About Elizabeth

Elizabeth Stone is a licensed social worker who helps people navigate overwhelming thoughts and emotions that can make everyday tasks feel difficult. With 11 years of clinical experience, she emphasizes a path of recovery that includes self-discovery, increased mind-body awareness, and learning to trust one’s intuition while building inner strength to accept oneself. Her approach centers on helping people manage life’s adversities so those challenges do not come to define them.

She is trained in trauma-informed care as well as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and she draws on other evidence-based techniques to tailor treatment to each person’s needs. Elizabeth favors a holistic perspective and incorporates mindfulness-based practices to strengthen the connection between thoughts, emotions, and bodily experience.

Elizabeth holds LCSW and LISW credentials - LCSW stands for Licensed Clinical Social Worker and LISW stands for Licensed Independent Social Worker - and practices from an informed, compassionate stance. She also works in collaboration with group therapy programs that support military personnel and first responders, including programs that offer retreats, to address stress, trauma, and related concerns. Her practice focuses on helping individuals regain balance, build coping skills, and move forward with greater resilience.

Therapeutic Approaches Applied to Online Care



Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take meaningful action even when difficult thoughts or feelings arise. It supports working through avoidance and reconnecting with what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and gentle acceptance of experience, which can reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Elizabeth works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She blends techniques as appropriate so treatment is individualized and responsive to change.

Online therapy with Elizabeth is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility and greater access to care. These options make it easier to schedule sessions around work, caregiving, or mobility constraints and allow therapists and licensed professionals to maintain continuity of support across different life demands.
