About Elizabeth
Elizabeth Swift is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, and major life changes. She has particular experience supporting concerns such as panic disorder and panic attacks. Her style is compassionate and collaborative, and she aims to create a calm space where clients can talk through what feels overwhelming.
She offers therapy by video and phone, and uses text only for brief general questions. In sessions she focuses on identifying repeated patterns and processing painful events. She also works with somatic approaches that pay attention to body sensations and nervous system responses.
Elizabeth combines therapeutic techniques with mindfulness and regulation skills. That means clients learn practical tools they can use between sessions to manage anxiety and panic symptoms. She emphasizes small steps that build a sense of safety and control over time.
Her work often includes exploring the roots of problems such as family of origin issues, codependency, or substance use, while also addressing questions about identity, relationships, and life purpose. She is used to working with trauma-related concerns including post-traumatic stress and sexual assault and abuse.
Elizabeth has ten years of clinical experience and practices in Pennsylvania as an LPC. Sessions are offered in English and are arranged through the site matching and scheduling process.
How her approaches fit an online therapy plan
Elizabeth uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on the body and on processing traumatic memories. One approach emphasizes somatic work and nervous system regulation, teaching clients how physical sensations and breathing connect to anxiety and panic. These skills help when panic symptoms feel sudden or overwhelming. Another approach she uses involves mindfulness-based practices, which teach simple attention and grounding skills to reduce reactivity and increase moment-to-moment clarity.Finding the right blend of methods is part of the work together. The therapist will help clients decide which techniques fit best based on their goals and what feels manageable. This is a collaborative process that adjusts as needs change over time.
Practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and the ability to keep sessions while balancing work or caregiving. Because she offers video and phone sessions, people can choose the format that best fits their day and comfort level. Confirm current session options before booking to make sure the chosen format works for you.
