About Elizabeth
Elizabeth Nolen is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Louisiana with 24 years of professional experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes. Elizabeth often focuses on practical coping skills and everyday problems her clients bring to sessions.
She uses straightforward conversation and a collaborative approach. Sessions look at unhelpful thoughts and patterns, and try small behavior changes to test what helps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is one of the approaches she draws on, alongside client-centered and mindfulness methods.
Elizabeth has long experience addressing relationship communication problems, caregiver stress, and workplace concerns. She also works with people facing chronic pain or illness, grief around separation or divorce, and difficulties like guilt, shame, isolation, or obsessive thoughts and behaviors.
In session she aims to be interactive and respectful of each person’s values. She focuses on skills people can use between appointments, such as thought-monitoring, practical planning, and simple mindfulness exercises. That emphasis is intended to make sessions feel concrete and task-focused rather than abstract.
People interested in starting with her are asked to use the site’s matching steps to schedule a first appointment. The practice uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and fees vary by location. Sessions are conducted in English and follow the scope of practice for an LA LCSW.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Elizabeth uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; this approach is practical and often focuses on short-term skills for anxiety, depression, and intrusive thoughts. Client-Centered Therapy provides space for the person to lead the conversation while the therapist offers reflective listening and support for decisions. Mindfulness Therapy adds simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus.Finding the right mix of these approaches is a collaborative process. Elizabeth will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That may mean trying CBT exercises one week and focusing on mindfulness skills the next, then adjusting based on what is useful.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example it can remove travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a break, or avoid needing to be on camera when that helps someone focus. Licensed professionals often find that structured CBT work and brief skills practice translate well to remote sessions, while reflective client-centered time also adapts to a virtual setting.
