About Elizabeth
Elizabeth Holden is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Oregon with 21 years of professional experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, family conflicts, and life changes. Her practice also covers concerns such as ADHD, addictions, parenting challenges, anger, and self-esteem struggles.
She focuses on practical goal-setting and problem solving. Sessions look at communication patterns and coping skills. She helps people develop concrete steps to address symptoms and everyday difficulties.
Elizabeth uses a mix of approaches to match a person’s needs. That can include client-centered conversations, cognitive-behavioral techniques, dialectical strategies, emotionally-focused methods, and mindfulness practices. She leans on whatever combination helps with the issue at hand.
In sessions she draws attention to strengths the client already has. Work often includes building clearer communication, managing impulses, and strengthening self-esteem. She also creates interventions aimed at reducing symptoms and improving daily functioning.
Her background includes two decades of direct clinical work in Oregon. That experience spans a wide range of family-related and individual concerns, from caregiver stress and blended family issues to attachment and aging topics. People often come for help with career stress, compassion fatigue, and decisions that follow major life transitions.
How these approaches are used in online sessions
Elizabeth often draws on cognitive-behavioral therapy to help people notice unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and test small changes. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and career or school stress where specific skills can reduce symptoms.She also uses dialectical behavior therapy tools to teach practical emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills. DBT techniques can help with impulsivity, anger, and problems with intense emotions. Client-centered work is woven through conversations to focus on the person's goals and lived experience.
Deciding which approach to use is part of the work. The therapist will review needs, goals, and preferences and suggest a blend of methods. That choice is discussed and adjusted together as progress is made.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-in conversations when needed, and reduce travel time. Talk with the therapist about session length and how to arrange meetings that fit work, school, and everyday life.
