About Elizabeth
Elizabeth Lee is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in California. She focuses on helping people who feel stuck by anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, grief, and the effects of trauma. She works with people who are navigating parenting stress, life changes, and relationship strain and speaks English and Spanish.
Elizabeth uses clear, practical methods in sessions. She listens first, then helps clients name what matters most and pick small steps to try between meetings.
Background and approach
She uses talk therapy alongside trauma-focused tools and creative expression when words are hard to find. Her work draws on attachment-focused ideas to understand how early relationships shape current patterns. Internal Family Systems concepts guide gentle inner work to reunite parts of the self that feel at odds.
She also incorporates EMDR as one of the trauma-focused approaches she offers to address distressing memories. Sessions may include exploring family of origin issues, coping with postpartum or pregnancy-related concerns, and working through guilt, shame, or codependency. Elizabeth aims to make progress feel manageable by breaking bigger goals into concrete steps and tracking small changes.
With ten years of clinical experience, she blends client-centered listening with structured trauma work and creative methods. People who want a practical, empathetic approach to reduce anxiety, process past hurts, and build self-compassion may find this a good fit.

Online support
Trauma-informed and Attachment-aware Care Online
Elizabeth draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. This helps people who feel disconnected or who repeat the same relationship mistakes understand why those patterns keep showing up. Attachment work is useful for concerns like trust, closeness, and long-standing relational anxiety.She also uses Trauma-Focused Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) for people struggling with painful memories and intense emotional reactions. Trauma-focused work helps by slowing things down, teaching grounding skills, and processing memories in ways that reduce their hold. EMDR is used as one approach to support processing distressing experiences when appropriate.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, symptoms, and preferences and will suggest methods together with the client. That collaborative process helps decide whether attachment work, trauma-focused strategies, EMDR, or a mix of approaches will be most helpful.
Online sessions include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video is good for full conversations and emotional work, phone can fit into a busy day or low bandwidth situations, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing processing between meetings. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, childcare, or other commitments.
