About Eliza
Eliza Adams is an LCPC (Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor) and an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) with 18 years of experience. She is licensed in Alabama and Illinois and works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, low self-esteem, depression, and life changes. Her focus also includes chronic pain and illness, codependency, family of origin issues, guilt and shame, and related concerns.
She keeps sessions direct and practical. Conversations look at current problems and what feels unmanageable now. She helps people name the feelings that get in the way, and then looks for steps that can reduce overwhelm in daily life.
Her style is collaborative. She listens to the facts you bring, and then offers approaches that match your goals and preferences. She places particular attention on patterns that come from family background and on how guilt and shame affect decisions and relationships.
Eliza draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address mood, motivation, and addictive behaviors. She also supports people who are coping with chronic illness or persistent pain, helping them adjust expectations and find workable routines.
People meet with her to sort through problems, try different ways of responding, and track what helps over time. Sessions aim to be straightforward and focused on real-life improvements rather than abstract theory.
Evidence-based approaches and online sessions
Eliza uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address mood, anxiety, and addictive behaviors. One approach focuses on changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns by identifying problematic thoughts and testing small behavioral changes; this helps with anxiety, low mood, and motivation. Another approach concentrates on coping strategies for addiction and relapse prevention by building routines, recognizing triggers, and practicing alternative responses to urges.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. She will help you decide which methods match your situation, goals, and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can be adjusted as you learn what helps.
