About Elisabeth
Elisabeth Burn is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in New York with ten years of experience in community mental health. She focuses on practical help for common struggles like anxiety, depression, relationship stress, and parenting concerns. Her tone is warm and respectful, and she aims to meet people where they are.
Over her career she has worked with people who have experienced trauma, domestic violence, and perinatal or postnatal mood concerns.
Background and approach
She also supports those dealing with grief, addictions, career shifts, and major life transitions. Elisabeth emphasizes strengths and recovery rather than labels. Her style is interactive and down-to-earth.
Sessions tend to feel conversational and collaborative. She listens first, then helps clients set clear, achievable goals and steps to reach them. Elisabeth draws from cognitive behavioral techniques to help change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns.
She also uses dialectical behavior therapy skills for managing intense emotions and mindfulness practices to steady attention and reduce reactivity. She adapts her approach to each person’s needs, mixing methods and pacing work based on what is effective. Expect practical tools you can try between sessions and a focus on small, sustainable changes.
People who want a collaborative counselor who respects their experience and helps build everyday strategies may find her approach useful. Elisabeth welcomes conversations about goals and how therapy might fit into a client’s life.

How Elisabeth Uses Therapy Methods Online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a respectful relationship. It helps people feel heard and guides conversations toward the goals they choose. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches specific techniques to change them, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Elisabeth will talk with each person about symptoms, goals, and preferences and then recommend which methods to try first. That collaborative process makes adjustments easier when something isn’t working.
Online sessions can fit different needs and schedules. Video calls let you use visual cues and longer, face-to-face style conversations. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging let people check in more frequently, do brief coaching-style exchanges, or send updates between longer sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while balancing family and work demands.
