Elizabeth Koenig is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) who meets people with warmth and practical support. She aims to be the kind of therapist she would have wanted during her own struggles, and she brings a calm, down-to-earth approach to sessions.
She draws on three years of clinical experience across inpatient, crisis care, and outpatient community settings. That range means she has seen how stressful moments fit into the larger pattern of someone’s life. She often brings her black lab Maggie into the office to help lower anxiety during sessions.
Elizabeth uses a cognitive behavioral perspective, which looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect. In practice this means talking through unhelpful thought patterns, trying small behavior changes, and noticing how emotions shift. Sessions are focused on skills you can use between meetings.
She works with people facing depression, grief, trauma and abuse, and LGBT-related concerns. Self esteem and body image are also common topics, along with guilt, shame, and questions about life purpose. She also helps with social anxiety, mood disorders, post-traumatic stress, and self-harm concerns.
Clients can expect straightforward conversation, practical tools, and a collaborative plan for change. To begin, people follow the provider’s matching process and schedule according to the therapist’s availability. Sessions are offered in English and Elizabeth practices in Colorado.
How evidence-based approaches translate to online work
Elizabeth uses cognitive behavioral ideas to help people notice and change thought patterns that keep them stuck. CBT-style work in sessions often includes identifying automatic thoughts, trying simple behavioral experiments, and building coping skills for mood and anxiety concerns.
She also draws on other evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on managing trauma and strong emotions. These approaches typically involve pacing exposure to distressing memories, teaching grounding and emotion-regulation skills, and practicing ways to reduce shame and self-directed blame.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will ask about your goals, habits, and what has or hasn’t helped before, then suggest options and try what seems likely to fit. The plan can be adjusted as work proceeds so clients stay involved in decision making.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online work convenient because it can fit into a busy day, reduce travel time, and make it easier to maintain regular appointments. Others prefer in-person meetings when available; either way, therapeutic techniques like CBT and trauma-focused skills can be adapted to different settings to focus on practical changes and better day-to-day coping.
