About Elizbeth
Elizbeth Keeney is a licensed clinical social worker with thirty years of experience helping people who feel anxious, empty, detached, or overwhelmed. She works with individuals who are coping with stress, grief, depression, anger, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, and other life changes. Her approach is steady and direct, aimed at helping people feel more grounded and understood.
She begins therapy by listening closely and asking questions with genuine curiosity.
Background and approach
Elizbeth looks for patterns that come from early interruptions in important relationships. Those patterns can show up as anxiety, compulsions, agitation, or trouble forming satisfying adult connections. In sessions she offers honest, empathic feedback alongside practical reflection.
Clients are invited to notice defenses, name feelings, and try different ways of relating. Work in therapy often includes looking back at formative experiences and linking them to current struggles. Elizbeth uses Attachment-Based Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Therapy to guide the work.
That means she pays attention to how past relationships shape current behavior and helps people process painful events. She aims to help clients integrate their experience so they can make different choices in daily life. She holds licenses in New York and New Jersey as an LCSW.
Elizbeth continues professional development through workshops and trainings, and she invites prospective clients to reach out to explore whether her style fits their needs.

How her approaches work online and in session
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape how people feel and act now. It helps when someone struggles with trust, closeness, or recurring conflicts in relationships by tracking patterns and practicing new ways of relating.Psychodynamic Therapy looks at long-standing thoughts and feelings that influence behavior. It uses careful conversation to bring hidden patterns into awareness so people can make different choices and feel less stuck.
Trauma-Focused Therapy helps people process and make sense of painful events so those memories stop driving daily reactions. It aims to reduce ongoing symptoms that come from past trauma and to build skills for coping with triggers.
Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust as the work unfolds.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when seeing facial cues matters. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging work for brief check-ins, coaching-style support, or when writing helps clarify thoughts. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel schedules while keeping the work consistent.
