About Elizabeth
LCSW, licensed in New York, with 26 years of clinical experience, Elizabeth Devivo helps people managing stress, anxiety, grief, anger, depression, and major life changes. She names chronic illness and health-related change as frequent concerns she addresses. Elizabeth uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and focuses on practical steps people can use between sessions.
Elizabeth works in clear, straightforward language. She helps people sort feelings, identify what is getting in the way, and try new ways of coping. Sessions emphasize problem-solving, emotional understanding, and building skills that fit daily life. She encourages small experiments and gradual changes rather than sudden overhauls.
Her practice draws on approaches shown to help with mood and stress regulation. She explains what a particular method looks like and why it might help, then tries it with the person to see if it fits. The work includes short-term strategies for immediate relief and longer-term habits for sustaining change.
Elizabeth has spent decades working with adults in New York and brings experience with complex emotional responses to illness and loss. She focuses on what people can do now to feel steadier and function better at home, work, and in relationships. Her sessions mix listening with practical tools.
People are asked to complete a brief matching questionnaire before scheduling a first session. The practice uses a cancellable subscription model for sessions; costs vary with location. Language of care is English and international clients are not accepted.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online care
Elizabeth describes her work as rooted in evidence-based therapeutic techniques that teach practical skills. One approach involves learning concrete strategies to reduce anxiety and manage stress, such as pacing tasks, breathing and attention exercises, and brief behavioral experiments to test new habits. These techniques aim to lower immediate distress and make daily tasks feel more manageable.Another approach focuses on coping with grief and life changes by helping people name their losses, map how those losses affect routines and roles, and try small routines that restore a sense of control. This work is paced so people can try changes between sessions and report what helps.
Finding the right method is collaborative. The therapist will explain several evidence-based options, try them in session, and adjust choices based on the client’s goals and preferences rather than assuming one fixed path.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current session options before booking. In practical terms, online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - shorter check-ins can fit between errands or work breaks, and remote sessions reduce travel time. Licensed professionals can use a mix of listening, skill teaching, and short homework tasks that integrate into everyday routines.
