About Elizabeth

Elizabeth "Liz" Lehnes is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing family conflict, grief, depression, and major life changes.

Background and approach

Together she and a client look for small, usable changes rather than long lists of abstract goals. Her approach combines listening with practical problem solving. Liz helps people sort out communication problems, money stress, and questions about life purpose.

She also supports those dealing with body image concerns, attachment struggles, chronic illness or pain, sexuality, women’s issues, and workplace stress. Liz has six years of professional experience as an LCSW in North Carolina. That background includes helping people manage grief and loss and steadying mood concerns during times of change.

She aims to make starting therapy feel doable and clear. In sessions she focuses on concrete steps, clearer communication, and building self-compassion. The goal is to leave with tools you can use between appointments.

Liz invites clients to take small steps toward more manageable days.

Approaches and online care that fit your life

Many clients benefit from approaches that combine careful listening with practical skills for daily life. One common approach focuses on clear communication and problem solving to improve relationships and workplace challenges; it helps people break down problems into steps they can try between sessions. Another helpful approach centers on coping skills for mood and grief, teaching techniques to manage low mood, handle loss, and build small routines that feel stabilizing.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will work with each person to figure out which methods match their goals, needs, and preferences. That collaborative planning may shift over time as progress is made or new challenges arise.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let people use visual cues and deeper conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat can suit quick check-ins or brief workdays, and text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and different daily routines.
