About Elizabeth's clinical background
Elizabeth Cappelletti, MA, LMFT is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with more than 20 years of clinical experience in private practice.
She is also a transformational life coach, certified clinical hypnotherapist, speaker and author.
Sessions draw on evidence-based approaches, blending mindset work, body-oriented practices and nervous system regulation tools.
Where therapy and coaching meet
Therapy often focuses on processing the past. Coaching can push you forward without space for the emotional layers beneath.
Elizabeth's therapeutic coaching lives at the intersection of both.
It holds space for trauma, conditioning, patterns, childhood wounds, relationship dynamics and spiritual shifts, while building the tools, direction and mindset to move forward.
Some clients call this blend elevate therapy, others call it elevate counseling. Either way, it is one integrative practice that adapts its methods instead of asking you to fit a single mold.

An Integrative Way Forward
You’ve learned how to hold it all together. To be strong, capable, successful—the one others rely on.
This is your invitation to step into a different way of being—one rooted in calm, clarity and real connection to yourself.
Book a Free 20-Min CallAnd from the outside, your life may look like it’s working… but internally, something feels off.
Disconnected. Restless. Like no matter how much you achieve, it doesn’t quite feel like enough.
Most approaches focus on fixing your thoughts or managing symptoms— but they miss something deeper.
Because this isn’t just in your mind… it lives in your body, your nervous system and the patterns you’ve carried for years.
And until that’s addressed, real, lasting change can feel just out of reach.
My work is rooted in integrative and somatic healing—blending therapy, coaching and mind-body practices to create transformation that goes beyond insight.
Through approaches like breathwork, hypnotherapy and nervous system regulation, we don’t just talk about change… we help you experience it.
Why this matters
Coaching moves you toward your goals. Therapy helps you understand yourself deeply. My work blends both perspectives — and elevates you beyond old limits.
My work blends psychology, neuroscience, somatic work, spiritual healing and practical strategy so you can:
- Break lifelong patterns
- Rewire limiting beliefs
- Step out of survival mode
- Reclaim your power, purpose & self-worth
- Become the most aligned, grounded, confident version of yourself
This is where you begin to feel more grounded, more clear and more like yourself again. If you’re ready to stop just getting through and start truly feeling aligned in your life, you’re in the right place.

"Even though we never talked about religion or God in our sessions, there was this light and love you held and I couldn't put my finger on it. Through school and everything, I've been able to reflect, and I am so beyond grateful I had you as my therapist showing me the love of Christianity. Even though we never talked about it, I now see it was the light you brought into every session. I didn't realize then, but now I see — and I just wanted to tell you how blessed I feel to have had you speak into my life at such a crucial age. Sending all my love!"
