About Elizabeth

Elizabeth Racicot is an LCSW - Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing in Arizona with 20 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, low self-esteem, and major life changes. Elizabeth also supports concerns related to abandonment, adoption and foster care, attachment issues, blended family dynamics, communication challenges, and life purpose.

Her work is practical and straightforward. She helps people identify what is most pressing and then tries out strategies that fit their daily life. Sessions focus on clear steps for managing mood, reducing overwhelm, and repairing strained relationships when that is part of the concern.

Elizabeth has spent two decades working in mental health settings and with individuals at transitional moments. That background informs how she supports people wrestling with emptiness, isolation, postpartum mood concerns, seasonal mood shifts, and end-of-life or hospice related matters. She brings experience rather than quick fixes.

Outside of clinical work she is a parent and active in her local church and community activities. Her personal life includes family, pets, crafting, and outdoor time, which she sometimes references to make practical points that connect to everyday routines and values.

People who come to Elizabeth can expect a measured, steady approach that focuses on concrete coping skills, clearer communication, and next steps for figuring out purpose and direction after change.

Approaches for addressing mood, grief, and life changes

Elizabeth draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and problem solving. Cognitive approaches help people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and test new ways of thinking, which can reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms. Behavioral strategies concentrate on changing routines and activity levels to lift mood and increase a sense of control, useful for depression, SAD, and low motivation.

Finding the right approach is treated as a team effort. The therapist discusses options, tries techniques in sessions, and adjusts the plan based on what the client finds helpful. This collaboration aims to match methods to a person’s goals and daily life rather than imposing a single way of working.

The profile does not specify session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into work or family schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or avoid travel time. Online work can also make it easier to bring real-life situations into discussion and practice new communication or coping strategies between sessions.
