    About Elizabeth

    Elizabeth Feagin is a licensed clinical social worker with 13 years of experience. She practices in Florida and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and addiction concerns. Elizabeth draws on a straightforward style that aims to help people move toward practical changes.

    Before retiring from the VA after 15 years, she worked with people facing mental health and substance use challenges. That background informs her work with post-traumatic stress and mood disorders. She also supports people dealing with isolation, forgiveness, and life-purpose questions.

    Elizabeth uses an approach that prioritizes the person’s goals and readiness to change. She combines client-centered conversations with practical strategies from cognitive behavioral therapy. Motivational Interviewing is part of her toolkit when people are weighing change or struggling with substance use.

    Sessions focus on setting clear, doable goals and building skills for day-to-day life. Elizabeth encourages small steps that add up over time and checks in about what is working. She aims to make sessions feel like a collaborative effort rather than a lecture.

    People who come to her often want direct, practical guidance alongside a supportive listener. Her style is calm and goal-oriented, with attention to both emotions and behaviors. Prospective clients can expect a mix of conversation, skill-building, and problem solving.

  2. Approaches that guide online sessions

    Elizabeth often uses Motivational Interviewing to help people sort through ambivalence and find reasons to change. This approach focuses on conversations that build motivation and clarify personal goals, which can be useful for substance use and behavior change.

    She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, where the conversation follows the person’s pace and priorities. That approach emphasizes listening, respect, and working from what the person already knows about their life.

    Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used to identify patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going. CBT involves practical exercises and skill practice to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful habits.

    Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Elizabeth will collaborate with each person to decide what methods fit best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. That means trying things out and adjusting plans together rather than committing to one path up front.

    Session logistics and formats are not listed in the original biography, so confirm the current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow quieter check-ins, and reduce travel time. Talk with the therapist about what will work in day-to-day life and how to structure sessions to meet practical needs.
