About Elizabeth
Elizabeth Racicot is an LCSW - Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing in Arizona with 20 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes. Elizabeth prefers a thoughtful, measured approach and aims to help people find practical ways to cope and move forward.
She commonly supports adolescents and young adults, offering steady, direct guidance for growing self-esteem and managing stress. Sessions focus on concrete skills and small changes that fit into daily life. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address mood concerns and periods of transition.
Elizabeth pays attention to attachment and family-related issues such as abandonment, adoption and foster care concerns, blended family tensions, and communication problems. She also works with people dealing with postpartum depression, seasonal mood shifts, and feelings of isolation or emptiness. Her practice includes end-of-life and hospice counseling when those needs arise.
In a session she talks through what’s happening, identifies manageable steps, and checks what is working. She values collaboration and clear planning so progress is visible and realistic. Her background across twenty years brings experience with a wide range of mood and adjustment issues.
Outside of clinical work she is a parent and caregiver, active in community and family life, and enjoys crafting and outdoor time. That personal side informs a practical, day-to-day orientation to coping and recovery.
How evidence-based approaches translate to online sessions
Elizabeth uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques aimed at clear, practical changes. Cognitive-style methods focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and practicing different, more helpful thinking patterns to reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms. Behavioral strategies include graded exposure and activity planning to rebuild confidence and reduce avoidance around social situations.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that fit their goals, preferences, and day-to-day life. That process includes trying methods, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as the biography does not specify them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Some formats also let people manage sessions when they prefer not to use video or to schedule around work or school commitments.
