Elizabeth Tebo , LCSW

Elizabeth Tebo is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in California with 20 years of professional experience. As an LCSW she holds a clinical social work license that authorizes her to provide psychotherapy and social support services.

She has focused her work on helping people manage stress and anxiety, navigate relationship challenges, process trauma and abuse, and cope with grief and loss. Her practice emphasizes practical coping strategies alongside deeper exploration of patterns that contribute to ongoing distress.

Elizabeth frames clients as the experts of their own stories and looks for strengths to build on during therapy. She acknowledges that seeking change takes courage and offers steady support and empowerment to help clients take the first steps toward a more fulfilling and balanced life.

Approaches for Online Care and Therapeutic Work

Elizabeth often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical skills for managing anxiety, low mood, and stress. CBT focuses on the connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers structured tools to change patterns that interfere with daily life.

She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques to teach emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. DBT can be especially helpful for people who struggle with intense emotions, relationship conflicts, or impulse-driven behaviors.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Elizabeth works with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences and adjusts methods over time so therapy fits the client rather than forcing a single model on every case.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and maintain continuity when life gets hectic. These formats allow licensed professionals and therapists to offer regular support and skills practice without requiring travel, increasing flexibility and accessibility for people in different circumstances.
