About Elizabeth
Elizabeth Koenig is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Colorado. She draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to help people manage difficult feelings and change unhelpful habits. Elizabeth aims to be warm and straightforward so people feel heard and understood.
She has three years of clinical experience across inpatient care, crisis settings, and outpatient community treatment. That range means she has seen people at different stages of struggle and recovery.
How Elizabeth works
Elizabeth often brings her black lab, Maggie, to sessions to help ease anxiety and create a calmer atmosphere. Elizabeth focuses on LGBT concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, and depression. She also helps with body image, caregiver stress, control issues, guilt and shame, and questions about life purpose.
Other areas she works with include mood disorders, post-traumatic stress, self-harm, sexuality, social anxiety and phobia, women’s issues, and young adult concerns. In sessions she leans on cognitive behavioral approaches that connect feelings, thoughts, and actions. That means the work often includes identifying patterns, trying practical strategies, and testing new ways of responding.
Elizabeth aims to make the process collaborative and goal-focused. People who choose Elizabeth can expect clear communication and practical steps between sessions. She invites clients to set small, achievable goals and track progress over time.
Her style is direct but compassionate, with attention to safety and pacing.

How cognitive behavioral techniques translate to online care
Elizabeth uses evidence-based cognitive behavioral approaches that help people notice links between thoughts, emotions, and actions. That work often involves tracking patterns, testing small behavior changes, and practicing new skills between sessions. These steps translate well to video or phone sessions because they focus on concrete exercises and homework.She also draws on trauma-informed methods to help people process distressing experiences at a manageable pace. Trauma-focused work emphasizes stabilizing skills first, then gentle exploration of painful memories when the person is ready. This approach suits concerns like post-traumatic stress, grief, and complex emotional reactions.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will ask about needs, goals, and preferences and tailor techniques as the work unfolds. Clients and the therapist try strategies and adjust them based on what helps most.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls let people work face to face; phone sessions require less bandwidth and can be easier during busy days. Live chat or text messaging can serve as quick check-ins or supplemental support between longer sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or caregiving schedules without a commute.
