About Elizabeth
Elizabeth "Lisa" Burdick is a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor with 20 years of experience. She focuses on straightforward, respectful care and creates a calm space for people to talk through stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship worries, grief, and parenting concerns.
She favors a client-centered style that starts with the person's goals and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness tools are commonly used to help people notice patterns, try new behaviors, and reduce overwhelming thoughts. Motivational Interviewing and solution-focused strategies are added when someone needs a clear plan or extra motivation.
Lisa has worked across a wide range of concerns including mood disorders, bipolar disorder, depression, ADHD, and substance use. She also addresses adoption and foster care issues, caregiver stress, multicultural concerns, postpartum and perinatal matters, and challenges faced by veterans and armed forces families. She aims to adapt her approach to each person’s culture and beliefs.
Sessions are practical and conversational. Clients can expect to talk about what matters most, try small experiments between visits, and build ways to handle setbacks. Lisa emphasizes respect, cultural sensitivity, and a nonjudgmental tone in every meeting.
She works with people of all ages and has a particular focus on young adults. Prospective clients should confirm current session options and scheduling before booking.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the person's goals. Online sessions using this style let the therapist build understanding and adapt each visit to what feels most important to the client. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and try specific behavior changes. In an online setting CBT often includes brief exercises, thought records, and homework between sessions to test new ways of coping.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods based on current needs, goals, and personal preferences. That means approaches can shift over time if something is not helpful or if new priorities emerge.
The biography does not list particular session formats, so confirm available online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, shorten travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce the need to take a large block of time out of the day. Many clients find the structure of regular virtual visits helps sustain progress between sessions.
