About Elizabeth

Elizabeth Jones is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with nine years of experience. She is licensed in Kentucky and Tennessee and has focused much of her work on addiction and trauma. Elizabeth talks directly and plainly about the problems people bring to therapy and what she does in sessions to help them move forward.

She often works with stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship issues including intimacy concerns and codependency. She also supports people facing grief, parenting strain, career shifts, and challenges related to substance use. Her practice includes work around attachment, abandonment, and family-of-origin problems.

Elizabeth draws on several practical approaches in session. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. She also uses dialectical behavior therapy skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance, and client-centered methods to keep the focus on each person’s experience.

Her background includes individual therapy, group work, residential treatment, and family therapy settings. That variety shapes how she plans sessions and adapts tools to real life. Elizabeth describes therapy as collaborative - she helps people notice strengths, practice new skills, and make small changes that fit daily life.

People who tend to put others first, struggle to set boundaries, or feel overwhelmed by another person’s moods or substance use may find the concrete skills and attention to attachment patterns useful. She works in plain language and keeps sessions practical and focused on what people want to change.

How sessions work

How Elizabeth’s approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking actions that fit those values while accepting difficult thoughts and feelings. It can help people who get stuck avoiding uncomfortable emotions or who feel pulled into others’ problems. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers concrete exercises to change patterns that cause distress. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, substance use patterns, and behavior changes. Attachment-Based Therapy attends to how early relationships shape current patterns in close relationships and can help people who struggle with codependency, abandonment worries, or repeating hurtful dynamics.

Choosing an approach is collaborative. Elizabeth will talk with each person about what feels most relevant, try practical tools in session, and adjust methods based on how well they fit a person’s goals and day-to-day life. The process is about testing what helps, not committing to one fixed method up front.

The biography does not specify which online formats are used, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. These practical benefits often help people maintain consistency while learning skills for setting boundaries, managing cravings, or regulating strong emotions.
