About Elizabeth
Elizabeth Garibay is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, and low self-esteem. She speaks English and Spanish and aims to make therapy approachable for people from many backgrounds. She focuses on practical help for everyday struggles.
That includes relationship strain, parenting stress, sleep and eating concerns, anger, and coping with big life changes. She also supports people facing codependency, substance use issues, and compassion fatigue.
Background and approach
Elizabeth uses a mix of proven therapy methods tailored to each person. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical skills, client-centered practices, and existential ideas to help people notice patterns and try new strategies. Her approach is warm and culturally aware.
She pays attention to how culture and identity shape emotional challenges and coping. Bilingual work in English and Spanish helps her connect with clients who prefer either language. Sessions aim to build practical skills and clearer self-understanding.
Clients can expect a collaborative process where goals are set together and progress is checked along the way. Her six years of experience informs a steady, empathetic style.
Therapeutic approaches that translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on values-driven actions rather than getting stuck in avoidance. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete skills to change patterns that keep distress going. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and eating concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides practical skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can help with anger, relationships, and overwhelming emotions.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to match methods to a person's goals and preferences. Clients and the therapist check what helps and adjust tools over time so sessions feel useful and relevant.
Online therapy with Elizabeth uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care flexible. Video calls let people see nonverbal cues for deeper conversation. Phone sessions require less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat and messaging are good for shorter check-ins, skill practice, or when typing feels easier than talking. These options make it simpler to keep consistent work on anxiety and other concerns despite a busy life.
