Elizabeth Lee

Elizabeth Lee is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) who focuses on supporting women facing anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and the effects of trauma. She speaks English and Spanish and aims to make therapy approachable for people who feel stuck or disconnected from others.

She uses creative methods, including art therapy, to help clients name feelings when words are hard to find. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, or EMDR, is part of her practice and is used to help the brain process troubling memories that keep causing distress.

Elizabeth takes a warm, nonjudgmental approach. Sessions center on listening first, then working together to build practical steps that feel doable. She encourages small changes that add up over time and helps people reconnect with what brings meaning and joy.

Her work draws on Attachment-Based Therapy and Internal Family Systems ideas to understand how relationships and inner parts influence mood and behavior. Trauma-Focused Therapy is also included when past events are affecting present life.

With ten years of clinical experience in California, she helps people address parenting stress, grief, postpartum concerns, codependency, dissociation, and family of origin issues. Elizabeth also supports clients exploring multicultural concerns, life purpose, and self-love as they move toward greater wellbeing.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Elizabeth draws from Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early and current relationships shape feelings and behavior; this approach helps when anxiety, codependency, or relationship patterns are causing distress. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so clients feel heard and can find their own solutions; it is useful for low self-esteem, life transitions, and grief. EMDR, or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, is used to help the brain process traumatic memories that keep triggering strong reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will help clients decide which methods fit best based on their goals, symptoms, and preferences. That choice is collaborative and can change as progress is made.

Session logistics and formats are not specified here, so confirm current session options before booking. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, shorten commute time, and allow quieter check-ins between tasks. Others appreciate being able to continue work without rearranging travel. Discuss scheduling needs when you sign up so session length and timing can match your routine and goals.
