About Elizabeth
Elizabeth Giele is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) practicing in New Mexico with 35 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, grief, career and life changes, and concerns such as compassion fatigue and ADHD. She speaks English and works with adults on relationship, intimacy, and self-esteem issues among other challenges.
She uses a person-centered, strengths-based stance. That means she listens without judgment and learns what matters to each person. Sessions mix practical coaching with therapeutic work so clients can handle day-to-day pressures and long-term goals.
Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and mindfulness to help people notice their values and act on them. Narrative and client-centered methods are used to sort through stories and make sense of personal meaning. These methods are applied directly to problems like grief, caregiving stress, chronic illness, and career shifts.
Elizabeth also brings experience addressing end-of-life and hospice-related concerns, caregiver strain, and veteran-related issues. She works with people facing family-of-origin problems, isolation, and midlife transitions, offering conversational tools and behavioral ideas to cope better.
Practical matters are part of the work. She helps people manage sleeping problems, anger, and everyday functioning while also supporting exploration of life purpose and forgiveness. To start, readers can follow the site's steps to match and schedule a first session.
BHow sessions work
Approaches used in online sessions and practical fit
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most and take small steps toward those values even when feelings are uncomfortable. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people feel heard and can draw on their own strengths to solve problems. It supports work on relationships, self-esteem, and decision-making. Mindfulness approaches teach simple attention skills that reduce reactivity and improve sleeping and anger management.The therapist treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. Together they review goals, current struggles, and what feels most useful. She adapts the mix of coaching, acceptance work, and reflective listening according to each person’s needs and preferences.
