About Elizabeth

Elizabeth Griffin is a licensed mental health counselor with three decades of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, sleep problems, grief, and relationship difficulties. She listens with warmth and attention, and aims to make therapy a collaborative process. Her approach includes practical tools and conversation that help people shift habits and cope with life changes.

She blends multiple evidence-based techniques to meet each person’s needs. Elizabeth uses Cognitive-Behavioral approaches along with other counseling theories to address things like depression, trauma, bipolar mood concerns, and compassion fatigue. She also supports people working through parenting strain, intimacy issues, anger, and self-esteem struggles.

Elizabeth brings a straightforward, nonjudgmental style to sessions. She asks questions, reflects what she hears, and helps clients identify strengths and small steps they can try between meetings. For people who want to include their faith in therapy, she is open to incorporating a spiritual perspective when requested.

Her training includes a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of South Carolina and master’s degrees in Marriage and Family Therapy and in Education from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. She describes life experience as an important part of her work and draws on that alongside clinical skills.

Sessions are held from her Florida practice and are conducted in English. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking and use the Start Therapy button to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Elizabeth commonly uses Cognitive-Behavioral techniques, which involve identifying unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and practicing new ways of responding. This approach is often helpful for anxiety, sleep disruption, depression, and stress management.

She also draws from other evidence-based counseling theories to tailor sessions to individual needs. These methods focus on problem solving, building coping skills, and tracking small changes over time to measure progress.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and daily life. That may mean trying a few techniques and adjusting based on what helps most.

Confirm current session formats before booking, as the biography does not specify which online or in-person options are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for consistent weekly check-ins. Different formats can suit different needs - for example, shorter phone check-ins can be useful for quick updates, while video meetings allow more in-depth conversation. Discuss format options when scheduling to find what fits best.
