Elizabeth Meyer, LCSW

Elizabeth Meyer is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in North Dakota with five years of clinical experience. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem struggles, and life changes. Elizabeth also focuses on issues such as abandonment, attachment concerns, codependency, and communication problems.

She uses a person-centered, strength-based, and trauma-informed stance in sessions. That means she listens for what matters most to the person and builds on existing strengths while addressing symptoms and patterns that cause pain. Sessions often combine practical skills work with exploration of past events that continue to affect daily life.

Elizabeth draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to teach skills for emotion regulation, mindfulness, and changing unhelpful thinking. She also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) for processing traumatic memories when it fits the person’s goals and readiness. Mindfulness techniques are integrated to help reduce reactivity and increase present-moment focus.

Her background includes a Bachelor of Science in Social Work and a Master of Social Work from the University of North Dakota, plus minors in American Indian Studies and Chemical Dependency. That foundation informs how she addresses co-occurring concerns and cultural context when relevant.

In the first sessions she aims to clarify immediate concerns, safety, and short-term goals. From there she and the person map out practical steps - skills practice, pacing of trauma work, or coping strategies for transitions - so progress is measurable and realistic.
