About Elizabeth

Elizabeth "Lisa" Burdick is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina with 20 years of experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, parenting strains, and relationship concerns. Sessions address practical problems like anger, low self-esteem, career stress, and coping with life transitions.

Lisa uses client-centered methods and cognitive behavioral techniques to keep sessions grounded and practical. She often draws on mindfulness and solution-focused strategies when they fit the concern. Motivational interviewing is used when people are working through substance use or wanting to make behavior changes.

She has worked across settings that include school counseling and military-connected populations, and she notes experience supporting young adults in particular. That background informs a straightforward style that focuses on what can change now and next. She also integrates spiritual or religious beliefs when clients want that included.

Clients can expect conversations that look at thoughts, behaviors, and small steps to shift patterns. Lisa pays attention to cultural and multicultural factors that shape family and parenting stresses. She also addresses adoption and foster care, caregiver strain, postpartum and pregnancy-related concerns, and veteran issues.

Her practice supports people with mood disorders, ADHD, social anxiety, and a range of addiction concerns. Work often centers on developing coping skills, improving communication, and clarifying goals for daily life. To begin, readers follow the site's steps to match and schedule an initial session.

How sessions work

How Lisa’s approaches translate to online work

Client-centered therapy focuses on the client’s perspective and goals. It means the therapist listens closely, reflects what matters to the client, and helps shape sessions around the person’s priorities. This approach can help with family stress, parenting challenges, and relationship concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. Sessions often include identifying unhelpful thinking, trying small behavioral experiments, and practicing new skills. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, anger, and mood concerns.

Mindfulness therapy adds simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase awareness. It can be useful for stress, emotional regulation, and coping with life transitions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels helpful. That collaborative process guides whether more CBT, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, or solution-focused steps are used.

The original biography does not specify which online session formats are offered. Confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce time spent traveling. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and skill practice to work well in virtual appointments, while keeping the focus on clear, practical steps for home life.
