About Elizabeth
Elizabeth "Lisa" Burdick brings a practical, evidence-informed orientation to therapy grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy while maintaining a warm, client-centered stance.
Background and approach
With two decades of clinical work, she combines structured skills training with empathetic listening to help people navigate stress, anxiety, mood concerns, substance use, relationship difficulties, grief, and life transitions. Her practice emphasizes cultural sensitivity and respect for each person’s background and beliefs, and she adapts interventions to fit a client’s values and circumstances.
Lisa has worked broadly across concerns such as parenting, career stress, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and addiction, along with additional focuses including adoption and foster care, caregiver stress, aging issues, postpartum concerns, and multicultural challenges.
Licensed in both North Carolina and South Carolina, she draws on client-centered methods, mindfulness practices, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused techniques to help clients set practical goals and build coping strategies. Her approach is collaborative and tailored, aiming to help people develop tools for managing symptoms and improving everyday functioning.
Evidence-Informed Therapies Delivered Online
Lisa often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical skills for managing symptoms like anxiety, depression, and stress. She also incorporates Client-Centered Therapy, offering a respectful, nonjudgmental space where a person’s values and experiences guide the pace and focus of work. Both approaches support concrete goal-setting and problem solving for daily life challenges.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process; Lisa collaborates with each client to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts interventions over time, combining strategies such as mindfulness or motivational interviewing when they fit a client’s situation, so therapy remains responsive and practical.
Online sessions are available via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for people with busy schedules or limited local options. These formats make it easier to access consistent care, practice skills between sessions, and maintain momentum while balancing work, family, or other responsibilities.
