About Elizabeth
Elizabeth Tebo is a licensed clinical social worker with twenty years of experience supporting people through hard times. She works with those facing stress, anxiety, grief, mood disorders, trauma, and relationship or intimacy concerns. She centers practical problem-solving and steady support during change.
She believes people know their own story and brings curiosity to learn what matters to each person. Sessions focus on clear goals and small steps that build confidence over time.
How Elizabeth works
She encourages gentle self-compassion alongside realistic action. Her approach blends practical therapies that teach skills for managing intense feelings and changing unhelpful patterns. She uses techniques that help people notice body sensations, challenge stressful thoughts, and try new ways of responding.
The work tends to be hands-on and aimed at making day-to-day life feel more manageable. Elizabeth has experience with caregivers, first responders, fertility and end-of-life concerns, and survivors of sexual assault and abuse. She also supports people coping with bipolar disorder, depression, career stress, and family of origin issues.
That background informs a flexible, trauma-aware style. In sessions she listens, offers tools, and helps people test small changes between meetings. Therapy may include mindfulness practices, breathing and body-based work, or structured skill-building.
The goal is to help people move toward clearer choices and a steadier sense of self.

Online support options
Practical approaches for online healing
Elizabeth uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy as core parts of her online work. CBT helps people identify and change thoughts and habits that worsen anxiety or depression, and it teaches straightforward skills for daily life. Mindfulness Therapy focuses on present-moment awareness and simple practices that reduce rumination and improve tolerance for difficult feelings.She also integrates Somatic techniques when body sensations are part of someone’s distress. Somatic work involves noticing breath, posture, or tension and using gentle movement or grounding to ease physical responses linked to trauma or stress. Together these approaches offer skills for emotions, behaviors, and bodily reactions.
Finding the right mix is a shared process. Elizabeth will talk with each person about goals and preferences, try approaches together, and adjust the plan over time. The emphasis is on what helps a person feel steadier and more able to act in ways they value.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video is useful for interactive skill work, phone can be better when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can support brief check-ins or ongoing coaching. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, or travel.
