About Elizabeth

Elizabeth Feagin is an LCSW with 13 years of clinical experience, primarily working in mental health and substance use settings. She recently retired from the VA after 15 years and brings that background to her work with people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma and depression.

Background and approach

Her practice emphasizes practical steps and compassionate listening to help clients move toward clearer coping strategies and healthier patterns. Elizabeth combines client-centered care with evidence-informed techniques to address issues such as drug and alcohol addiction, post-traumatic stress, mood disorders, social anxiety, and feelings of isolation or purposelessness.

She also supports people wrestling with forgiveness, relationship struggles, and the impacts of traumatic events. Sessions focus on identifying goals, building motivation for change, and applying tools that fit each person’s daily life.

Clients who choose Elizabeth can expect a collaborative, down-to-earth approach that pairs empathic understanding with goal-oriented methods like cognitive behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing. She practices in Florida and conducts sessions in English via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, and does not accept international clients.

Approaches That Translate Well to Online Care



Elizabeth integrates cognitive behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing into her online practice. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can help with anxiety, mood disorders, and symptoms of post-traumatic stress by teaching practical coping skills and behavioral experiments. Motivational interviewing is a collaborative, client-centered method that helps people strengthen their own motivation to change, often used for substance use concerns and building commitment to recovery.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Elizabeth works collaboratively with each person to determine what methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors sessions to individual circumstances and remains flexible about adapting techniques as progress unfolds.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access for those balancing work, family, or mobility constraints. These formats allow for consistent engagement and make it easier to apply therapeutic tools between sessions, while scheduling can be arranged to suit different routines and time zones within the United States.
