About Elizabeth
Elizabeth Penelope Jacobo greets people with a calm, straightforward approach. She is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in California and focuses on helping adults manage stress, anxiety, grief, and depression. Her work often centers on practical steps you can use between sessions.
She uses tools that look at thoughts and behaviors to reduce distress. Mindfulness practices are woven into sessions to help with calm and presence. Motivational interviewing is used when someone wants help finding direction or making changes.
Background and approach
Elizabeth has three years of experience as an LCSW and has particular experience supporting caregivers and people dealing with aging and hospice concerns. She helps people who feel isolated, overwhelmed, or unsure about life purpose. Sessions are adapted to each person's situation rather than following one set plan.
In session she listens closely and helps people notice patterns that keep problems coming back. Conversations are practical and focused on small, doable steps. She aims to make therapy understandable and manageable for busy lives.
Starting therapy is framed as a series of small decisions. Elizabeth encourages clients to move at a pace that feels safe and realistic. She stays involved in planning and adjusts the work as goals change.

Online support
Practical Approaches for Online Support
Elizabeth commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy in online sessions. CBT looks at unhelpful thought patterns and small behavior changes that can reduce anxiety and depression. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to help people feel steadier in daily life.She also draws on Motivational Interviewing when people want help finding direction or making changes. That approach uses gentle questions to uncover what matters most and to build motivation for gradual steps forward. Together, these approaches aim to make therapy concrete and relevant to what you want to change.
Choosing the right method is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which approaches match their goals and preferences. Plans are adjusted as progress is made so the method fits the person, not the other way around.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different routines. Video is helpful for in-depth conversations and exercises, phone can work when bandwidth is limited, and chat or text can be useful for quick check-ins or brief coaching between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and to keep continuity when schedules change.
