About Elizabeth
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan with 10 years of experience. Elizabeth Barthol works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and LGBT-related concerns. She also supports those dealing with grief, trauma and abuse, self-esteem and motivation, and intimacy-related issues.
Elizabeth frames therapy around evidence-based therapeutic techniques. She adjusts conversation and treatment plans to match each person's situation. Sessions focus on clear goals, practical skills, and coping strategies that can be used between meetings.
Her work includes supporting people with parenting stress, compassion fatigue, bipolar disorder, and attention-deficit concerns. She also assists those affected by adoption and foster care issues, autism and Asperger Syndrome, blended family challenges, and caregiver stress. Communication problems, control issues, and recovery from domestic violence are further areas she addresses.
Elizabeth provides care for people navigating divorce or separation, anger and impulsivity, guilt and shame, and concerns related to gender dysphoria or HIV/AIDS. She pays attention to co-morbidity when several issues overlap, and she helps people make step-by-step plans for change.
In sessions, she focuses on practical conversation and skill-building rather than technical labels. People can expect direct discussion of their current problems, exploration of what has or hasn’t worked, and collaborative planning for next steps. Her approach emphasizes working together to identify manageable actions that fit everyday life.

Therapeutic approaches used in remote sessions
Elizabeth uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on measurable skills and real-life change. One common approach she applies is cognitive restructuring, which helps people identify and change unhelpful thought patterns that feed anxiety and depression. This method teaches tools to test thoughts and develop more balanced ways of thinking.Another frequently used technique is skills-based coping work, which emphasizes practical strategies for managing stress, impulsivity, and mood swings. These sessions often include step-by-step skill practice, behavioral experiments, and short homework tasks to build habits between meetings.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. Adjustments are made over time so the plan stays useful and relevant.
Confirm the specific session formats offered before booking, as the profile does not list formats explicitly. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel and allowing check-ins during workday breaks or evenings. They also permit shorter focused sessions when time or bandwidth is limited, and they let people continue therapy from different locations without needing in-person visits.
