About Elizabeth
Elizabeth DeRouin is a North Carolina psychologist (NC Psychologist 5417) and a Virginia psychologist (VA Psychologist 0810007114) with eight years of experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, family issues, trauma and abuse, grief, and compassion fatigue. Elizabeth also notes additional focus areas such as attachment issues, autism and Asperger syndrome, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, codependency, and communication problems.
She integrates evidence-based psychological techniques with a Christian perspective. That means clinical methods are used alongside discussion of faith and spiritual disciplines when clients want that approach. Elizabeth describes working with adults who want to include spiritual resources as part of their recovery and coping strategies.
In sessions she will talk with people about how past events affect current relationships and daily functioning. She pays attention to grief, moral injury, guilt, and shame. She also helps clients notice patterns like impulsivity, commitment fears, or codependent behaviors and practises clearer communication skills.
Her background includes supporting people through life transitions, chronic health challenges, caregiving stress, and relationship strain. Elizabeth uses clinical approaches to reduce symptoms and build practical coping skills, and she also explores spiritual practices when that fits the client’s preferences.

How evidence-based methods and faith can fit into online sessions
Elizabeth uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques alongside a Christian perspective when clients want spiritual support. Common evidence-based approaches include cognitive methods that help identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns, which are useful for anxiety and stress. She also uses trauma-focused techniques that guide people to process painful memories and reduce their ongoing impact on daily life.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Elizabeth will collaborate with each person to decide which methods match their goals, symptoms, and preferences. That means discussing both the clinical techniques and how, if desired, faith practices might be incorporated into sessions.
The biography does not specify exact session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow for shorter check-ins when time is limited, or avoid travel to an office. Licensed professionals can use clinical approaches effectively across different delivery styles, and Elizabeth will help choose what fits a client's routine and needs.
