About Elizabeth
Elizabeth Santilli is a licensed marriage and family therapist who focuses on helping people manage anxiety, stress, and the shock of panic attacks. She is based in Florida and speaks English. Elizabeth aims to make therapy feel approachable and straightforward for people who are worried and looking for clear steps forward.
She works with clients to understand what triggers their anxiety and panic and to build small, practical skills for managing symptoms day to day. Sessions emphasize self-compassion and steady progress rather than quick fixes. Elizabeth also supports people dealing with trauma, low self-esteem, and the pressures that often come with parenting and family life.
Her work leans on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide each session. She focuses on helping clients notice patterns, practice coping strategies, and try new behaviors that reduce distress. The tone in sessions is warm and respectful, with attention to each person’s identity and background.
Elizabeth has five years of clinical experience as an LMFT, licensed marriage and family therapist. She uses that experience to tailor tools to each person’s goals and daily routines. Her practice pays particular attention to women’s issues and building self-love alongside symptom management.
To begin, she encourages people to name one manageable goal and take the first step toward it. Therapy is presented as a collaborative process where progress is built in small, reliable steps.
How evidence-based techniques translate to online care
Elizabeth draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on symptom reduction and skill building. One common approach emphasizes identifying patterns that feed anxiety and panic, then practicing step-by-step coping strategies to reduce the intensity of panic attacks. Another approach centers on building self-compassion and improving self-esteem through focused exercises that change unhelpful self-talk and reinforce healthier behaviors.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques match their goals and daily life. Goals, preferences, and what feels workable in day-to-day routines guide how sessions proceed and which methods are used.
Practical benefits of online therapy can include greater flexibility for fitting sessions into a busy schedule and the ability to meet without traveling. Some people find remote sessions make it easier to check in during a lunch break or to keep regular weekly appointments when life is hectic. Because session formats are not specified in the biography, confirm current session options before booking to see which formats are offered and which best fit your needs.
