About Elizabeth

Elizabeth (Lizzy) Campbell is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Illinois who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, grief, and parenting challenges. She also supports people coping with adoption and foster care concerns, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and issues around self-esteem and life changes. Lizzy writes plainly and works alongside clients to set realistic goals and steps forward.

Her style is warm, direct, and collaborative. Sessions focus on practical skills and honest conversation rather than jargon. She emphasizes building a strong working relationship and creating a calm space for people to talk through painful experiences.

Over six years of practice, Lizzy has worked with survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault, and has experience with trauma that comes from a range of difficult life events. She brings that background to sessions in ways that respect each person’s pace and readiness to heal.

Her approach blends client-centered care with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and solution-focused strategies to address day-to-day problems. She also uses Jungian ideas and motivational interviewing to help people clarify values and motivation.

Clients can expect straightforward treatment plans, clear goals, and a mix of exploration and skill-building. The aim is to restore a sense of control and forward motion, whether the priority is improving sleep, managing anger, handling work stress, or navigating adoption and foster care questions.

How her approaches translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person in the room, listening closely and following what matters most to them. It helps when the immediate goal is to be heard and to set priorities for change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches straightforward tools to reduce anxiety, improve sleep, and ease mood problems. Solution-Focused Therapy zeroes in on practical steps and small changes that move someone toward their goals in short order.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they will try methods that fit the client’s needs and adjust the plan over time based on what works.

If you are thinking about online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking since formats were not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when life gets hectic, and reduce travel time. Therapists can still use the same CBT tools, motivational interviewing conversations, and client-centered listening in remote sessions, while focusing on practical steps that fit everyday life.
