About Elizabeth
Elizabeth Wilde is an Ohio-licensed independent social worker (LISW) with six years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are coping with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, grief, addiction, and anger. She also addresses career concerns, relationship and family issues, LGBT matters, bipolar disorder, compassion fatigue, and related challenges.
Her style is direct and practical. Sessions focus on reducing negative self-talk and unhelpful thinking patterns. She uses concrete strategies drawn from evidence-based approaches to help people manage strong emotions and restore everyday functioning.
Elizabeth draws on several therapeutic methods, including cognitive behavioral techniques and skills from dialectical behavior therapy to help people notice triggers and change responses. She also uses eye movement desensitization and reprocessing methods and motivational interviewing to address traumatic memories and increase readiness for change.
People can expect a collaborative process that looks at what they want to change and how to get there. Elizabeth emphasizes clear steps, homework when helpful, and straightforward skill practice between sessions. The work aims to reduce reactive behavior, improve coping, and rebuild confidence.
She provides services in English and practices in Ohio. To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule an initial session to set goals and plan next steps.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions
Elizabeth frequently uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT helps people break cycles of reactive thinking and build clearer strategies for managing anger and anxiety.She also incorporates dialectical behavior therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. These skills are practical tools for handling intense feelings, calming down more quickly, and communicating without escalation.
Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing is another approach she uses to address traumatic memories that can fuel anger and distress. This method works on processing past events so they have less emotional charge and interfere less with daily life.
Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to identify goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust as needed. Clients help set priorities and decide which tools to practice between sessions.
Confirm the specific session formats available before booking since formats were not detailed in the profile. Online sessions can make it easier to fit work on anger into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, or avoid travel time. A therapist and client can choose pacing and session length that fit real life while focusing on practical skills and progress.
