About Elizabeth
Dr. Elizabeth Parr is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Louisiana with 18 years of clinical experience. She focuses on relationship concerns, parenting struggles, career difficulties, coping with life changes, and ADHD. She speaks English and works directly with adults to address these issues.
She prefers a straightforward way of working. Sessions focus on noticing unhelpful thoughts and habits and trying different responses. She listens, asks practical questions, and helps people set small, concrete goals between sessions.
Dr. Parr uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thinking patterns that keep problems going and to practice new behaviors. She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy to follow the client's lead and build sessions around what matters most right now.
Typical work in session includes clarifying current problems, checking what has been tried, and choosing one or two clear steps to test before the next meeting. She encourages brief exercises and simple tracking to see what changes and what does not.
Her additional focus areas include caregiving stress, communication problems, codependency, family of origin issues, forgiveness, shame and guilt, and challenges related to aging, neurodiversity, intellectual disability, and impulsivity. People who prefer a practical, structured approach may find this style useful.
To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session to discuss goals and next steps.
Using CBT and Client-Centered Methods Online
Dr. Parr uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. CBT sessions often involve short exercises, tracking patterns between meetings, and step-by-step skill practice to address issues like anxiety, ADHD-related habits, and coping with change. Client-Centered Therapy means the sessions follow the person's priorities and pace, with the therapist asking questions and reflecting to clarify what matters most.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each client to decide whether CBT techniques, a more client-led approach, or a mix of both fits best. Goals and preferences guide which tools are used and how progress is checked.
Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow focused check-ins during breaks. It can also allow shorter or targeted sessions for skill practice when that suits the client's schedule. The therapist and client will discuss practical arrangements and choose a rhythm that supports the client’s goals.
