Elizabeth Racicot, LCSW

Elizabeth Racicot is a licensed therapist practicing in Arizona with 20 years of experience supporting people through complex emotional challenges. She holds an LCSW, which stands for Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and combines practical strategies with compassionate care to address issues such as depression, anxiety, social isolation, and major life transitions. Her work emphasizes helping individuals strengthen self-esteem, manage stress, and navigate periods of significant change with dignity and hope.

Her practice is especially attuned to adolescents and young adults and to anyone seeking a thoughtful, measured approach to therapy. Elizabeth prioritizes collaborative, individualized support and partners with each person to identify meaningful pathways toward emotional wellness and personal growth. She aims to offer tools and perspectives that fit each person’s unique situation and goals.

Outside of her professional role, Elizabeth is a mom, wife, sister, daughter, friend, and book dragon. She enjoys time with her family and their two dogs and cat, remains active in her mainline Christian Church and Girl Scouts, and spends summers camping. She delights in Christmas traditions - decorating, baking, gifting, and family connection - and pursues crafting and art in many forms. While she values these personal roles, her focus while wearing her therapist hat is the client’s well being.

Evidence-Informed Approaches Delivered Online

Elizabeth draws on evidence-based, skills-focused strategies that teach practical tools for managing stress, anxiety, and mood challenges. These approaches help people develop concrete coping skills - such as emotion regulation and problem-solving techniques - that can reduce overwhelm and support day-to-day functioning.

She also integrates attachment and family-focused work to explore relationship patterns and communication. This style of work can be helpful for issues like abandonment, blended family adjustments, and conflicts that arise within families or between caregivers and young people. Additionally, Elizabeth offers grief-focused supportive counseling tailored for loss, end-of-life concerns, and transitions, helping individuals process feelings and find ways to adapt.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Elizabeth collaborates with each person to identify which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts the plan over time in partnership with the client and other licensed professionals as needed.

Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to access consistent support from varied locations.
