About Elizabeth Black

Elizabeth Black earned a Master of Counseling from Spring Arbor University in 2015 and brings a long-held interest in people, stories, and truth to her counseling work. She views therapy as a chance to explore honest insight about oneself, others, and the world, and she aims to build an authentic connection that makes the vulnerability of that process more approachable.

She has worked with individuals facing depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, major life transitions, grief and loss, difficult relationships, communication challenges, and boundary setting. She is especially passionate about supporting young adults as they navigate the many stressors that arise during that stage of life, while also drawing on experience with a diverse range of clients.

Her personal style is laid back and highly relational, focused on creating a genuine therapeutic relationship where personal discovery and growth can occur. She offers thoughtful challenge to unhelpful thought patterns, practical feedback, and recommendations for helpful resources to support progress.

Elizabeth approaches the decision to pursue therapy as an act of courage and wisdom. She considers it an honor to hear each person’s story and to support them through current struggles, believing there is no issue too small to address and that people do not need to face life alone.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Sessions

Elizabeth Black often draws on client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and mindfulness techniques in her work. Client-centered therapy emphasizes a warm, nonjudgmental relationship in which the therapist listens and reflects to help the client discover their own goals and solutions - it is especially helpful for building self-understanding and strengthening relationships. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress and to teach practical coping strategies. Mindfulness therapy introduces present-moment awareness and gentle acceptance practices to help manage emotional reactivity, improve attention, and support stress reduction.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Elizabeth collaborates with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She works with clients to try strategies, assess what helps, and adapt the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and to maintain continuity of care from different locations, while still benefiting from the guidance of licensed professionals and therapists who tailor treatment to each individual.
