About Elizabeth
Elizabeth Fraser is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) licensed in Virginia with eight years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, grief, parenting and relationship concerns, and also works with issues related to trauma, eating and sleeping, ADHD, and LGBT matters. She offers therapy in English and Spanish.
Fraser prefers a collaborative, client-centered way of working. She helps people identify strengths and practical steps they can use to meet goals. Sessions focus on what is happening now and what can be changed to reduce distress and improve daily functioning.
Her background includes outpatient specialty clinics, crisis intervention, inpatient programs, and federal programs. That mix informs how she balances short-term solutions with deeper exploration of patterns that keep people stuck. She draws on practical techniques that clients can use between sessions.
Therapeutic methods she uses include cognitive behavioral strategies, mindfulness skills, psychodynamic ideas about patterns, and solution-focused techniques. She also incorporates trauma-focused work and skills for relaxation and behavior change when helpful.
Fraser pays attention to the role of family, work or school, and faith or spirituality when those things matter to a person’s recovery. She often addresses caregiver stress, communication problems, attachment concerns, body image, and life transitions alongside core mental health symptoms.
People can expect clear talk about goals and concrete homework or exercises to try between sessions. Her style aims to make therapy feel practical and relevant to everyday life.
BHow sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client's lead. It helps clarify goals and priorities and is useful for anxiety, relationship strains, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; it is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and anger. Mindfulness Therapy introduces simple attention and breathing practices to reduce stress and improve emotional regulation.Deciding which approach to use is a shared process. The therapist will work with the client to pick methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That might mean starting with practical CBT tools, adding mindfulness exercises, or exploring patterns that come from psychodynamic ideas as needed.
The practical upside of online sessions is they can fit more easily into a busy week. Confirm the current session formats before booking since the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to schedule short check-ins, avoid travel time, or do sessions in a setting with quieter surroundings when needed. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework so the work continues effectively between sessions.
