About Elizabeth

Elizabeth Tebo is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with twenty years of professional experience in California. She focuses on helping people who are stressed, anxious, grieving, or wrestling with relationship and intimacy-related concerns. She also supports those facing mood challenges such as bipolar disorder and depression, and people adjusting to life changes or caregiver strain.

Her style is straightforward and strengths-based. She treats clients as the experts on their own lives and aims to build on what is already working. Sessions are practical and focused on clear steps people can try between meetings.

Elizabeth uses a mix of approaches that match the issue at hand. She draws from cognitive behavioral methods to identify thinking patterns, dialectical ideas to manage intense emotions, and somatic and mindfulness practices to help people notice and use bodily signals. She also incorporates solution-focused techniques to set short-term goals.

Clients can expect a collaborative process that balances skill-building with emotional support. The work often includes learning new coping tools, practicing them in daily life, and checking what helps or needs adjusting. Elizabeth emphasizes compassion and steady progress rather than quick fixes.

People seeking help for grief, trauma, relationship strain, sleep problems, career stress, or compassion fatigue will find relevant support. Anyone interested in beginning the process is asked to use the Start Therapy flow and complete the short matching questionnaire to move forward.

How therapy approaches translate to online care

Many of Elizabeth's methods lend themselves well to remote work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on noticing unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors, which often translates into concrete homework and short in-session practice. Dialectical Behavior Therapy emphasizes emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills that can be taught, practiced, and reviewed in sessions. Mindfulness Therapy helps people develop present-moment awareness through simple exercises that can be guided during a meeting.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Elizabeth works collaboratively to choose or blend methods based on a person's goals, needs, and preferences. She checks in regularly and adjusts techniques if something is not helping or does not fit a client's day-to-day life.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Many people appreciate that remote work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, require less travel, and allow for shorter check-ins when time is limited. Licensed professionals can guide practical skill practice, homework, and emotion regulation work in ways that fit into everyday routines.
