About me

I am a licensed clinical counselor in Ohio. For over fifteen years, I have worked with adults with addiction, anxiety, grief and depression. Many of my clients experienced past trauma, family conflicts, and issues with motivation and self-esteem.

My vision of counseling is to come along side the person who is hurting to offer understanding and encouragement as you share your story so that together we can figure out a plan for moving forward. My counseling techniques emphasize behavioral strategies and interpersonal skills, while drawing on the tenets of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). ACT emphasizes living and engaging in life according to your values so that you make intentional choices and feel better with the choices you make. My overall approach is person-centered, and our interaction will always be underscored by respect and genuine care.

We want our lives to matter, and we want to be important to those we love. Being seen and heard is crucial, and sometimes, just feeling understood for a moment is priceless. I am very grateful to have the opportunity to work with you here in this forum!

Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Elizabeth Shartle. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.

I appreciate Elizabeth so so so much. She has helped me process so many of my jumbled thoughts and feelings. She is so understanding and empathetic and really listens to what you are saying, while still being able to provide professional and unbiased responses. She takes the time to really think about her responses and I think that truly reflects what an empathetic person she is and how passionate she is to help her clients. I still have so much to work through and I'm glad I am able to be comfortable enough to speak with someone who has so much knowledge and experience.
