About Elizabeth

Elizabeth Nolen is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing in Louisiana who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, self-esteem concerns, and depression.

Background and approach

With 24 years of professional experience, she draws on a supportive, interactive style that respects each person’s values and beliefs while offering practical tools to address day-to-day challenges and longer-standing patterns. Her work emphasizes collaboration and concrete strategies, often using cognitive behavioral ideas alongside client-centered and mindfulness-based techniques.

Clients can expect a respectful space where exploration and skill-building go hand in hand, whether the focus is on coping with life transitions, processing past wounds, or addressing obsessive patterns and social anxiety. Elizabeth’s experience also includes attention to caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, workplace pressures, and relationship difficulties.

Elizabeth holds an LCSW (LA LCSW 7370) and brings two decades of clinical practice to her sessions. She offers multiple remote session formats to fit different lifestyles and schedules, guiding clients toward practical changes and greater emotional balance while honoring personal goals and circumstances.

Practical therapeutic approaches for online care

Elizabeth uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns and teach concrete strategies for reducing anxiety, improving mood, and changing behaviors. Client-Centered Therapy is another foundational element of her work, offering empathetic listening and validation so clients feel heard while they explore goals and values. Mindfulness Therapy rounds out her toolkit by teaching present-focused awareness and stress-reduction practices that can ease rumination and improve emotional regulation.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. She works with clients to clarify problems, priorities, and preferences, and then adapts techniques from CBT, client-centered, or mindfulness frameworks to fit each person’s needs rather than following a single predetermined path.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for busy schedules or differing comfort levels with remote work. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, practice skills between sessions, and access therapy from home or other convenient locations while coordinating sessions around daily responsibilities.
