Elizabeth Swift

Elizabeth Swift is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, and life changes. She commonly supports concerns related to narcissism, panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, and issues tied to sexual assault or domestic violence. Elizabeth practices from Pennsylvania and conducts sessions by video and phone only, using text just for brief general questions.

Her style is warm and collaborative. She listens first, then works with each person to spot repeating patterns and make small changes that add up. Sessions focus on practical skills for calming the nervous system, managing panic, and coping with flashbacks or intrusive memories.

Elizabeth uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and combines them with body-focused methods. She brings mindfulness, nervous-system regulation, and somatic practices into conversations about trauma and recovery. This blend is meant to help people feel more grounded and in control between sessions.

She has ten years of clinical experience and maintains a compassionate, nonjudgmental stance. Clients can expect to explore both current challenges and sources of resilience. The work emphasizes building tools for day-to-day life as well as processing difficult experiences.

Therapy is arranged through a short matching process where people select Start Therapy, complete a questionnaire, and schedule sessions according to availability. Costs vary with location and therapist availability, and the subscription used for sessions can be canceled at any time.

Evidence-based approaches used in online sessions

Elizabeth draws on proven, practical methods to address trauma and anxiety. One approach she uses focuses on nervous-system regulation and somatic work, which helps people notice body signals and learn simple grounding tools to reduce panic and overwhelm. Another approach incorporates mindfulness-based practices, teaching attention skills that improve emotional awareness and steadying during stressful moments.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She collaborates with each person to test methods, adjust techniques, and decide what fits best with their needs and goals. That way the plan evolves based on what actually helps the client feel more stable and able to cope.

Sessions are offered by video and phone only, with text used for brief general questions. If you want a different format, confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make therapy easier to fit into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow check-ins during workday breaks or evenings. They also let people work from a familiar setting while practicing grounding and regulation skills in real time.
