Elizabeth Haughey , LPCC

Elizabeth Haughey is a California-based LPCC (Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor) with 14 years of clinical experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, eating disorders, and depression. She brings a compassionate, respectful approach to each therapeutic relationship and adapts dialogue and treatment plans to reflect each person’s unique circumstances and goals.

Her training spans several evidence-informed methods, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), client-centered work, trauma-informed practices, and attachment-based interventions. Rather than relying on a single technique, she integrates these approaches so clients can benefit from multiple perspectives in the course of therapy. Elizabeth values the client as the expert on their own life while offering observations that can illuminate patterns that may be limiting growth.

Motivated by her own life-changing experience with therapy, she prioritizes creating a space where people feel seen, heard, and able to build trust. She supports and empowers individuals who are ready to take the courageous first steps toward a more fulfilling and happier life, helping them identify practical pathways forward and cultivate lasting change.

Integrative Approaches and Online Therapeutic Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify what matters most to them and take committed action toward those values, even when difficult thoughts or feelings arise. It can be useful for stress, anxiety, and shifting unhelpful avoidance patterns.

Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships influence current ways of relating, emotion regulation, and trust. It can help people address abandonment, attachment issues, and challenges in close relationships by building a stronger sense of safety and connection.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) centers on identifying and adjusting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is practical and skills-oriented, often supporting people with anxiety, depression, body image concerns, and patterns that maintain distress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Elizabeth Haughey works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors treatment so clients can try techniques and adapt the plan over time.

Online therapy in her practice can take place via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for scheduling and access from different locations. These options support continuity of care and make it easier for people to engage in therapy in ways that suit their daily life and comfort level.
