About Elizabeth

Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with six years of clinical experience, Elizabeth Richburg focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and mood concerns. She works with people facing anger, depression, and major life changes. Her practice also addresses relationship and family concerns, parenting strain, caregiver stress, and workplace issues. Sessions are conducted in English.

Elizabeth approaches sessions in a straightforward, conversational way. She uses client-centered methods to hear what matters most to each person. She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and on mindfulness to build moment-to-moment coping skills.

In practice she helps people sort through immediate problems like panic attacks or workplace stress. She also supports those processing past trauma, grief, or persistent mood symptoms such as bipolar disorder. She addresses guilt, shame, forgiveness, and attachment concerns through discussion and practical strategies.

Elizabeth incorporates Dialectical Behavior Therapy elements when emotional regulation and strong reactions are present. She pairs skill coaching with reflective conversation to build more effective responses over time. Her work includes motivational interviewing approaches for people weighing change or needing extra encouragement.

Sessions typically focus on clear goals and skills people can try between meetings. Elizabeth emphasizes steady progress rather than quick fixes. To begin, a short matching questionnaire and scheduling step are used to set up the first appointment.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions

Elizabeth commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy in work with clients. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which translates well to exercises, homework, and structured skill practice. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce overwhelm and improve focus, and these skills can be guided and practiced during sessions.

She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current reactions. That approach involves reflective conversation about patterns in relationships and testing new ways of relating. Deciding which approach to emphasize is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to identify goals, try approaches, and adjust methods based on what helps most.

Confirm the current session formats before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online work can make scheduling easier and help sessions fit into a busy week. It also allows focused skill practice during the meeting and makes brief check-ins or coaching-style conversations easier to arrange when needed.
