About Elizabeth
Elizabeth Blackwood is an LCSW licensed in Oregon with ten years of clinical experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and parenting strain. She also supports work on self esteem and compassion fatigue. She speaks English and Spanish and accepts international clients.
Before moving into mostly clinical work, she spent time in advocacy and social work roles. That background shaped a practical, down-to-earth style. Sessions focus on skill building, emotional and behavioral regulation, and boosting motivation and confidence.
Her approach is collaborative and tailored. She listens first, then helps set small, doable goals. Therapy sessions mix talking through situations with concrete skills to try between meetings. The aim is steady progress rather than quick fixes.
She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide work on anxiety, trauma-related symptoms, and parenting challenges. Therapy also addresses attachment concerns, communication problems, guilt and shame, impulsivity, and post-traumatic stress. She is familiar with pregnancy and childbirth related stress and supports women managing those transitions.
People who come to her often want practical tools and clear steps. She helps people practice new responses and notice what changes. If someone prefers Spanish, sessions can be in Spanish. To begin, the site process matches people and schedules a first appointment.
