After spending time in and out of traditional talk therapy and hypnotherapy I was apprehensive to start up again. From the moment Lizette andI had our first session I knew she was a solid fit due to how grounded, insightful, and experienced she came across. Her approach is both genuine and thoughtful, which really helped me feel that she was a solid fit for me as well. Our sessions have been extremely helpful in gaining a better understanding of myself, my own emotional intelligence and growth. I'm very grateful that I took the chance to try therapy again, but even more so that I was paired with a therapist like Lizette.

Lizette Garcia has been amazing so far and would highly recommend to anyone. After losing my first therapist and having to start searching for a new one it took about 3 attempts to finally find the right therapist which has been Lizette! She makes sure to listen and makes you feel comfortable enough to open up without feeling like you will not be heard.

More about Lizette

  • 4 years' experience

  • LMFT

I truly hold a passion for connecting with others in finding their identities, overcome their struggles, and process their experiences. Do you currently have a goal to increase self-awareness for better understanding of yourself? Do you experience intense emotions that feel difficult to manage on your own? Does it feel like you have lost control and want to learn how to regain control again? If you answered yes to any of these questions, I would love to speak with you and process how I can help.

My areas of experience/interest include eating disorders, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and trauma. As I have explored various therapeutic techniques, I have come to find I work best through the psychodynamic lens. I am a very curious therapist and like to explore where behaviors & struggles stem from for true understanding and healing of each unique individual.

You do not have to have a mental diagnosis to be a client for psychotherapy. Therapy is for anyone who is willing to explore and has the motivation for change. You deserve the opportunity to invest in yourself for your overall wellbeing and improvement in the quality of your life. I would to speak with you to determine if I am the right fit for you.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
