About Elizabeth
Elizabeth Baumann is a licensed clinical social worker with six years of experience helping people recover from trauma and rebuild confidence. She holds LCSW and LMSW credentials and practices from Michigan. Her work focuses on clear, practical steps so clients can feel steadier day to day.
She guides people who have faced sexual assault, relationship violence, or other traumatic events. Elizabeth also supports those exploring sexuality and questions about identity within the LGBT community.
How Elizabeth works
She pays attention to how past hurts affect current relationships and self-worth. Sessions are conversational and goal-focused. Elizabeth uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early connections shape current needs.
She also uses Trauma-Focused Therapy to address how trauma is remembered in the body and mind, often through paced, manageable work. Clients can expect direct but compassionate guidance, help naming painful patterns, and strategies to reduce shame and guilt. Elizabeth emphasizes small changes that add up, such as building safer boundaries and strengthening self-love.
Her approach is collaborative: she works with each person to set realistic goals and pick tools that fit their life. People looking for support around relationships, identity, or the effects of trauma may find her approach straightforward and practical.

Online support options
Attachment and Trauma Work Online
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early connections shape current relationships and feelings. In practice this means noticing common patterns in how people give and ask for support, then trying new ways to get needs met. Trauma-Focused Therapy addresses how painful events remain in memory and the body; work is paced and focused on reducing the intensity of distressing memories and reactions.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Elizabeth will collaborate with each person to choose which methods fit their goals and comfort level. She discusses options, checks in about how techniques feel, and adjusts the plan together as progress unfolds.
Online sessions can be done by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for many people who want face-to-face conversation, phone can work when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in is needed, and messaging is helpful for shorter updates or when writing feels easier. These options make scheduling more flexible and help therapy fit into busy lives, evenings, or work breaks.
