AAbout
About Elizabeth
Elizabeth Moonan is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Virginia with nine years of clinical experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, bipolar disorder, depression, relationship and family concerns, addictions, self-esteem, career stress, and compassion fatigue.
She uses straightforward, interactive conversations in sessions. Her goal is to help people talk through current problems, find practical steps, and connect therapy to other supports such as medication or community resources when helpful. Sessions focus on day-to-day challenges as well as longer-term patterns that affect mood and relationships.
Her approach draws on cognitive-behavioral ideas alongside strengths-based and person-centered ways of working. That means she looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going, notices existing skills, and follows the client's lead in planning next steps. She offers a mix of practical tools and reflective conversation.
Elizabeth pays attention to how stress shows up in work, money, health, and family life. She also addresses issues like attachment and abandonment, codependency, body image, eating and substance-related concerns, money problems, and loneliness. Clients can expect clear, goal-focused sessions that aim to make everyday life more manageable.
Her practice views therapy as one part of a larger plan. She will discuss how other supports could fit into treatment and help people figure out what to try next. Elizabeth works in English and is based in Virginia.
BHow sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions fit
Elizabeth uses cognitive-behavioral techniques to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. That approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress because it breaks problems into concrete thoughts and actions that can be practiced between sessions.She also works from a strengths-based and person-centered stance. Strengths-based work highlights what is already working and builds practical skills. Person-centered work means the therapist follows the client's goals and preferences during planning and conversation.
Choosing an approach is collaborative. The therapist will help you figure out which methods make sense based on your concerns, goals, and day-to-day life. It is common to try a mix of techniques and adjust them as you go.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make fitting therapy into a busy schedule easier, such as allowing shorter check-ins during a work break or reducing travel time. They can also accommodate different ways of connecting for people who prefer not to be on camera or who need lower bandwidth options. Ask about available formats and practical scheduling when you complete the matching questionnaire.
