Elizabeth Shartle is a licensed clinical counselor practicing in Ohio who also holds licensure to practice in California. She brings 15 years of experience working with adults facing addiction, anxiety, grief, and depression, and she frequently supports people impacted by past trauma, family conflict, and struggles with motivation and self-esteem.
Her approach is collaborative and person-centered - she aims to walk alongside people who are hurting, offering understanding and encouragement while listening to each person’s story. Together she helps clients develop practical plans to move forward, focusing on behavioral strategies and strengthening interpersonal skills.
Elizabeth draws on the principles of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which emphasizes living in alignment with personal values so clients can make intentional choices and feel more satisfied with those choices. Her work is guided by respect and genuine care, and she values the opportunity to support people as they pursue meaningful change in their lives.
Many people ask whether online therapy truly helps. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person sessions for most people.
One major benefit is convenience - clients can connect with a therapist in the format that best fits their needs, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility makes it easier to access care amid busy schedules or other commitments.
Sessions are provided by licensed professionals, and clients may choose to change therapists at any time if they seek a different fit. Online therapy offers a practical option for many people seeking support while maintaining the same kinds of therapeutic goals and approaches used in face-to-face work.
