About Elizabeth

Elizabeth Gore is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in South Carolina who draws on a cognitive behavioral orientation to help individuals build practical skills for daily life.

Background and approach

She blends evidence-informed strategies with motivational interviewing to address issues like anxiety, depression, stress, anger, and challenges with attention and focus. Elizabeth emphasizes collaborative goal-setting and skill development so clients leave sessions with concrete tools for coping and change.

She has worked in clinical settings with both adults and teenagers, providing therapy for concerns including addictions, self-esteem, parenting and family dynamics, communication problems, impulsivity, women's issues, and transitions that accompany life changes.

With 11 years of professional experience, Elizabeth frames clients as the experts in their own lives and aims to support them in discovering and using their strengths. Her approach encourages small, achievable steps toward a more satisfying and balanced life while honoring each person’s unique story.

CBT and Motivational Strategies for Online Support

Elizabeth uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop practical skills for managing anxiety, low mood, stress, and attention-related challenges. CBT focuses on strategies like behavior activation, skill practice, and restructuring thoughts to reduce symptoms and improve functioning. Motivational Interviewing complements this by exploring personal values and ambivalence to increase readiness for change, which can be particularly useful for addiction, impulsivity, or when making life transitions.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Elizabeth works with each person to understand their goals, preferences, and day-to-day demands, and then tailors CBT techniques and motivational strategies to fit those needs. Together they set achievable steps and review what works, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with Elizabeth is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain consistent sessions, practice skills between meetings, and access care from wherever the client is located in South Carolina. The variety of formats supports ongoing engagement and makes it simpler to integrate therapeutic work into a busy life.
