About Elizabeth
Elizabeth Barnett is an Indiana LMHC with 21 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, anger, relationship and parenting concerns, and related issues. Sessions address practical problems such as sleep disruption, substance concerns, low self-esteem, and coping with life changes.
She uses a person-centered approach and draws on several methods to help people get unstuck. In sessions she offers direct support, reinforcement, and occasional gentle challenge. The therapist describes the role as a guide who helps clients notice options and practice skills rather than handing over answers.
Elizabeth has worked in a range of settings across her career. That experience informs how she tailors sessions to everyday life. She pays attention to communication problems, control issues, first responder stress, and isolation when those come up in therapy.
Practical tools from cognitive behavioral and solution-focused approaches appear alongside trauma-focused work when relevant. That combination supports goal-setting, behavior changes, and learning ways to reduce reactivity. The focus is on short, usable steps that fit into a person's routine.
She also addresses addiction-related concerns and compassion fatigue. Between sessions she may follow up by chat or email to support progress. To begin, readers are asked to use the site's matching steps to schedule a first session and confirm the current session options.
How her approaches work in online sessions
Client-centered work focuses on the client's experience and goals. The therapist listens closely and reflects what she hears so people can notice patterns and decide on next steps. This helps when anger feels automatic or confusing.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact. In practice this means identifying triggers, testing unhelpful beliefs, and trying small behavior changes to reduce reactivity. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes setting short-term goals and finding immediate, practical steps that bring relief and clearer communication.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each client to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That choice can shift over time as skills are practiced and new priorities emerge.
Confirm the session formats before booking so you know what is offered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. It can also make it simpler to continue follow-up by chat or email between sessions when that is arranged.
