About Elizabeth
Elizabeth Giele is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who brings 35 years of experience to counseling and coaching. She approaches therapy in a person-centered way, listening closely to what matters most to each client. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, life changes, sleep difficulties, relationship questions, and career concerns.
Elizabeth uses a strengths-based style that highlights clients' values and goals. She combines mindfulness, narrative work, and insight-oriented methods to help people notice patterns and make changes. Clients can expect straightforward conversations about what is working and what they want to change.
Her background includes long experience with grief and coping around serious illness and end-of-life concerns. She also supports people dealing with caregiver stress, compassion fatigue, chronic illness, and the strain of aging family members. Practical coaching around career, life purpose, and rebuilding after loss is part of her work.
Elizabeth also addresses issues related to identity and relationships, including LGBT concerns, intimacy questions, and family of origin problems. She helps people manage anger, low self-esteem, and symptoms of depression or ADHD by building skills and increasing self-compassion.
Based in New Mexico, she blends clinical and coaching techniques to help clients move toward clearer choices and steadier daily rhythms. The focus is on small, practical steps people can use right away to feel more rested, more in control, and more aligned with their values.
Therapeutic approaches for online care and insight
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take small steps that match those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and making life changes. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening without judgment and building a trusting relationship so clients can explore their needs and goals at their own pace. Elizabeth takes a collaborative stance in choosing approaches. She will work with each person to see which methods fit their goals and personality. Finding the right mix is part of the early sessions, and adjustments are made as needs change. Please confirm the current session formats before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by removing travel time or allowing shorter check-ins during a workday. It can also let people keep continuity of care when managing health concerns or caregiving responsibilities. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, mindfulness practices, and narrative work to an online setting so therapy stays focused on practical steps and clearer daily routines.Areas of expertise
