About Elizabeth

Elizabeth "Liz" Gray brings a decade of clinical social work experience to her practice, grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy while drawing on several evidence-informed methods. She emphasizes client autonomy and works collaboratively to identify goals, pacing each step to match individual needs and readiness.

Background and approach

Her work commonly addresses stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, eating and body-image concerns, relationship and communication challenges, grief, self-esteem, career issues, and coping with life changes. Licensed as an LSCSW in Kansas (KS LSCSW LSCSW 05602), Liz has experience supporting people through family-related difficulties, compassion fatigue, and complex histories such as adoption or attachment concerns.

She blends approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered techniques, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to tailor care for things like codependency, boundary-setting, dissociation, and recovery from domestic violence. Sessions are offered via a range of online formats to fit different schedules and preferences.

Outside of work she enjoys a relaxed lifestyle shared with her cat and French bulldog and values a client-centered, approachable therapeutic relationship.

How targeted approaches translate to online therapy

Elizabeth Gray frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, a structured approach that is often useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. She also employs Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on clarifying values and building psychological flexibility to cope with difficult emotions and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy appears in her work when addressing relationship patterns and family of origin issues, offering ways to explore how early bonds influence current connections and communication.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Liz works with each person to explore goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, and she adjusts methods over time as needs evolve. This means clients and therapist together identify which strategies to prioritize and how quickly to progress.

Online sessions include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility for scheduling and communication style. These options allow clients to access consistent therapeutic support from Kansas-based licensed professionals without rearranging their entire day, and they enable ongoing work on skills, processing, and planning in ways that fit everyday life.
