About Elisabeth

Elisabeth Burn is a New York licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with ten years of experience in community mental health settings.

Background and approach

She has supported people facing a broad range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and domestic violence, perinatal and postnatal mood concerns, and challenges related to addiction, grief, and career or life transitions. Elisabeth emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental stance that honors each person's strengths and lived experience.

Her style is warm, interactive, and tailored to the individual; she draws on cognitive behavioral techniques alongside dialectical behavior strategies and client-centered principles to create flexible, strength-based plans. Elisabeth aims to collaborate with clients to identify practical skills and coping strategies while exploring patterns that contribute to distress.

She frames therapy as a partnership focused on growth, resilience, and clearer pathways forward. Elisabeth works in English and holds NY LMHC 007615-01.

Prospective clients in New York can expect an empathetic clinician who prioritizes sensitivity and practical support as they work toward meaningful change.

Approaches and Online Support for Practical Change

Elisabeth integrates cognitive behavioral strategies that focus on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and developing concrete skills to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. She also uses client-centered methods that prioritize empathy, active listening, and the client's own goals so that treatment feels individualized and respectful. In addition, dialectical behavior therapy techniques may be employed to teach skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication when intense feelings arise.

Finding the right combination of methods is part of the therapeutic process, and Elisabeth treats that as a collaborative exploration. She will work with each client to select approaches that fit their needs, values, and goals, adjusting techniques over time as progress and preferences become clearer.

Online sessions make it possible to access this mix of evidence-informed approaches through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These formats provide flexibility for scheduling, allow continuity of care when life is busy or travel is necessary, and offer multiple avenues for practicing skills between meetings to support steady progress.
