Attachment and Client-Focused Care Delivered Online

Elizabeth "Libby" Burris integrates several therapeutic approaches when working with clients online. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a supportive, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist follows the client’s lead to foster self-exploration and personal growth - it is especially helpful for people seeking stronger self-esteem and clearer life direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; it is practical and goal-oriented, and often used for anxiety, depression, and coping skills. Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns formed in early relationships and how they influence current connections, which can be useful for relationship struggles, intimacy concerns, and attachment-related wounds.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Burris works collaboratively with each person to determine what methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative planning helps tailor interventions and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy with licensed professionals can offer flexibility and easier access to care. Sessions may be conducted via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing clients to choose the format that fits their schedule and comfort level. These options make it possible to maintain continuity of care while balancing work, family, and other commitments.
