About Elizabeth
Elizabeth Sarinana is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in California with 16 years of professional experience. She helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, relationship challenges, and grief. She speaks English and Spanish and accepts international clients.
She works in a straightforward, practical way. Conversations focus on what is happening now and what can change to make daily life easier. She treats problems like difficulty managing stress, trouble communicating with a partner, or feeling stuck after a loss one step at a time. Sessions often include talking through feelings, identifying patterns, and trying small changes between meetings.
Elizabeth values the client’s perspective and treats each person as the expert on their own life. That means she listens for strengths and past coping strategies, then builds on them. She also addresses related concerns such as abandonment or attachment issues, shame and guilt, and challenges around money or life purpose.
Her work often helps people navigating separation or divorce, persistent loneliness, or low motivation. Practical skills for handling mood problems and rebuilding self-respect are common topics. Conversations may also cover women’s issues and recovery of self-love after painful events.
To begin, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Costs vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
BHow sessions work
Approaches used in remote sessions and how they help
Elizabeth draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on present problems and practical skills. One common approach emphasizes identifying patterns of thought and behavior that keep stress and low mood active, then testing small changes to break those patterns. This can help with anxiety, depression, and motivation issues.Another approach concentrates on attachment and relationship patterns. It looks at how early and recent relationship experiences shape communication and trust. That work is useful for people dealing with abandonment concerns, communication problems, or separation and divorce.
Choosing the right method is part of the work together. She will discuss options, try approaches that fit the person’s needs and preferences, and adjust as progress is made. The client’s goals guide which techniques are used and how sessions unfold.
Because session formats are not listed in the biography, confirm current online session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, keep shorter check-ins on a lunch break, or avoid travel time. It can also allow sessions in English or Spanish and make scheduling across time zones possible for international clients.
