More about Elizabeth

  • 3 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

I am licensed in California with over 12 years of experience working with older adults and adults experiencing mental illness. I am also experienced working with caregivers experiencing burnout. I have worked with clients through issues such as stress and anxiety, family conflicts, coping with grief and loss, & depression. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. While my techniques mainly focus around your thoughts, behaviors, and mindfulness, I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Creating lasting changes through therapy is not always as easy process, but I will be here to support you every step of the way.

Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
