About Elizabeth
Dr. Elizabeth Franklin is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri with 20 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, and anger. She also helps people dealing with relationship and family concerns, grief, parenting strain, and career pressures.
Her sessions focus on practical, usable strategies rather than abstract theory. She uses Client-Centered Therapy to understand a person’s perspective and build trust. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to map out unhelpful thinking and Solution-Focused Therapy to set short-term, achievable goals.
In the room Dr. Franklin listens for the patterns that keep problems repeating. She helps name those patterns and tries small changes that create relief. For someone snapping at loved ones or struggling with simmering resentment, she breaks issues into concrete steps to try between sessions.
She often works with people who are juggling work stress, caregiving responsibilities, or big life transitions. Her approach is straightforward: identify what isn’t working, try interventions that address it, and check what’s changed. Progress is measured by changes in daily functioning and relationships, not by labels.
Dr. Franklin speaks English and practices in Missouri. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online therapy options button.
How sessions work
Approach and what to expect from online sessions
Dr. Franklin uses Client-Centered Therapy to focus on each person’s perspective. That means the first work is listening carefully and reflecting what matters to the client so goals come from the client's own concerns. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify thoughts and behaviors that fuel anger and stress, and to test new ways of responding.Solution-Focused Therapy is also part of her practice. It homes in on small, achievable changes and measurable short-term goals. Together with the client she chooses which techniques to try and reviews what helped or didn’t between sessions. Finding the best approach is a collaborative process based on needs, goals, and personal preference.

Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time around work or caregiving. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT and solution-focused tools to online sessions so you can practice skills and track progress in daily life.
