Elizabeth Racicot, LCSW

Elizabeth Racicot is an LCSW - Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing in Arizona with 20 years of experience. She helps people facing depression, anxiety, stress, grief, low self-esteem, and major life changes. She also lists blended family issues and related family concerns among her focus areas.

She typically works with adults and young adults who need practical strategies for everyday problems. Sessions cover managing moods, coping with transitions, and rebuilding a sense of purpose after loss or upheaval. She pays attention to issues such as attachment concerns, abandonment, and communication problems that often come up in blended households.

Her approach is straightforward and collaborative. She emphasizes clear steps people can try between sessions and talks through how those steps might fit into daily life. The work often includes identifying patterns that keep problems going, then practicing different ways of responding to those patterns.

Elizabeth draws on techniques supported by research to address mood disorders, postpartum depression, seasonal affective disorder, and disruptive mood dysregulation disorder when relevant. She also provides support related to adoption, foster care, hospice and end-of-life concerns, guilt, shame, and isolation.

Outside of clinical work she is a parent and stays active in community and family life. That personal perspective informs a practical, matter-of-fact style in sessions. To begin, readers are invited to follow the site's online steps to learn more and schedule a first appointment.
