Elizabeth Lucarelli

I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 20 years of experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, and major life transitions. I have worked in medical, behavioral health, and community settings and am licensed in Florida, Ohio, and Michigan. I bring a calm, compassionate, and down-to-earth approach to therapy, and I value creating a space where you feel comfortable, respected, and understood. My goal is to help you feel supported while building practical skills to navigate life with more confidence.

I view therapy as a collaborative process where you are the driver and I am the navigator. You set the pace and priorities, and I bring structure, guidance, and tools to help you move forward. I use evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), solution-focused therapy, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing. Together, we focus on practical strategies that support meaningful and sustainable change.

In your first session, we will talk about what brought you to therapy, your current concerns, and what you would like support with. I will gather relevant background information at a comfortable pace, and you are always welcome to ask questions along the way. We may begin identifying coping skills or practical next steps right away. By the end of the session, you can expect to have a clear understanding of the treatment focus and a plan for our work together.
