Dr. Elizabeth "Beth" Warnes

Dr. Elizabeth "Beth" Warnes helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, parenting struggles, and depression. She also focuses on caregiver stress, communication problems, divorce and separation, and feelings like guilt, shame, and isolation. Beth is a Wisconsin psychologist with two decades of experience and uses a straightforward, compassionate approach in sessions.

Beth leans on what the person in the room brings. She listens carefully and reflects what she hears so people can better understand their own thoughts and feelings. Sessions aim to strengthen communication and rebuild connections that have been strained by life changes or loss.

She draws on a mix of practical methods to guide change. That includes helping people set small, manageable goals, working through strong emotions, and looking at patterns that keep them stuck. The work often focuses on real-world steps the person can try between sessions.

People come to Beth when life feels out of balance or when a major transition has left them unsure what to do next. She offers steady support while helping people sort priorities, repair relationships, and regain a sense of direction.

Beth keeps the tone direct and kind. She aims to create a space where people can speak honestly, name what matters to them, and practice new ways of responding to stress and loss.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening and responding to what the person needs in the moment. Online sessions let the therapist follow the person’s lead, reflect emotions, and help clients name what matters most. Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on understanding and reorganizing strong emotions that shape close connections; it can help people process relationship pain and build clearer emotional responses during life changes. Motivational Interviewing helps people identify their own reasons for change and supports practical next steps when someone feels stuck.

Deciding which approach to use is a team effort. The therapist will suggest methods based on a person’s goals, comfort level, and the issues they bring. Together they’ll try strategies, check how they’re working, and adjust the plan as needed.

Confirm the specific session formats before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week and to schedule shorter or more frequent check-ins when needed. It can also reduce travel time and help people focus on emotional goals from their everyday life. Licensed professionals commonly use these approaches to deliver practical, goal-oriented support in remote sessions.
