"WORK. LIFE. BALANCE. If you are driven and ambitious or a passionate creative, we can work together toward a balance among the professional, personal, and inner aspects of your life. You might also want to work with me to develop concrete social strategies to navigate the challenging interpersonal dynamics of a competitive workplace. My area of expertise is identity development. I have a strong background helping people manage issues related to personal and social identity, crisis/trauma, substance abuse, and the emotions that can underlie destructive behavior. Depending upon your needs and beliefs, I also address the role of spirituality."

"Sometimes in life we find ourselves struggling with difficult emotions and dysfunctional behaviors, despite our best intentions and efforts. Emotions such as depression, anxiety, unresolved grief, persistent anger or resentment, or feeling something is just not right may bother you. You may have concerns about sexual problems, intimacy problems, or your sexuality or gender. You may be troubled in relationships by recurrent, frustrating interactional patterns that don't lead to resolution. Sometimes we would like to change repetitive unhealthy thoughts and behaviors, but don't know how. You CAN learn to deal more effectively with life's challenges and you CAN feel better!"

"Reaching out for help is a big step and I acknowledge the courage in your efforts to find healing. It is my true belief that difficulties in life are inevitable, but suffering is optional; there is help.

The counseling environment is warm, collaborative, and designed to foster healing and growth. As your therapist, my entire focus would be to remain present with you as I express my genuine regard for your wellbeing."

"There are times in all of our lives when we could benefit from having a safe, non-judgmental space in which to share, problem-solve, and learn about ourselves. No matter what brings you to counseling, I hope to provide the opportunity for self-exploration, collaboration, and personal growth. In my practice, I work with adolescents and adults and specialize in the areas of anxiety, depression, perfectionism, relationships, and life transitions."

"Feeling in a stuck place? Wanting more freedom? Sensing an inner nudge that it's time to make a change? Let's work together to help it happen. Known as "Liz" to my clients, I am a practicing Licensed Clinical Social Worker; an experienced therapist in grief and loss; a strong supporter of the LGBT community; and a seasoned spiritual director/nurturer. I am also trained in EMDR for processing and healing physical/emotional trauma, including PTSD.

"Things can easily get overwhelming. Before you know it, everything seems to fall apart. You try each day to get things back on track, to worry less, to force on a smile but nothing works. Other people seem bothered by you or maybe you can't stand being around other people anymore. Either way, your relationships are hurting and so are you. Nothing feels like it used to. I can help you try to get back to your normal self, hopefully even better than before."

"I believe that people are resilient as I witness it every day. However, life can be challenging. Whether the challenge is a situational stressor, unexpected event, a transition, life experience, personal history, relationships, or our own internal struggle, these challenges can impact our lives and functioning in unexpected ways that even the most resilient person can have difficulties coping with or processing. Therapy can be helpful in addressing life's difficulties and making our emotional pain transformative. I also believe that for therapy to be helpful, the client's emotional safety and fit between the client and therapist are critical."

"I feel privileged when a distressed family, couple, or individual allows me to accompany and guide them through their healing journeys.

"In life we frequently encounter obstacles between where we are and what we want to achieve. These obstacles can manifest in the form of depression, anxiety, relationship issues, self-esteem issues, or unresolved trauma. Gaining a better understanding of who we are is an important step in creating a sense of personal fulfillment in all aspects of our lives. I work with individuals to gain insight into the influence of not only past events, but also current patterns of beliefs, with a goal of reconciling past hurts, healing past trauma, and breaking the cycle of unhelpful thoughts, beliefs, and reactions."

"Life is tough. Whether you've felt overwhelmed for a long time or you're facing new challenges, now is the time to make positive change. Your courage deserves an environment that is collaborative and solution-focused without being awkward, intimidating, or uncomfortable. As a clinical psychologist, I have practiced cognitive behavioral strategies in diverse settings for the past ten years. I will get to know you and tailor this empirically-validated approach to your unique needs."

"I believe there is hope for people to feel less overwhelmed, depressed, and anxious, and to make positive changes in their lives and relationships. Many people can use help in overcoming life's challenges. Therapy offers a non-judgmental, confidential environment to explore thoughts and feelings and find new methods to cope in order to live a fuller, more enriching life."

"Whether you are struggling with depression, anxiety or feeling overwhelmed by the stressors of everyday life, it helps to know that help is available. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who will listen without judgment, and offer support through life's struggles. I believe that the counseling experience should be a positive one, in which a trusting professional relationship is established between counselor and client."

"Therapy should provide a safe, nonjudgmental relationship through which to explore those parts of you that may make you feel ashamed or afraid, to develop meaningful insights, and to discover your strengths. I have extensive experience working with people seeking to overcome traumatic life events - sexual violations, abuse, neglect, extreme acts of violence - but have found that, in the end, it can sometimes be the seemingly small, overlooked wounds that take longest to heal. No matter how stuck and hopeless you may feel, you have the power to take control and embrace the person you'd like to be."
