Background and approach
Sessions mix listening, practical tools, and gentle coaching to support change. Elizabeth has long experience helping people through grief and major life transitions. That includes coping with illness, end-of-life concerns, caregiver strain, and loss of work or relationships.
She also supports people navigating questions around sexuality and LGBT concerns. Her work includes helping with depression, sleep problems, anger, self-esteem, and relationship challenges. She assists people facing chronic pain, chronic illness, or disability and those feeling isolated or overwhelmed by caregiving duties.
Career and life-purpose conversations are part of her coaching background. Elizabeth practices from New Mexico and offers sessions in English. She combines practical problem-solving with deeper reflection to help people make choices that match their values and goals.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then choose actions that match their values. This can be useful for anxiety, stress, and decisions about life direction. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening without judgment and building a trusting relationship so people can explore what matters and find their own solutions.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Then the plan can combine ACT, client-centered listening, mindfulness practices, and narrative work to match those needs in a collaborative way.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video is good for full conversation and visual cues. Phone can work when bandwidth is lower or a voice check-in is preferred. Live chat and texting make shorter check-ins and ongoing coaching-style contact easier to fit into a busy day. These options make it simpler to keep regular appointments and use therapy tools between sessions.
