About Elizabeth

Elizabeth Holden is an Oregon-licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 21 years of clinical experience who focuses on practical goal-setting and skill building. She works collaboratively with clients to clarify goals, explore possible solutions, and strengthen communication and coping abilities.

Background and approach

Her approach emphasizes building interventions that address current concerns while boosting self-esteem and overall wellbeing. Her clinical work includes support for stress and anxiety, depression, family conflicts and relationship dynamics, as well as a broad range of related challenges such as ADHD, addiction, parenting struggles, anger, career difficulties, and compassion fatigue.

Additional areas of focus include aging and geriatric issues, attachment and family of origin concerns, blended family problems, caregiver stress, and other complex life circumstances. Elizabeth frames clients as the experts in their own stories and aims to partner with them to create practical, achievable steps toward a more fulfilling life.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care

Elizabeth integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Client-Centered Therapy as primary tools in her work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing new, more adaptive behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression and to improve problem-solving. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and collaboration so clients feel heard and can draw on their own strengths to set meaningful goals.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and will be explored together. She works collaboratively with each person to match methods to their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques as progress is made and new challenges emerge.

Online sessions are offered via 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 continuity of care while balancing work, family, and other commitments, and they allow licensed professionals to deliver consistent therapeutic support across varied circumstances.
