About Elizabeth
Elizabeth Diaz is a licensed mental health counselor who draws on 12 years of experience helping people find steadier ground during life changes. She is licensed as an LMHC in Florida and an LPC in Virginia. Elizabeth uses plain, direct conversation to help people sort through stress, anxiety, grief, or big transitions.
She has worked with adolescents and adults across inpatient, partial hospitalization, and outpatient settings. That background shaped a practical style that focuses on day-to-day coping and clear next steps.
Background and approach
Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented rather than long lectures. Elizabeth blends several approaches to match each person’s needs. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take committed action.
She applies Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot and shift unhelpful thinking. Client-centered work keeps the conversation grounded in what matters to the individual. Common concerns she helps with include stress, depression, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting strain, trauma and abuse, grief, ADHD, and questions around gender and sexual identity.
She also supports people working through attachment, abandonment, blended family dynamics, and fertility-related stress. Elizabeth speaks English and Spanish and sees clients in Florida as well as international clients online. She focuses on practical skills, clearer communication, and rebuilding routines so people can move forward with more confidence.
Therapeutic approaches for online care
Elizabeth often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people identify what matters most and take small steps toward those values, which can ease feelings of being stuck. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. Client-centered work provides a supportive conversation that centers the person's concerns and priorities.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and past experiences and adapt methods as needed. Together they will try strategies, check what helps, and adjust the plan based on what the person finds useful.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video works well for in-depth conversations and visual cues. Phone calls can fit a break at work or be easier when bandwidth is low. Live chat and text messaging allow brief check-ins or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit care into a busy life while working with licensed professionals.
