About Elizabeth

Elizabeth Garibay is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Texas who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, self-esteem concerns, and a wide range of related challenges.

Background and approach

She also addresses relationship and intimacy issues, trauma and abuse, eating and sleeping concerns, parenting and career stress, compassion fatigue, ADHD, and substance use and codependency issues. Elizabeth brings attention to multicultural concerns and works in both English and Spanish to make care accessible to bilingual clients.

Her therapeutic style combines evidence-informed methods with a compassionate, client-centered stance. She draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, existential perspectives, and mindfulness practices to tailor support to each person’s needs.

Elizabeth emphasizes understanding how individual struggles connect with systemic and cultural contexts, and she offers practical skills alongside empathic reflection. With six years of clinical experience, Elizabeth aims to collaborate with clients to build resilience, strengthen self-understanding, and find workable strategies for daily life.

She frames therapy as a joint process of exploration and skill development, helping clients identify meaningful next steps toward emotional wellbeing.

Evidence-informed approaches for online support

Elizabeth commonly integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy into online work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression and to improve daily functioning. ACT emphasizes values-based action and acceptance skills, helping people build psychological flexibility and cope with difficult emotions while pursuing meaningful goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Elizabeth works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors interventions by combining practical skill-building with reflective exploration so clients can test what feels most helpful in real life.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to maximize flexibility and access. These formats allow clients to engage in regular treatment from different locations and to choose the communication style that best supports their progress and schedule.
