About Elizabeth

LMFT (Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist) with 40 years of experience in Oregon. Elizabeth Baxt focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship and parenting concerns, as well as self-esteem, grief, career challenges, LGBT issues, intimacy-related problems, compassion fatigue, depression, and coping with life changes. She uses Client-Centered Therapy and integrates creative methods such as art and guided imagery alongside talk-based work.

Elizabeth frames therapy as practical and interactive. She helps people think more clearly, make better decisions, and reduce recurring drama in their lives. Sessions aim to improve how clients feel about themselves and to build skills for solving everyday problems.

Her approach emphasizes collaboration and hands-on learning. Clients are invited to try exercises during sessions and to practice skills between meetings. The goal is that each session leaves a person with something concrete they can use right away.

Elizabeth has used art and guided imagery in addition to conversation to open new ways of understanding feelings and patterns. These methods are offered as tools within a Client-Centered Therapy framework rather than as standalone labels.

To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Therapy is provided through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and costs vary by location. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking.

How Client-Centered work translates to remote sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, understanding the person's experience, and responding without judgment. It helps with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, self-esteem and life changes by prioritizing the client's perspective and working at their pace. The use of art and guided imagery adds practical alternatives to talking. Art can make feelings easier to name and guide imagery can help rehearse new responses to recurring problems. These tools are used as part of the Client-Centered approach to help people notice patterns and try new behaviors. Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to decide which combination of talk, imagery or creative work fits their needs and goals. That choice can change over time as progress and priorities shift. Practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. Online sessions can make it easier to have shorter check-ins or to schedule meetings around work or caregiving. Because the specific session formats are not listed in the biography, confirm the current options before booking so you know how sessions are arranged.
