About Elizabeth

When a single event or a lifetime of struggles makes everyday tasks feel overwhelming, Elizabeth Stone offers a steady framework for emotional recovery and growth. She guides clients through a process of self-discovery and mind-body awareness that focuses on restoring intuition, building inner strength, and learning to manage adversity rather than allowing it to define a person. Elizabeth blends trauma-informed care with evidence-based therapies to meet each client's needs and pace.

She is trained in trauma-informed approaches and in therapies such as cognitive behavioral therapy and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing. Elizabeth also incorporates mindfulness-based practices as part of a holistic strategy to strengthen the connection between thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations. Her work supports people coping with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, grief, relationship and family challenges, and a range of life transitions.

Elizabeth holds LCSW and LISW credentials - professional licenses that reflect advanced social work training and authorization to practice clinical social work. She collaborates with group therapy programs and supports military personnel and first responders, including participation in retreats designed to address the unique stresses of those roles. Her approach centers on practical skills, compassion, and adapting techniques to fit each person's goals and circumstances.

Integrating Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Elizabeth Stone draws from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness-based practices to support online clients. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress-related issues. Mindfulness therapy emphasizes present-moment awareness and gentle acceptance of thoughts and sensations, offering tools for emotion regulation and improved mind-body awareness. She may also use elements of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients clarify values and take committed action toward meaningful goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Elizabeth works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they explore techniques and adjust the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with Elizabeth is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier for people to access licensed professionals and continue consistent care from home, while allowing therapists to tailor sessions to each client's communication style and daily life.
