About Elizabeth

Elizabeth Racicot is a licensed clinical social worker with two decades of experience in mental health. She focuses on helping people who are dealing with depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, grief, and major life changes. Her style is calm and practical, aiming to help clients find steady ways to cope and move forward.

She often works with adolescents and young adults, offering measured support tailored to each person. Conversations are collaborative and rooted in everyday strategies that fit into real life. Elizabeth emphasizes building self-worth and managing stress one step at a time.

Over twenty years she has handled a wide range of concerns including mood disorders, postpartum depression, seasonal mood shifts, and intense grief related to hospice and end-of-life care. She also addresses relationship strains like communication problems, blended family issues, and attachment or abandonment concerns. Practical tools and steady guidance are central to her approach.

Outside the therapy room she is a mom, wife, sister, and avid reader who enjoys crafting, camping, and family traditions around the holidays. Those personal interests shape her warm, relatable approach to therapy. She focuses on the client’s well-being and what that actually looks like in daily life.

People who meet with Elizabeth can expect straightforward support, clear goals, and gentle encouragement to try new ways of coping. She aims to help clients reclaim a sense of purpose and quiet the self-criticism that gets in the way of feeling better.

Approaches that help build self-worth and manage change

Elizabeth uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage mood and build self-esteem. One approach focuses on practical coping skills and problem-solving to reduce overwhelming anxiety and improve daily functioning. These techniques teach small, doable steps for managing stress and mood swings.

Another area emphasizes grief and life-change work that helps people make sense of loss and find ways to keep living with meaning. This kind of work combines talking through feelings with concrete actions that support healing and routine when life is unstable.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to match the methods to their goals, needs, and preferences. Together they will try strategies, track what helps, and adjust the plan as needed so therapy fits into real life.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm the current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work, school, or family life and can reduce time spent traveling. It also allows shorter check-ins when schedules are tight and options that don’t require being on camera if that helps someone stay engaged.
