Elisa Frazier , LCSW

Elisa Frazier is a licensed clinical social worker with a decade of experience supporting people facing mood, stress, and behavioral challenges. She holds master degrees in both social work and clinical psychology and practices as an LCSW - a Licensed Clinical Social Worker - offering informed, clinical care rooted in evidence-based methods.

Elisa most often draws from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, while also integrating training in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), client-centered therapy, dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), motivational interviewing, psychodynamic approaches, and solution-focused work. This range allows her to tailor interventions to each person rather than using a one-size-fits-all model.

She has worked with individuals from many backgrounds who cope with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, thought disorders, anger and anger management, parenting challenges, trauma and abuse, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. Elisa emphasizes a collaborative pace - clients set the speed of change and she supports each step with practical tools and skill-building. Her approach combines structured techniques and empathic listening to help people move toward a more satisfying life, regardless of where they begin.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with Elisa Frazier

Elisa commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a practical, skills-based approach that helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and develop strategies to respond differently. CBT can be applied to anxiety, depression, anger, and many everyday stressors.

She also incorporates Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness skills. DBT strategies are often helpful for intense emotions and relationship difficulties.

Client-centered therapy is another element of her work, providing an empathic, nonjudgmental space where clients guide the conversation and priorities while the therapist offers support and reflection.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Elisa collaborates with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting direction as progress unfolds.

Online sessions - including video calls, phone appointments, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. These options support flexibility in scheduling, allow consistent contact between sessions when needed, and let clients access licensed professionals and therapists from their own communities.
