About Elizabeth

Elizabeth Munson is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York with six years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and concerns around self-esteem and relationships. Elizabeth also lists social anxiety and phobia among her focus areas.

She has provided care in settings that include home and community based services. That background means she is used to practical work that connects to everyday life. Her experience includes supporting people with panic attacks, mood disorders, postpartum depression, agoraphobia, and difficulties related to impulsivity and isolation.

Elizabeth uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques such as cognitive behavioral strategies and acceptance and commitment approaches. In sessions she helps people notice patterns of thought and behavior, practice manageable experiments, and build clearer ways to communicate with others. She also addresses problems that come up around divorce, guilt, shame, and communication breakdowns.

People who meet with her can expect straightforward, skill-focused sessions. She aims to help people find ways to reduce distress and handle moments that feel overwhelming. Elizabeth speaks English and works from her New York license, LMHC, when providing care.

Evidence-based approaches for online sessions

Elizabeth uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people spot and change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors. This approach often includes short, practical exercises and experiments that people can try between sessions to reduce anxiety and improve daily functioning.

She also uses elements of acceptance and commitment work, which focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that match personal values. This can help with avoidance, stress related to performance, and managing social anxiety symptoms in real situations.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist and client collaborate to decide which techniques fit current goals, concerns, and preferences. That may mean combining strategies or trying different methods until a good fit emerges.

The original biography did not list which session formats are offered, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. They also make it possible to practice skills in real-life settings and bring those experiences back into sessions for discussion.
