Lizette also supports people dealing with isolation, body image worries, social anxiety, guilt, and attachment questions.
Background and approach
Her approach combines curiosity about a person’s past with practical steps for change. She often uses a psychodynamic perspective to trace where behaviors and patterns began. She also draws on cognitive behavioral strategies and dialectical behavior ideas to help with emotion regulation and coping skills.
Sessions are conversational but focused. Lizette listens for patterns and then helps clients try new ways of responding. She encourages small experiments between sessions to build confidence and clearer thinking.
Lizette trained and practices in California and holds the LMFT credential, which identifies her as a licensed marriage and family therapist. She has four years of clinical experience and conducts sessions in English. If someone wants to explore change and increase self-understanding, she can help map a path forward.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person without judgment. It helps people feel heard and supported while they sort out what they want to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical techniques to shift unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety and mood concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers skills for managing intense emotions and improving coping strategies when feelings feel overwhelming.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then try techniques that fit the person’s needs. Adjustments are expected as trust builds and new information emerges during sessions.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which makes it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can support shorter check-ins or ongoing skill practice. These options aim to make it simpler to keep therapy consistent while balancing day-to-day life.
