Elizabeth Swift , LPC

Elizabeth Swift is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 10 years of clinical experience who focuses on helping people recover from trauma and navigate major life transitions. She offers a compassionate, collaborative, and individualized approach that attends to emotional, physical, and relational aspects of healing. Trained in EMDR and Brainspotting, she combines these evidence-based methods with somatic techniques, nervous system regulation, and mindfulness-based practices to support sustained change and relief from symptoms.

Elizabeth specializes in work with trauma, post-traumatic stress, anxiety, and the challenges that accompany life changes, while also supporting people facing addictions, relationship difficulties, and identity-related concerns. In sessions she aims to create a nonjudgmental environment where clients can explore patterns, process painful experiences, and build practical skills to feel more grounded and empowered. She works best with clients who are ready to examine both their struggles and their capacity for resilience and growth.

Therapy is conducted over video and phone sessions only, and text is used only for general questions. As an LPC, Elizabeth provides clinical care rooted in training and evidence-based techniques, tailoring interventions to each personâs needs and goals.

Trauma-focused techniques and online therapeutic access

Elizabeth Swift draws on several targeted, evidence-based approaches to help clients process difficult experiences and reduce symptoms. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) uses guided bilateral stimulation alongside focused memory work to reduce the intensity of traumatic memories and associated emotional distress. Brainspotting locates and processes trauma-related material through eye positions that correlate with stored emotional experiences, often providing access to deeper, nonverbal material. Somatic techniques focus on bodily sensations and nervous system regulation, teaching clients skills to recognize and shift physiological responses tied to stress and anxiety.

Choosing the right combination of methods is part of the therapeutic process. Elizabeth collaborates with each person to assess goals, preferences, and responses to different techniques, adapting the plan as healing progresses. This collaborative stance helps clients feel more engaged and supported as they try approaches that fit their needs.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility in delivering these techniques. Sessions can take place by video or phone, and therapists can follow up through live chat or text-based messaging to support continuity of care. These options make scheduling easier, reduce travel barriers, and allow clients to access licensed professionals from locations that suit their daily lives.
