About Elizabeth
Elizabeth Loring is a Kentucky-licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with nine years of experience. She works with people who are managing stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, and concerns related to LGBT identities. She also addresses trauma and abuse when people bring those issues into therapy.
Elizabeth frames clients as the experts on their own lives. She listens for patterns that started in the family of origin and that continue to affect current choices and relationships. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps rather than labels or long explanations.
In the room she helps clients name difficult feelings and notice how they affect behavior. That can include coping strategies for anxiety, plans to reduce substance use, or ways to manage mood shifts. She talks through options and helps people pick approaches that fit their daily life.
Elizabeth has experience supporting people who engage in BDSM, kink, and alternative sexual cultures, and those exploring polyamory or non-monogamous relationships. She also works with first responder issues, guilt and shame, self-harm, and recovery after sexual assault and abuse.
Her style is straightforward. She offers practical tools and stays focused on what the client wants to change. People who are tired of repeating old family patterns often come to address those exact dynamics.
To begin, clients follow an intake process that includes a short questionnaire and scheduling a first session. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and cost varies with location.
How evidence-based methods translate to online sessions
Elizabeth uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear skills and measurable steps. One common approach is cognitive-behavioral style work, which helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors to reduce anxiety and improve mood. Another practical method addresses coping with addictive behaviors by creating routines, identifying triggers, and building alternative responses.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques fit their goals and preferences. That decision is revisited as therapy progresses so methods stay relevant to changing needs.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Talk with her during the intake questionnaire about what scheduling or session length works best for everyday life.
