01About Elizabeth
Elizabeth "Libby" Burris helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship or family concerns. She also supports clients coping with ADHD, addictions, grief, parenting strain, low self-esteem, and major life changes. Libby practices from a direct, practical stance and aims to make sessions feel like a safe place to talk and plan next steps.
Libby is a Licensed Professional Counselor - LPC - and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor, LCMHC, practicing in North Carolina.
Background and approach
She brings 12 years of experience in mental and behavioral health across inpatient and outpatient settings. That background shapes a flexible approach that adapts to each person's needs. In sessions she focuses on building a trustworthy working relationship.
She listens closely, asks clear questions, and works with clients to set realistic goals. When appropriate she uses strategies from cognitive behavioral approaches, attachment-focused work, and emotionally-focused methods to help people change patterns that cause pain. Therapy with Libby is collaborative and straightforward.
She will talk through what feels most urgent, try practical tools in session, and check how those tools work between meetings. She encourages honest feedback so the work stays useful and relevant. People who choose her often want tangible steps and steady support while they face difficult emotions or life transitions.
If that sounds like what you need, Libby offers multiple online formats to fit different routines and schedules.

04Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Attachment-based work focuses on how relationships shape emotions and behavior; online sessions let clients talk about patterns in current and past relationships and practice different ways to connect. Client-centered therapy emphasizes a nonjudgmental, listening stance where the therapist follows the client's lead; in virtual sessions this feels like having a patient, attentive partner who helps you name what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors and uses exercises and practical skills to reduce distress; this approach adapts well to video or messaging so clients can try tools between sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the client to identify goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust the plan based on what helps. That collaborative process helps ensure sessions focus on the client's needs and preferences rather than fitting a single style.
Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and use of visual materials, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins or when typing feels more comfortable. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to use different formats for different kinds of work.
