and substance use. She has also worked with people coping with aging-related issues, caregiver stress, and complex trauma responses. In sessions, Libby focuses on practical tools and steady support.

She helps people build better communication, manage strong emotions like anger, and plan steps toward goals such as career changes or improved self-esteem. To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule according to availability.

Online support

How Libby’s Approaches Work Online

Attachment-based work looks at patterns in relationships and trust. Online sessions can help people notice how past bonds affect current connections and build safer ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. That approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and changing patterns that get in the way of daily life. Client-centered work centers the person’s experience and pace. It creates space to be heard and to explore choices without pressure.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. She will work with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can change over time as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy schedules. Video calls allow visual connection and interactive work. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer writing between sessions or want quick, ongoing support. These formats make it possible to keep therapy consistent while juggling work, family, or travel.
