About Elizabeth
Elizabeth Haines is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York with 29 years of professional experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, parenting concerns, depression, and anger. Sessions are offered in English and aimed at practical changes clients can use in daily life.
Her approach is straightforward and focused on collaboration. She uses client-centered methods to listen and reflect what matters to each person. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors. Solution-Focused Therapy helps set clear goals and find next steps that feel manageable.
Elizabeth describes therapy as a place to set goals and work toward them together. She pays attention to communication problems, caregiver stress, blended family issues, and difficulties like grief, trauma, and intimacy concerns. She also supports people dealing with career choices, self-esteem, and life purpose.
Sessions are organized around what a client wants to change. Conversations can include practical skill practice, role-play for difficult talks, and short exercises to test new approaches between sessions. The focus is on small, steady progress rather than quick fixes.
Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session using the site's online options. International clients are not currently accepted.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Elizabeth uses Client-Centered Therapy to listen, reflect, and prioritize what matters to the person in front of her. This approach helps clarify values and immediate concerns so sessions stay focused on the client's priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and tests small behavior changes to reduce unhelpful patterns. Solution-Focused Therapy looks for practical next steps and builds on what already works in a client's life.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. She will discuss goals, preferences, and what has helped or not in the past. That way clients and therapist pick methods that fit current needs and adjust them as work progresses.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. It can also let clients try role-play, practice conversations, and receive exercises to use between meetings. Licensed professionals can adapt these methods to a client's schedule and goals so therapy fits everyday life.
