Elizabeth "Libby" Burris, LPC, LCMHC

Elizabeth "Libby" Burris helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, and relationship struggles. She is Elizabeth Burris, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) practicing in North Carolina. Libby has about 12 years of experience in mental and behavioral health and works with a wide range of concerns including ADHD, addiction, grief, parenting strain, and self-esteem issues.

Her background includes work in both inpatient and outpatient settings. She has supported children, adolescents, adults, and older adults across individual, group, and family contexts. Her experience covers mood disorders such as bipolar, behavioral challenges like oppositional defiance, and complex issues including dissociation and domestic violence.

Libby bases sessions on each person’s needs and goals. She describes therapy as a team effort where honesty and trust matter. She aims to meet clients where they are and offers practical feedback to help people make changes that improve daily life.

Her clinical approaches include attachment-based work, client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, and emotionally focused strategies alongside existential perspectives. These methods are used to help with emotions, patterns in relationships, and managing difficult thoughts and behaviors.

If someone wants to begin, the process involves completing an initial questionnaire and scheduling a session according to the therapist’s availability. The practice asks prospective clients to use the site’s Start Therapy flow to begin matching and scheduling.

How these approaches translate to online work

Attachment-based work focuses on patterns in close relationships. It looks at how early bonds shape reactions and helps people build safer ways of relating to others, which can ease relationship strain and intimacy worries.

Client-centered therapy creates space for a person to lead the conversation. The therapist listens without judgment and reflects what is said to help people find their own solutions and grow self-understanding.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and then tests new ways of thinking and acting. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and practical problems like sleep or coping with cravings.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose or combine methods based on goals and preferences. That process can change as needs evolve, and adjustments are made together.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. It often reduces travel time and can make scheduling shorter check-ins or weekday appointments simpler. The original profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking to know what is offered. Working remotely can help people maintain consistency and apply what they learn directly to day-to-day situations.
