My therapeutic approach is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, TF- CBT, and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy.
Welcome, as it takes courage for us to ask for help from others and seek therapy. I am here to tell you that it is okay to ask for help and seeking a professional therapist is the first step in your journey. Life is hard at times, with a multitude of life transitions, from graduating from high school to finishing college, starting a new job, or having feelings of being stuck either personally and/or professionally. Life is not an easy road to travel, but as we travel through different life challenges, sometimes we need help from others and it’s okay to seek help.

Starting in 2019 during my counseling residency, I have participated in trainings as well as obtained certifications in therapy models, including certification in A-CRA and CT-R as well as trained in TF- CBT, DBT, mindfulness CBT.
I am L. Elizabeth Shelton, GA LPC 008242 and have been fully licensed since 2012, originally in Virginia and since 2015 in Georgia.

I have experience working with a wide range of areas/conditions, though most often focus on helping individuals with depression, anxiety, emotional dysregulation, and trauma.

Whether by choice or circumstance, we sometimes find ourselves in continuous cycles. Either way this can be tough. One important factor is not holding on to blame, shame, anger, guilt and unforgiveness. These emotions influence our thoughts, behaviors, and actions. Consequences of unwanted repetitive patterns are typically unfavorable. A second important factor is recognizing your power to overcome obstacles. Sometimes life's challenges help uncover how much we can handle. A third important factor is knowing you're not alone. I will help you along your journey as you develop skills to identify, manage, heal and grow.

Every life has its share of challenges and my passion is to work with individuals to reduce the impact and influence of painful thoughts and feelings and to take action to build a life that's rich, full, and meaningful. This looks different for everyone and because of this I strongly believe that every therapeutic experience needs to be tailored to each individual's needs, strengths, goals, and values. In other words, therapy is by no means a "one size fits all" undertaking. After deciding how one wants their life to look, it is a matter of figuring out what needs to be done to get them from where they are to where they want to be.

Even during the best of times navigating the complexities and demands of life can be challenging, and at this time in history we all face life situations for which we may not be entirely equipped. Despite the news of the day in the world around us, now is always a good time to begin a journey of healing. Such a journey brings new perspective and also reveals hidden strengths and skills. Thus, in addition to resolving issues I also see as a goal of counseling for clients to find increased meaning and joy in life. In 2009 I graduated from Brenau University with a master’s degree in Clinical Counseling.

I believe we need to feel it to heal it! What exactly does that mean? We all have an individual journey to navigate and the best way to attain balance is learning how to trust someone with life “lived” experiences, empathy, failures and successes. We deserve the opportunity of experiencing at least one genuine relationship with a trusted professional that will keep it real. Once we believe we are seen & heard, our self-worth shows up in unimaginable ways. I am prepared to support you along this process if you commit to showing up for you. As long as you try, change is doable and new habits will foster lasting, healthy relationships.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) Therapists
How does cognitive behavioral therapy work?
Cognitive behavioral therapy works by exploring how your thoughts affect your emotions and experiences. CBT helps you identify distortions in your thinking. For example, you may tend to jump to the worst case scenario catastrophizing or think in extremes (all-or-nothing thinking). A therapist can teach you how to push back against those thoughts to ultimately change your feelings and behavior for the better. They can also provide coping skills to better deal with stressors and challenges.
When do I know to seek treatment with cognitive behavioral therapy?
It’s reasonable to consider cognitive behavioral therapy if you struggle to manage difficult emotions or behaviors to such an extent that you are not getting the most out of life on a day-to-day basis. If you want a shorter term, concrete, skills-based approach, CBT is a great option. (By contrast, other types of therapy may devote more time to exploring your past and its effects.) The decision to seek CBT also depends on the condition you’re treating; CBT is an effective treatment for anxiety, depression, trauma, and many other disorders.
How can I find a cognitive behavioral therapist for someone else?
To find a cognitive behavioral therapist for someone else, you may want to begin by discussing the person’s problem, researching cognitive behavioral therapy, and assessing whether the approach is the right fit. You could then reach out to a few cognitive behavioral therapists in this directory, explain the scenario, have a consultation with those available, and determine who could be a good match.
Why is CBT such a popular form of therapy?
CBT has become a popular form of therapy because it is effective and accessible. Robust research has demonstrated that CBT is an effective treatment for many mental health conditions. And CBT can be learned in relatively few sessions, which means that many people can engage in the process, afford it, and see results quickly. It involves learning concrete skills such as disputing unhelpful thoughts; these skills can also be taught and spread widely.
